Modes
The Analog Output function block supports the following modes:
Manual (Man)—You can manually set the output to the I/O channel through the OUT [9] attribute. This mode is used
primarily for maintenance, calibration and diagnostics.
Automatic (Auto)—The block output (OUT [9]) reflects the target operating point specified by the setpoint (SP [8])
attribute. Typically the setpoint is set by the user.
Cascade (Cas)—The SP [8] attribute is set by another function block through a connection to CAS_IN [17]. The SP [8]
value is used to set the OUT [9] attribute automatically. This is the most frequently used mode in the digital valve
controller.
Note
The transducer block must be in Auto for the mode to go to AUTO, CAS, MAN, or RCAS.
RemoteCascade (RCas)—The SP [8] is set by a host computer by writing to the RCAS_IN [28] parameter. The SP [8]
value is used to set the OUT [9] attribute automatically.
