Ramp function with end value (as of system version 03)
This function allows to select another setpoint as ramp end value. The option "Program gener-
ator with process steps" is required for this function. Both setpoints must be enabled in the pro-
cess step.
Example: In the program generator configuration, setpoint 3 has been selected as end value
for the ramp of setpoint 1. Now, in the program schema, setpoint 3 is used in the second section
as end value for the ramp of setpoint 1.
Program schema:
Simulation:
The value at the beginning of the second section is determined by setpoint 1 (20), the value at
the end of the section by setpoint 3 (25). At the end of the section, setpoint 1 jumps to the value
of the next section (30).
In sections without end value, the setpoint curve depends on the program generator configu-
ration ("setpoint ramp" in this example).
