Resource Block The Resource Block contains all the data that
uniquely identify the device. It is an electronic
version of a nameplate of the device.
1 enhanced enhanced
Analog Input Block 1
Analog Input Block 2
Analog Input Block 3
The AI Block receives the measuring data from the
Sensor Block, (selectable via a channel number) and
makes the data available to other function blocks at
its output. Enhancement: digital outputs for process
alarms, fail safe mode.

Digital Input Block This block contains the discrete data of the Diagnose
Block (selectable via a channel number 0 to 16) and
provides them for other blocks at the output.
1 40 ms 30 ms standard enhanced
Digital Output Block This block converts the discrete input and thus
initiates an action (selectable via a channel number)
in the DP Flow Block or in the Service Block.
Channel 1 resets the counter for max. pressure
transgressions..
1 60 ms 40 ms standard enhanced
PID Block The PID Block serves as a proportional-integral-
derivative controller and is used almost universally
for closed-loop-control in the field including cascade
and feedforward. Input IN can be indicated on the
display. The selection is performed in the Display
Block (DISPLAY_MAIN_LINE_CONTENT).
1 120 ms 70 ms standard enhanced
Arithmetic Block This block is designed to permit simple use of popular
measurement math functions. The user does not have
to know how to write equations. The math algorithm
is selected by name, chosen by the user for the
function to be performed.
1 50 ms 40 ms standard enhanced
Input Selector Block The Input Selector Block facilitates the selection of up
to four inputs and generates an output based on the
configured action. This block normally receives its
inputs from AI Blocks. The block performs maximum,
minimum, average and ‘first good’ signal selection.
Inputs IN1 to IN4 can be indicated on the display.
The selection is performed in the Display Block
(DISPLAY_MAIN_LINE_CONTENT).
1 35 ms 35 ms standard enhanced
Signal Characterizer Block The Signal Characterizer Block has two sections,
each with an output that is a non-linear function of
the respective input. The non-linear function is
generated by a single look-up table with 21 arbitrary
x-y pairs.
1 30 ms 40 ms standard enhanced
Integrator Block The Integrator Block integrates a variable as a
function of the time or accumulates the counts from a
Pulse Input Block. The block may be used as a
totalizer that counts up until reset or as a batch
totalizer that has a setpoint, where the integrated or
accumulated value is compared to pre-trip and trip
settings, generating a binary signal when the setpoint
is reached.
1 35 ms 40 ms standard enhanced
Analog Alarm Block This block contains all process alarm conditions
(working like a comparator) and represents them at
the output.
