Soft_Input
A logic program can generate an analog input to a closed-loop
control channel. To do so, output a value to one of the 50 Soft Input
registers and select that register as the PV Source for the channel.
To associate a variable with a soft input:
1. Open the Add Program/Resource Variable dialog box.
2. Enter a unique variable Name.
3. Select INT from the Type list.
4. Select Output by clicking the check box.
5. Select Soft_Input from the IO Driver list.
6. Select WORD from the IO Size list.
7. In the IO Physical Address field, enter the Soft Input num-
ber (1-50).
8. Click [OK] .
Soft Input Addressing Example
To create a variable named PV_From_Logic_1 that sets the value of
the first Soft Input, set the options in the Add Program/Resource
Variable dialog box as illustrated below.
