Output Points - Process Data
DESCRIPTION - POINT DESCRIPTION
This process variable is the name by which the output point is known to the user. This variable is entered when
configuring the output point, but cannot be modified via Operate
OUTPUT - OUTPUT POINT COMMAND
This process variable is the value of the last command issued via this output point. This variable is usually linked
to automatic tank gauging systems, PLC's or DCS systems, and is used to send operator commands to field
devices (i.e. Open / Close, Start / Stop)
PROCESS VALUE - PROCESS VARIABLE OR SETPOINT
This process variable is the current value of the output point. This variable is usually linked to automatic tank
gauging systems, PLC's or DCS systems, but can also be manually entered by the operator
ALARM STATUS - COMPOSITE ALARM STATUS
This variable is a composite value that displays a coded variable representing the highest priority alarm for the
output point. Possible values depend on the format of the alarm definition associated with the output point.
FuelsManager calculates this alarm based on the current process value and the alarm definition configured for
the output point. This variable can be viewed from the Operate interface but cannot be modified
UNITS - ENGINEERING UNITS
This variable is the engineering units of the output point's process variable. This variable is entered when
configuring the output point, but cannot be modified via Operate
TIME - TIME OF LAST VALUE UPDATE
This process variable is the last time that the output point's process value was updated. This variable can be
viewed from the Operate interface but cannot be modified
TICKS - MILLISECONDS OF LAST UPDATE
This process variable is the number of milliseconds that have elapsed since output point's process value was
updated. This variable can be viewed from the Operate interface but cannot be modified
MAXIMUM - MAXIMUM SCALING VALUE
This variable is the maximum range for the output point's process value. This variable is entered when
configuring the output point, but cannot be modified via Operate
MINIMUM - MINIMUM SCALING VALUE
This variable is the minimum range for the output point's process value. This variable is entered when
