A2.2 Setting and Change of
Basic Parameters
This section describes the procedure taken to 
set and change the parameters for each block. 
Obtaining access to each parameter differs 
depending on the confi guration system used. For 
details, refer to the instruction manual for each 
confi guration system.
Access the parameter to be set or changed.
Make setting or change in accordance with 
each parameter.
Set the Target of block mode (MODE_BLK) 
back to Auto 
(Note 2)
.
Access the block mode (MODE_BLK) of each 
block.
FA0201.ai
Set the Target
(Note 1)
of block mode
(MODE_BLK) to Auto, Man or O/S
(Note 2)
according to the Write Mode
(Note 3)
of the
parameter to be set or changed.
IMPORTANT
Do not turn the power OFF immediately after 
parameter setting. When the parameters 
are saved to the EEPROM, the redundant 
processing is executed for the improvement of 
reliability. If the power is turned OFF within 60 
seconds after setting of parameters, changed 
parameters are not saved and may return to their 
original values.
Note 1: Block mode consists of the following four modes that are
controlled by the universal parameter that displays the 
running condition of each block.
Target: Sets the operating condition of the block.
Actual: Indicates the current operating condition.
Permit: Indicates the operating condition that the block 
is allowed to take.
Normal: Indicates the operating condition that the block
will usually take.
Note 2: The followings are the operating conditions which the
individual blocks will take.

Write Mode for each block.
A2.3 Setting the AI Function
Blocks
Each digtalYEWFLO contains three AI function 
blocks (AI1, AI2 and AI3) having independent 
parameters. Set up the parameters of each AI block 
you use, individually as necessary. 
The AI1 block performs the fl ow rate output 
calculation (standard).

Access the XD_SCALE parameter.
Set the required unit in Unit Index of 
XD_SCALE. 
Set the upper range limit in EU at 100% of 
XD_SCALE. 
Set the lower range limit in EU at 0% of 
XD_SCALE. 
Set the decimal point position in Decimal Point 
of XD_SCALE.
