MOD 30ML Functions
CONFIGURATION EXAMPLES
2. Double click on the master process input block to access its edit display, then proceed as
follows:
a. Check the Input Type entry and if necessary change the default entry (CURRENT) to
match your process input.
b. Review the default values for the other attributes of the block and change values as
required for your process input
c. Click on the Enter button to input configured values and return to the workspace display.
3. If the Input Type was changed to Thermocouple, TC+CJC, or RTD the input function block
must be replaced. Proceed as follows:
a. Select the block and click on the delete icon to delete the block and its connections.
b. Click on the library icon to access the loop library menu, then select Input/Output. The
Input/Output function icons appear on the left side of the workspace.
c. Select the input function you require and place it in the workspace at the location where
the VCIM block was deleted.
d. Select the visible connection icon and connect the following:
R of the input function block to PVI of the master PID block and
MODOUT of the module block to MODIN of the input function block.
e. Access the block edit display and edit the attributes as required for your input.
4. Repeat Steps 2 and 3 for the Slave process input.
5. Make connections to the cascade compound as described in the next section.
Connecting Inputs and Outputs
The cascade compound is fully functional as loaded. If it is the only compound in your
strategy, the only connections required are the I/O wiring connections to the instrument
terminal block.
Connections to other blocks or compounds in your strategy can be made as required. For
example, if the slave process input is flow, the signal could be totalized by loading a totalizer
compound into your strategy and connecting the result from the slave input function block to
the process variable input of the totalizer compound.
