    DVC6200f Digital Valve Controller Instruction Manual DI Function Block D103412X012 February 2017 Discrete Input Function Block Overview The Discrete Input (DI) function block (figure E‐27) processes a single discrete input from a field device and makes it available to other function blocks. You can configure inversion and alarm detection on the input value. In the DVC6200f digital valve controller, the discrete input function block can provide limit switch functionality and valve position proximity detection.
  • Page 316 DVC6200f Digital Valve Controller Instruction Manual DI Function Block D103412X012 February 2017 Modes The Discrete Input function block supports the following modes: D Manual (Man)—The block output (OUT_D [8]) is disconnected from the field and set manually. D Automatic (Auto)—The block algorithm determines output. D Out of Service (OOS)—The block is not processed.

You can enter any value between 0 and 255. A value of 255 disables the alarm. When OUT_D [8] matches the DISC_LIM [23] state, the discrete value of an alarm is set.
