IM 01F06F00-01EN

Available Setting

for SHED_OPT

Actions upon Computer Failure

Normal shed,
normal return

Sets MODE_BLK.actual to Cas*, and
leaves MODE_BLK.target unchanged.

Normal shed, no
return

Sets both MODE_BLK.actual and MODE_
BLK.target
to Cas*.

Shed to Auto,
normal return

Sets MODE_BLK.actual to Auto**, and
leaves MODE_BLK.target unchanged.

Shed to Auto, no
return

Sets both MODE_BLK.actual and MODE_
BLK.target
to Auto**.

Shed to Manual,
normal return

Sets MODE_BLK.actual to Man, and
leaves MODE_BLK.target unchanged.

Shed to Manual,
no return

Sets both MODE_BLK.actual and MODE_
BLK.target
to Man.

Shed to retained
target, normal
return

If Cas is in MODE_BLK.target, sets
MODE_BLK.actual to Cas*, and leaves
MODE_BLK.target unchanged.
If Cas is not set in MODE_BLK.target, sets
MODE_BLK.actual to Auto**, and leaves
MODE_BLK.target
unchanged.

Shed to retained
target, no return

If Cas is set in MODE_BLK.target, sets
both MODE_BLK.actual and MODE_BLK.
target
to Cas*.
If Cas is not set in MODE_BLK.target, sets
MODE_BLK.actual to Auto**, and MODE_
BLK.target
to Cas.

permitted, and the priority levels of modes are
as shown below. In fact, if Normal shed, normal
return is set for SHED_OPT, detection of a
computer failure causes MODE_BLK.actual to
change to CAS, AUTO, or MAN, whichever is
set in MODE_BLK.permitted and has the lowest
priority level.

MAN

Higher priority level

AUTO
CAS
RCAS
ROUT

Lower priority level

permitted. If the block upstream of the PID
block in question is a control block, mode
transitions of the PID block to CAS occur in the
following sequence due to initialization of the
cascade connection: RCAS or ROUT

 AUTO

 CAS.

A8.18 Alarms

There are two kinds of alarms generated by a PID
block: block and process alarms.

A8.18.1 Block Alarm (BLOCK_ALM)

The block alarm BLOCK_ALM is generated upon
occurrence of either of the following errors (values
set in BLOCK_ERR) and notifi es the content of
BLOCK_ERR.

Value of

BLOCK_ERR

Condition

Input Failure

IN.status of the PID block is either of the
following:
• Bad-Device Failure
• Bad-Sensor Failure

Out of Service

MODE_BLK.target of the PID block is O/S.

A8.18.2 Process Alarms

There are six types of process alarms. Only one
process alarm can be generated at the same time,
and the process alarm having the highest priority
level from among those occurring at the same
time is generated. The priority level is set for each
process alarm type.

Setting

HI_HI_ALM Occurs when the PV increases

above the HI_HI_LIM value.

HI_HI_PRI

HI_ALM

Occurs when the PV increases
above HI_LIM value.

HI_PRI

LO_ALM

Occurs when the PV decreases
below the LO_LIM value.

LO_PRI

LO_LO_ALM Occurs when the PV decreases

below the LO_LO_LIM value.

LO_LO_LIM

DV_HI_ALM Occurs when the value of [PV -

SP] increases above the DV_HI_
LIM value.

DV_HI_PRI

DV_LO_ALM Occurs when the value of [PV

- SP] decreases below the DV_
LO_LIM value.
