7. In-Process Operation

This chapter describes the procedure performed

when changing the operation of the function block

of the transmitter in process.

7.1 Mode Transition

When the function block mode is changed to

Out_Of_Service, the function block pauses and a

block alarm is issued.
When the function block mode is changed to

Manual, the function block suspends updating of

output values. In this case alone, it is possible to

write a value to the OUT parameter of the block

for output. Note that no parameter status can be

changed.

7.2 Generation of Alarm

7.2.1 Indication of Alarm

When the self-diagnostics function indicates that a

device is faulty, an alarm (device alarm) is issued

from the resource block. When an error (block

error) is detected in each function block or an error

in the process value (process alarm) is detected, an

alarm is issued from each block. If an LCD indicator

is installed, the error number is displayed as AL.XX.

If two or more alarms are issued, multiple error

numbers are displayed.

For details of ALARM, refer to Section 8.2.
