NI-FBUS Configurator User Manual

CYCLE_SEL (Tuning)

Identifies the block execution methods available. Unused in National
Instruments FP-3000.

CYCLE_TYPE (Tuning)

Used to select the block execution method. Unused in National
Instruments FP-3000.

DD_RESOURCE (Diagnostic)

Unused in FieldPoint.

SP Track Retained Target

Causes the setpoint to track the input value of the retained
target of the block. The retained target of the block is the
lowest priority mode set in the target mode field of the

MODE_BLK

parameter of the block. For example, if the

RCas

bit is set in the target mode, the setpoint tracks

RCAS_IN

.

Direct Acting

Defines the relationship between changes to the

PV

and

changes to the output. For example, consider a case with a
fixed

SP

while the process variable varies. When

Direct

Acting

is set, an increase in the process variable causes the

control block output value to be increased. When

Direct

Acting

is clear, an increase in the process variable causes the

control block output value to be decreased.

Track Enable

Enables external tracking. If

Track Enable

is true, and

TRK_IN_D

is true,

TRK_VAL

overwrites the value at the output

of the block except when

Man

is the target mode.

Track in Manual

Enables tracking in Manual mode.

Use PV for BKCAL_OUT

When set, uses the process variable as the value for

BKCAL_OUT

, instead of the setpoint.

Obey SP Limits if Cas or

RCas

When set, confines the setpoint to values within

SP_HI_LIM

and

SP_LO_LIM

, even when the setpoint comes from another

function block.

No OUT Limits in Man

Unused in FieldPoint.
