Description
Data Type: DS‐70
Options for controlling access of host computers
and local control panels to operating, tuning, and
alarm parameters of the block.
GRANT: 1 = granted, 0= N/A
DENY: 1 = denied, 0 = N/A
Data Type: Bit String (2 byte)
0=disable
1=enable
Allows you to select the type of tracking and the
output value when a fault condition occurs.
Data Type: Bit String
0=disable
1=enable
Options the user may select for the block
processing of status.
Data Type: DS‐65
Readback is the de‐characterized valve position as
reported by the transducer block parameter
FINAL_POSITION_VALUE [17]. This correlates with
the AO block parameter OUT [9], which is the
setpoint to the transducer. READBACK is the
simulated input if SIMULATE is enabled or the
transducer block feedback if SIMULATE is disabled.
Data Type: DS‐65
The setpoint value from another function block.
Data Type: Float
Ramp rate for downward set point changes. When
the ramp rate is set to zero, the set point is used
immediately.
Data Type: Float
Ramp rate for upward set point changes. When the
ramp rate is set to zero, the setpoint is used
immediately.
Data Type: Float
The highest set point value allowed. SP_HI_LIM
must be greater than SP_LO_LIM.
Data Type: Float
The lowest set point value allowed. SP_LO_LIM
must be less than SP_HI_LIM.
Data Type: Unsigned16
Defines which transducer parameter receives the
AO output. Select Setpoint to control valve
position.
Data Type: Float
Time from failure detection to reaction if failure still
exists.
