Advanced configuration transducer block
The advanced configuration transducer block contains functions such as amplitude
threshold settings for filtering of disturbing echoes and noise, simulation of measurement
values, and strapping table for volume measurements.
Level transducer block
The level transducer block contains transmitter information including diagnostics and the
ability to configure, set to factory defaults and restarting the transmitter.
Analog Input block
Figure 5-8: Analog Input Block
A. OUT_D = Discrete output that signals a selected alarm condition
B. OUT = The block output value and status
The Analog Input (AI) function block processes field device measurements and makes
them available to other function blocks. The output value from the AI block is in
engineering units and contains a status indicating the quality of the measurement. The
measuring device may have several measurements or derived values available in different
channels. Use the channel number to define the variable that the AI block processes and
passes on to linked blocks. For further information refer to Analog-Input Block.
For more information on the different function blocks refer to Level Transducer Block,
Register Transducer Block, Advanced Configuration Transducer Block, Resource
Transducer Block, and Analog-Input Block.
