Resource Block
ADVISE_MASK 91 Mask of Advisory Alarm. Corresponds bit for bit to the ADVISE_ACTIVE. A bit
on means that the failure is masked out from alarming.
This parameter is the Read Only copy of FD_MAINT_MASK &
FD_CHECK_MASK.
ADVISE_PRI 89 Designates the alarming priority of the ADVISE_ALM.
ALARM_SUM 37 This parameter shows the current alert status, unacknowledged states,
unreported states, and disabled states of the alarms associated with the
function block. The two resource block alarms are write alarm and block
alarm.
ALERT_KEY 04 ALERT_KEY shows the identification number of the plant unit. This
information may be used in the host for sorting alarms, etc.
BLOCK_ALM 36 The block alarm is used for all configuration, hardware, connection failure, or
system problems in the block. The cause of the alert is entered in the subcode
field. The first alert to become active will set the active status in the status
parameter. As soon as the unreported status is cleared by the alert reporting
task, another block alert may be reported without clearing the active status, if
the subcode has changed.
BLOCK_ERR 06 This parameter reflects the error status of the hardware or software
components associated with a block. It is a bit string, so multiple errors may
be shown.
CLR_FSTATE 30 Writing a Clear to this parameter will clear the device FAULT_STATE if the field
condition has cleared.
COMPATIBILITY_REV 67 This parameter is optionally used when replacing field devices. The correct
usage of this parameter presumes the COMPATIBILITY_REV value of the
replacing device should be equal or lower than the DEV_REV value of the
replaced device.
CONFIRM_TIME 33 This parameter represents the minimum time between retries of alert
reports.
CYCLE_SEL 20 This parameter is used to select the block execution method for this resource.
The flowmeter supports the following executions:
Scheduled: Blocks are only executed based on the schedule in FB_START_LIST.
Block Execution: A block may be executed by linking to another block’s
completion.
CYCLE_TYPE 19 This parameter identifies the block execution methods available for this
resource.
DD_RESOURCE 09 This string identifies the tag of the resource that contains the device
description for this resource.
DD_REV 13 DD_REV is a revision of the DD associated with the resource—used by an
interface device to locate the DD file for the resource.
DEV_OPTIONS 72 Indicates which miscellaneous and diagnostic device licensing options are
enabled. It also indicates Transducer options.
DEV_REV 12 DEV_REV specifies the manufacturer revision number associated with the
resource—used by an interface device to locate the DD file for the resource.
DEV_STRING 71 This is used to load new licensing into the device. The value can be written but
will always read back with a value of 0.
DEV_TYPE 11 DEV_TYPE specifies the manufacturer’s number associated with the
resource—used by interface devices to locate the DD file for the resource.
DOWNLOAD_MODE 75 Gives access to the boot block code for over the wire downloads.
