• Execute a Flexible Control Strategy (FCS) (B000 = 1):
The process control station performs control using one of the "canned" strategies supplied
with the controller, either "as is" or as modified by the user. Which of the "FIX 1" strategies the
unit executes depends on the value assigned to a different data point (B016). (These standard
strategies are referred to as CS1, CS2, etc., in the 53MC5000 Flexible Control Strategy
manual.) Once one of these control strategies has been specified, specific database values
are loaded and modules in the instrument are linked together to implement the strategy. The
actual values assigned to the data points for each strategy are listed in the 53MC5000 manual.
Out of the box, the 53MC5000 is ready to perform one of these "FIX 1" strategies. A one-loop
unit will do CS1, single loop PID control. A two-loop unit will do CS20, a two PID control loop
strategy. A four-loop unit will do CS41, a four PID loop strategy.
• Test the display (B000 = 97):
A series of test patterns can be displayed. Displaying the test patterns does not disturb the
database, but the control program stops executing until the function index is restored.
• Default the database (B000 = 98):
It is possible to set the controller’s database back to the factory settings by "defaulting the
database". In this situation, most data points are set to values specified by MicroMod
Automation. The default database values are listed in the Instruction Manual supplied with the
controller. The only values not affected are the analog I/O calibration constants, the controller
Model Number and a few other database locations. The default always loads a CS1, Single
Loop PID, control strategy.
