RESIDENT CONFIGURATION
The CD600 Plus leaves the factory with a resident configuration that performs a Four Loop Control.
This configuration handles most of the applications normally used in process control.
Smar provides to the user a project file with the graphical representation of the resident
configuration. The file is named SMAR-4LP.cdp and it is located at the CONF600 Plus installation
directory (“C:\Program Files\Smar\Conf600 Plus\Work\”).
The main features of the resident configuration are:
• Execution of four independent control loops.
• Each loop is implemented with an Advanced PID function block.
• Each loop may have Local Adjustment Set Point or Remote Set Point for ratio control. The ratio
constant can be adjusted at the front panel of the CD600 Plus.
• Loops 1 and 2 have a lead-lag dynamic compensator for feed-forward control.
• Each loop has two alarms for the Process Variable (any type, any level) and one deviation alarm
with time-out.
• Each loop has forced manual input.
The following figure shows the graphical representation for the loops of the resident configuration.
