AI Function Block
Description
Data Type: Unsigned16
The revision level of the static data associated with
the function block. The revision value will be
incremented each time a static parameter value in
the block is changed
Data Type: Octet String
The user description of the intended application of
the block.
Data Type: Unsigned16
The strategy field can be used to identify grouping
of blocks. This data is not checked or processed by
the block.
Data Type: Unsigned8
The identification number of the plant unit. This
information may be used in the host for sorting
alarms, etc.
Data Type: DS‐69
Valid Bits: 7: OOS, 4: MAN, 3: AUTO
The actual, target, permitted, and normal modes of
the block.
Target: The requested block mode
Actual: The current mode of the block
Permitted: Allowed modes for Target
Normal: Most common mode for Target
Data Type: Bit String

Inactive

Active

Error status associated with the hardware or
software for the AI block.
Data Type: DS‐65
Reflects the scaled value from the configured
channel. Units set by OUT_SCALE and L_TYPE.
Data Type: DS‐68
The block output value and status.
Data Type: DS‐82
A group of data that contains the current transducer
value and status, the simulated transducer value
and status, and the enable/disable bit.
Data Type: DS‐68
Transducer scaling (XD_SCALE) is applied to the
value from the channel to produce the FIELD_VAL in
percent. The XD_SCALE units code must match the
channel units code (if one exists), or the block will
remain in OOS mode after being configured.
