7.12.2 Modes
The ISEL function block supports three modes of operation as defined by the MODE_BLK
parameter:
• Manual (Man): The block output (OUT) may be set manually.
• Automatic (Auto): OUT reflects the analog input measurement or the simulated value
when simulation is enabled.
• Out of service (O/S): The block is not processed. The BLOCK_ERR parameter shows Out
of Service. In this mode, you can make changes to all configurable parameters. The
target mode of a block may be restricted to one or more of the supported modes.
