Enabling Automatic
Operation
Each Control Group CtrlGrp provides two outputs, an EnAutoStart (enable
automatic start) and an EnAuto (enable automatic operation) signal, that are
used for motor control and that may be switched by Machine Group Modules
MaGrp. The bits are used in the application, to interlock the automatic
operation of modules, such as Motors/Valves etc., that use the signals as
inputs. A module will start only if both EnAutoStart AND EnAuto are ON
and it will stop if the EnAuto is OFF. A restart is only possible if the
EnAutoStart (OR the EnAuto) was set OFF for a cycle.
Note: In a chain of Devices the EnAuto Input is normally used as a process
