The inverse of this input (IF NOT Base station in
Important:
Run mode) must not be used; when the base station is not in Run
mode, Task Manager is not operating.
Example
IF Base station in Run mode THEN Disable talk through repeater
IF Base station in Run mode THEN Disable line controlled base
station
This example could be used to configure a backup base station with everything
disabled but ready to go into operation when needed.
Counter at maximum
The Counter at maximum (Countername) input becomes true when the
particular named counter reaches the maximum value set for it in Configure >
Task Manager > Counters.
The counter value changes through Task Manager actions such as Increment
counter. Counter values are read at the beginning of a processing cycle. If the
counter value changes during the processing cycle, it is immediately available;
any subsequent tasks will use the new input. When the base station enters Run
mode, all counters are reset to 0.
Example
IF Counter at maximum (LightTrigger) THEN Activate Digital
Output 2.
See "Base Station that Controls Landing Lights" on page
Flag set (flagname)
The Flag set (flagname) input becomes true when Task Manager sets the
corresponding flag. Flagname represents any name that you assigned to the flag
in Configure > Task Manager > Flags. The state of flags is read at the beginning
of a processing cycle. If a flag state changes during the processing cycle, it is
immediately available; any subsequent tasks will use the new input. When the
base station enters Run mode, each flag is cleared, unless a Task Manager task
explicitly sets it.
External channel select enabled
The override input External channel select enabled becomes true when
Task Manager sets the H/W channel select flag. This occurs on entering Run
mode and if a Task Manager task enables power saving after a previous task has
disabled it.
Example
IF NOT External channel select enabled THEN Go to channel 2
This example specifies the channel that the TB8100 will operate on if a Task
Manager action disables external channel selection. This is another way of
specifying the channel in software; you can also select a channel as the default.
