The output image table file is that part of the program memory allocated to storing the actual on/off status of connected discrete outputs. Figure 5-6 shows a typical connection of two pilot lights to the output image table file through the output module. Its operation can be summarized as follows. • The status of each light (ON/OFF) is controlled by the user program and is indicated by the presence of 1 (ON) and 0 (OFF). • Each connected output has a bit in the output image table file that corresponds exactly to the terminal to which the output is connected. 1 0 Word corresponding to input module Input image Input module OFF (open) ON (closed) L1 Data table files Figure 5-5  Connection of an open and closed switch to the input image table file through the input module.
