4. Use the XD_SCALE parameter to select the desired unit and the block input range for the
process variable. See also Page 42, Section 6.7 "Scaling the OUT parameter".
Make sure that the unit selected suits the process variable selected. If the process variable
does not suit the unit, the BLOCK_ERROR parameter reports "Block Configuration Error"
and the block mode cannot be set to "Auto".
5. Use the L_TYPE parameter to select the type of linearization for the input variable (factory
setting: Direct).
Make sure that the settings for the XD_SCALE and OUT_SCALE parameters are the same
for the "Direct" linearization type. If the process values and units do not match, the
BLOCK_ERROR parameter reports "Block Configuration Error" and the block mode cannot
be set to "Auto".
6. Enter the alarm and critical alarm messages by means of the HI_HI_LIM, HI_LIM,
LO_LO_LIM and LO_LO_LIM parameters. The limit values entered have to be within the
value range specified for the OUT_SCALE parameter.
7. Specify the alarm priorities by means of the HI_HI_PRI, HI_PRI, LO_LO_PRI and LO_PRI
parameters. Reporting to the field host system only takes place with alarms with a priority
greater than 2.
8. Set the block mode to Auto using the MODE_BLK parameter, TARGET element. For this
purpose, the Resource Block must also be set to the "Auto" block mode.
Additional configuration
1. Depending on the control or automation task, configure additional function blocks and
output blocks. See also Operating Instructions BA00303P "Description of Device
Functions Cerabar S/Deltabar S/Deltapilot S".
2. Link the function blocks and output blocks.
3. After specifying the active LAS, download all the data and parameters to the field device.
