Description

Operation 

AlwaysOff : Output is "false" for ever

AlwaysOn : Output is "true" for ever

EngUnitTemperature : It measures the Unit Type (SI-Metric or Imperial). In control manager if the measurement Type is SI-Metric then the value is Zero. if the measurement Type is Imperial then the value is one.

Powerup. When the controller is powered up it gives one cycle input

Out Save

Master Sync Enabled : If you set it to "true" the last output will be set as output for one cycle after the controller restarts. The application can use it to return to the same state before the controller restart.
