BAD:
NC:
const
Data Type: DS-65
The primary input value of the block.
Value 0
Process Value Filter Time
PV_FTIME
16 ALL Positive 0
Data Type: Float
The time constant of the first−order PV filter. It is
the time, in seconds, required for a 63 percent
change in the IN value.
Bypass
BYPASS
17
MAN
OOS
1=Off
2=On
0=undefined
Data Type: Enum
Used to override the calculation of the block.
When enabled, the SP is sent directly to the
output.
Cascade Input
CAS_IN
18 ALL
Status
BAD
NC:
const
Data Type: DS-65
The setpoint value from another block.
Value 0
Setpoint Rate Down
SP_RATE_DN
19 ALL Positive + INF
Data Type: Float
Ramp rate for downward SP changes. When the
ramp rate is set to zero, the SP is used
immediately. PV per second
Setpoint Rate UP
SP_RATE_UP
20 ALL Positive + INF
Data Type: Float
Ramp rate for upward SP changes. When the
ramp rate is set to zero, the SP is used
immediately. PV per second
Setpoint High Limit
SP_HI_LIM
21 ALL
PV Scale +/− 10%, must be
greater than SP_LO_LIM
100
Data Type: Float
The highest SP value allowed.
Setpoint Low Limit
SP_LO_LIM
22 ALL
PV Scale
+/− 10%, must be less than
SP_HI_LIM
0
Data Type: Float
The lowest SP value allowed.
