STSW Setpoint Scheduler State Switch Function Block 
Description 
The STSW label stands for the Setpoint Scheduler State Switch.  
 
 
 
This block is part of the 
Setpoint Scheduler category.  
Function 
Connects to Master block (SPS) via dedicated connection and accepts digital inputs to cause scheduler 
mode changes. The State Switch block accepts state request digital inputs and produces an encoded output 
for input to the master (SPS) block.  
Inputs 
^JOG
  =  OFF to ON requests JOG state 
GHOLD =  ON = guaranteed Hold State; ON to OFF and previous state was RUN, then return to RUN 
mode. 
^RESET =  OFF to ON requests RESET state  
^RUN  =  OFF to ON requests RUN state 
^ADV  =  OFF to ON requests ADVANCE state 
Outputs 
STRQ 
= for connection to the STQR input of the SPS function block. This block encodes discrete inputs to 
a form that will convey change mode requests to the SPS block: 
 0.0 No Change 
 1.0 Jog State 
 2.0 Guaranteed Hold State 
 4.0 Reset State 
 8.0 Hold State 
 16.0 Run State
