Units Description
None The actual, target, permitted, and normal modes of the block.
Target: The mode to "go to"
Actual: The mode the "block is currently in"
Permitted: Allowed modes that target may take on
Normal: Most common mode for target
EU of OUT_SCALE The block output value and status.
None Discrete output to indicate a selected alarm condition.
None The high and low scale values, engineering units code, and number of digits to the
right of the decimal point associated with OUT.
EU of XD_SCALE The process variable used in block execution.
Seconds The time constant of the first-order PV filter. It is the time required for a 63% change
in the IN value.
None A group of data that contains the current transducer value and status, the simulated
transducer value and status, and the enable/disable bit.
None The strategy field can be used to identify grouping of blocks. This data is not
checked or processed by the block.
None 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.
None The user description of the intended application of the block.
None This alert is generated by any change to the static data.
% of OUT Range The average absolute error between the PV and its previous mean value over that
evaluation time defined by VAR_SCAN.
Seconds The time over which the VAR_INDEX is evaluated.
None The high and low scale values, engineering units code, and number of digits to the
right of the decimal point associated with the channel input value.
To support testing, you can either change the mode of the block to manual
and adjust the output value, or you can enable simulation through the
configuration tool and manually enter a value for the measurement value and
its status. In both cases, you must first set the ENABLE jumper on the field
device.
NOTE
All fieldbus instruments have a simulation jumper. As a safety measure, the
jumper has to be reset every time there is a power interruption. This measure
is to prevent devices that went through simulation in the staging process from
being installed with simulation enabled.
With simulation enabled, the actual measurement value has no impact on the
OUT value or the status.
