Function Blocks
The function blocks are used to simulate some of the devices used in
conventional open-loop and closed-loop control systems. Pico GFX-70
provides the following function blocks:
• Analog value comparator/threshold controller (only with Pico GFX-70
24V dc variants)
• Arithmetic
–
addition, subtraction, multiplication, division
• Compare data blocks
• Transfer data blocks
• Boolean sequences
• Counters
–
up and down counters with upper and lower threshold values, preset
–
frequency counters
–
high-speed counters
–
incremental encoder counters
• Comparators
• Text, output freely editable texts, enter values
• Data function block
• PID controllers
• Smoothing filters
• Value scaling
• Pulse width modulator
• Read (GET) Pico-Link data
• Time switches
–
weekday/time
–
year, month, day (date)
• Numerical converters
• Master reset
• Operating hours counter
• Write (PUT) Pico-Link data
• Synchronization of date and time via the Pico-Link
• Timing relays
