Mode Shedding on Computer Failure
Mode shedding occurs in accordance with the SHED_OPT setting when:
❑ (1) the data status of RCAS_IN, which is the setting received from a computer as
the setpoint SP, falls to Bad while the PID block is running in the RCas (remote
cascade) mode,
or
❑ (2) the data status of ROUT_IN, which is the setting received from a computer as
the remote output signal, falls to Bad while the PID block is running in the ROut
(remote output) mode

Actions upon Computer Failure
Normal shed, normal return Sets MODE_BLK.actual to Cas(*1), and leaves MODE_BLK.target unchanged.
Normal shed, no return Sets both MODE_BLK.actual and MODE_BLK.target to Cas(*1).
Shed to Auto, normal return Sets MODE_BLK.actual to Auto(*2), and leaves MODE_BLK.target unchanged.
Shed to Auto, no return Sets both MODE_BLK.actual and MODE_BLK.target to Auto(*2).
Shed to Manual, normal return Sets MODE_BLK.actual to Man, and leaves MODE_BLK.target unchanged.
Shed to Manual, no return Sets both MODE_BLK.actual and MODE_BLK.target to Man.
Shed to retained target,
normal return
If Cas is set in MODE_BLK.target, - sets MODE_BLK.actual to Cas(*1)
and
❑ leaves MODE_BLK.target unchanged.
If Cas is not set in MODE_BLK.target,
❑ sets MODE_BLK.actual to Auto(*2)
and
❑ leaves MODE_BLK.target unchanged.
Shed to retained target, no
return
If Cas is set in MODE_BLK.target, sets:
❑ MODE_BLK.actual to Cas, and
❑ MODE_BLK.target to Cas(*1), too.
If Cas is not set in MODE_BLK.target, sets:
❑ MODE_BLK.actual to Auto(*2), and
❑ MODE_BLK.target to Cas.
