DIG IN2 
DIG 1 COMB or 
DIG 2 COMB 
Action  Example 
NONE Any Selection 
No action will occur when 
the digital input is active. 
 
ENABLED DISABLED 
The DIG IN condition will 
occur when the Digital Input 
is active. 
DIG IN1 = TO MAN 
DIG1 COM = DISABLE 
Loop 1 will switch to MANUAL when 
digital input 1 is active. 
ACTION 
DISABLED 
ENABLED 
No action will occur when 
the digital input is active. 
DIG IN1 = ToPID2  
DIG1 COM = +ToSP2  
PID SETS = 1 ONLY 
LSP’S = TWO 
As PID SETS is set to 1 ONLY, the 
DIG IN1 configuration cannot be 
accomplished and is thus Action 
Disabled. Therefore, when digital 
input 1 is active, no action will occur 
even though DIG1 COM is enabled. 
ENABLED ACTION 
DISABLED 
Action is indeterminate 
when the digital input is 
active because of 
configuration errors. 
DIG IN1 = ToPID2  
DIG1 COM = +ToSP2 
PID SETS = 2KEYBD  
LSP’S =1 ONLY 
As there is only one LSP configured, 
the DIG1 COM configuration cannot 
be accomplished and is thus Action 
Disabled. Therefore, the action will be 
indeterminate when DIG IN1 is active. 
ENABLED ENABLED 
Both DIG IN and DIG COM 
action will occur. 
DIG IN1 = ToPID2 
DIG1 COM = +ToSP2  
PID SETS = 2KEYBD 
LSP’S =TWO 
Instrument is correctly configured for 
both actions and thus will perform as 
desired when DIG IN1 is active.
