SPSA Setpoint Scheduler Auxiliary Setpoint Function Block 
Description 
The SPSA label stands for Setpoint Scheduler Auxiliary Setpoint Block. 
 
 
 
This block is part of the 
Setpoint Scheduler category. 
Function 
The eight setpoint outputs of the Auxiliary Setpoint block are set to the current step value. The current step 
is an input to the block and must be connected to the step output of a Master Scheduler block. At the end of 
a step, the outputs of the slave block go directly to the next step value. That is, Ramps are not supported.
