RampValue REAL array Ramp Value array. Enter a ramp value for
each segment (0 to NumberOfSegs-1). Ramp
values are entered as time in minutes or as a
rate in units/minute. The TimeRate
parameter reflects which method is used to
specify the ramp. If a ramp value is invalid,
the instruction sets the appropriate bit in
Status and changes to Operator Manual or
Program Hold mode. The array must be at
least as large as NumberOfSegs.
Valid = 0.0 to maximum positive float
SoakValue REAL array Soak Value array. Enter a soak value for each
segment (0 to NumberOfSegs-1). The array
must be at least as large as NumberOfSegs.
Valid = any float
SoakTime REAL array Soak Time array. Enter a soak time for each
segment (0 to NumberOfSegs-1). Soak times
are entered in minutes. If a soak value is
invalid, the instruction sets the appropriate
