Function Block Descriptions

Each of the next several pages graphically shows each of
the RME function blocks. Note that as you view each you
will find text that is black and text that appears gray. The
gray text represents inputs that are not currently available
based on the functions defined use (red text). For instance,
when the defined use of the Alarm function is set to Off,
all parameters will appear gray. Ranges specified are in
units or degrees F, if expressed in degrees C, the range will
be smaller.

Action Function

The Action Function will cause the action selected

to occur when Source Function A = ON and Active

Level = High. The active level specifies when the ac-

tion occurs. A digital value that is high causes the

action function when Active Level = High. A digital

value that is low causes the action function when Ac-

tive Level = Low. Based on a given input (Digital I/O,

Event output, Logic function, etc), the Action func-

tion can cause other functions to occur. To name a

few, starting and stopping a profile, silencing alarms,

turn control loops off and placing alarms in non-

alarm state.

Note:

Note: Action Function selection is module type and

part number dependant.
