The Active Setpoint is the setpoint used as the current target Setpoint Value. Some
controllers can have more than one setpoint (e.g. Setpoint 1 and 2 or Local and Remote
Setpoints), but only one of these is active at any time.
Also refer to Actual Setpoint, Remote Setpoint, Setpoint, Setpoint Select and Setpoint Select
Enable.
Actual Setpoint Type: Controller Definition
Actual Setpoint is the current value of the setpoint. This may be different to the Active
Setpoint’s target value if the setpoint is currently ramping. The actual setpoint will rise or fall
at the ramp-rate set, until it reaches the target setpoint value.
Also refer to Active Setpoint, Setpoint, Setpoint Ramp Enable and Setpoint Select.
