Features:
- Sixteen current-sourcing output points for DC field loads
- Direct output-image mapping with individual yellow status indicators
- Terminal-base supply path shared across the output group
1794-OB16 is the non-protected sourcing catalog in this FLEX I/O output role, separating it from variants that add electronic channel protection.
The quickest selection check is therefore not point count alone, but whether the project expects a simple command image and external field protection.
Base distribution, simultaneous-load behavior, and controller mapping remain separate acceptance decisions for the completed output group.
Apter Power can coordinate official-document review, quotation, and sourcing support for 1794-OB16.

Important Notice: Other accessories, manuals, cables, calibration data, software, etc. are not included with this equipment unless listed in the above stock item description. All prices are shown in USD.
- Listed bases: The module uses the documented TB2, TB3, or TB3S family arrangements and their keyed variants.
- Supply routing: Output common and positive DC power follow the assigned B-row and C-row distribution paths.
- Feed capacity: Daisy-chained base current is limited, so a heavily loaded group may need a separate power connection.
- Channel boundary: Each output must remain within its individual current rating during normal operation.
- Group boundary: The simultaneous load schedule must also remain within the aggregate module rating.
- Starting demand: Solenoid or lamp inrush must be checked against the documented repeatable surge profile.
- Write image: One controller bit corresponds to each of outputs 0 through 15.
- Field indication: Sixteen yellow indicators show the commanded field-side output states.
- Fault expectation: Logic must not invent electronic channel-fault bits that belong to protected catalogs.
- Discrete DC actuation: Switch sourcing field loads from a distributed FLEX I/O station.
- Machine sequencing: Control approved solenoids, indicators, and similar loads within the documented current envelope.
- Remote output groups: Place controller-commanded DC outputs near the machine when terminal-base power is engineered locally.
