If an output is in the ON state, any surge onÃÂ the output wiring can cause the output to be damaged. This is why if an output is connected to a relay, the relay should be near to the output and not connected by a cable running a long distance
Both relays (on Main panel and SEM) were next the boards and not actual outputs. There was only one relay per board, and in the case of the main panel, all outputs were damaged.

eg
get Counter 1
Set Output 00
If counter 1 value is 5, then the next action sets output 5
I was referring the Output List (Comfort -> Names ->Outputs). Will try manually remove this from the project and see if it is just a carried over setting.

The Output list should not show output 00

I have just had a burn out on the 0P01 I smelt an electrical burning smell and then found none of my Outputs worked on 1-8. i touched the board and found it was roasting hot. I swopped the boards with the one in the SEM 1-8 outputs worked again. the only thing that had been added was an infrared IR01W (school boy error cables placed wrong way round which I think it was caused module to fry. put module in sem and it just cooked have had to remove module and will have to get a replacement (lesson learn t)

That is why we made the Op1 pluggable as the outputs can be damaged ifconnected wrongly.
Hence you do not need to replace the whole SEM or comfort

Hi,
I am wiring my comfort and I am wondering what is the maximum safe distance where I can run the output cables to switch relays without damaging the output transistors due to possible surges.
- ident - 04-15-2014
It is best to put the relays next to the Comfort PCB or in the same cupboard where Comfort is mounted. The relay contact wires can be run a long way

I recently tried to use Output 01 connected via TWS02, however the output failed to send signal to operate the relay. tried different methods of programing but to no avail, I also changed the OP1 board but this made no difference either. when the relay was connected to any other output it worked fine. I suspect that the actual Output is faulty 2 - 8 all work normally. is there anyway of resetting the output 1 specifically. (Its not used but would prefer it was working)

Usually it is the OP1 output which can be dameged more easily
Can you use IO Monitor and enter O!0101 to turn on the output, see if that works
The reply should be
OP0101 output 1 on
- Swiss-Toni - 03-23-2015
The response you get with that command is \"OK\"
from the execute response you get
DA800101FF
RA0000
Also status says \"OFF\"

Could you open your programming file and go to \"Functions\"--> \"Thermostats\". If you are not using thermostats. please ensure that all \"Sensor\" are \"Unassigned\"(see attachment).
