Setpoint
A setpoint is a selected digital or analog value that is transmitted once after the value has
been set. The entered value is recalculated when necessary. A setpoint is always
transmitted as 1 word. At the receiving end, the setpoint can either the output directly to the
process as an analog signal (for example to an external controller) or the value is made
available to the local program for further processing (setpoint for internal controller, limit
value, threshold value etc.).
Setpoint and command input are interlocked for safety reasons; in other words, a setpoint
input cannot be made at the same time as a command input. In this case, the acquisition
program recognizes an error. Neither the setpoint nor the command are transmitted.
