   Parameter	Value/Range	Description
   Source	Digital/Boolean	Link this input to the value that drives the state of the digital output. If Source is not linked, the digital output state is driven by the Force ON, Force OFF values.
   Force ON	Pulse	Link this input to a pulse that forces the digital output on for the PulseWidth duration, regardless of the Source input.
   Force OFF*	Pulse	Link this input to a pulse that forces the digital output off.
   Normal*	Pulse	Pulsing this input will switch the driver of the digital output from Force ON to Source.
   EventLog Mode	Log Off/Log On	Specifies if events generate log entries.
   Polarity	Inverting/non-inverting	Specifies if the signal to the digital port is inverted or not inverted.
   PulseWidth	0–2,000,000	Specifies the duration of the pulse, in seconds. Setting this parameter to 0 sets the digital output continuously on.
   Port	-	The physical digital output port connection. Only available ports are shown.

   * These parameters are only valid when pulse width is set to 0.
