Table 9-3 shows how the fail-safe switch, jumpers,
and/or Form C contacts should be configured based on
how you want the output to perform during both normal
operation and during network/power loss.

Setting the Fail-Safe Dip
Switch
The fail-safe dip switch determines the sate of the relay
when communication is lost between the board and E2.
The fail-safe dip switches are labeled S2 on the 8RO, and
switch S3 on the 8IO. Each of the eight rockers on the fail-
safe dip switch corresponds to an output on the board. Set
the rocker UP to close the relay and turn the output ON
during network failure. Set the switch DOWN to open the
relay and turn the output OFF during network failure.

Relay Output Test Mode
Newly released versions of the MultiFlex I/O board
family and the 8ROSMT have a new feature that allows
relays to be manually energized and de-energized without
use of an override from a Hand-Held Terminal when the
board is offline. When a MultiFlex is in Relay Output Test
Mode, the output fail-safe dip switches may be used to
cycle the states of the relay outputs. The feature is
designed to help manufacturers of panels test output wir-
ing quickly and easily without need for a site controller or
HHT.

To activate Relay Output Test Mode for MultiFlex, set
switches 1-8 on DIP Switch banks S3 and S4 to the OFF
(LEFT) position. For 8ROSMT, set switches 1-8 on DIP
Switch bank S1 (NETWORK) to the OFF (DOWN) posi-
tion. The board will enter Relay Output Test Mode.

In Relay Output Test Mode, fail-safe dip switches 1-8

and next to switch bank S1 on the 8ROSMT) can be used
to change the state of the relays.

A fail-safe switch in the ON position will cause the
corresponding relay to be energized (i.e., OPEN on the
N.C. terminals, and CLOSED on the N.O. terminals). A
fail-safe switch in the OFF position will cause the relay to
be de-energized (i.e., CLOSED on the N.C. terminals and

fail-safe switch in the OFF position will cause the relay to
be de-energized (i.e., CLOSED on the N.C. terminals and
OPEN on the N.O. terminals).
The LED that shows the output state will also be ON
when the switch is ON and OFF when the switch is OFF.
To exit Relay Output Test Mode, set the address
switches S3 and S4 to any position other than “all OFF.”
The fail-safe switches will resume normal operation.
