Description
number
The actual, target, permitted, and normal
modes of the block.
Target: The mode to "go to"
05
Actual: The mode the "block is currently in"
Permitted: Allowed modes that target may
take on
Normal: Most common mode for target
33
Indicates the type of sensor module.
The measured value and status available to
14
the function block.
The high and low range limit values, the
engineering unit code, and the number of
digits to the right of the decimal point to be
used to display the final value.
Valid engineering units are the following:
15
1000 = deg K
1001 = deg C
1002 = deg F
1003 = deg R
1243 = millivolt
1281 = ohm
Type of measurement represented by the
13
primary value.
104 = Process Temperature
Indicates the number of remote seals that
37
are attached to the device. See Remote Seal
Number Codes.
Indicates the type of remote seals that are
38
attached to the device. See Remote Seal
Type Codes.
30
The secondary value, related to the sensor.
Engineering units to be used with
SECONDARY_VALUE.
29
1001 °C
1002 °F
The last date on which the calibration was
performed.This is intended to reflect the
25
calibration of that part of the sensor that is
usually wetted by the process.
The last location of the sensor calibration.
24
This describes the physical location at which
the calibration was performed.
23
The method of last sensor calibration.
34
The type of last sensor calibration.
The name of the person responsible for the
26
last sensor calibration.
