Logix controller fault handling Routine

[plcnovel]

Hi All
I am trying to trap some of the hardware faults in compact logix processors L35E. For example, if one of the I/O cards losses its connection with the Controller, the controller goes to fault mode, i am tryin to avoid this, by using a fault routine, which gets this error, now what i want to do basically, as soon as i get this error, i want the machine to shutdown normally instead processor goes onto fault mode. Is there a way i can do this? Like get the error, force the machine to normal shutdown and clear the fault.
thanks in advance

Uncheck the following :

And use the GSV instruction with the CLASSNAME MODULE. This gives you all kinds of info regarding a module. Look in the instruction help

Hi
Thanks for your reply, but is it risky to uncheck this option?

If you get the status of the module, via the GSV instruction, you can under program control perform an orderly shutdown
