The modes to which the PID block can transfer are limited
to those set in MODE_BLK.permitted, and the priority
levels of modes are as shown below. In fact, if Normal
shed, normal return is set for SHED_OPT, detection of a
computer failure causes MODE_BLK.actual to change
to Cas, Auto, or Man, whichever is set in MODE_BLK.

Lower priority level
*2:
Only when Auto is set as permitted mode.
NOTE: If a control block is connected as a cascade
primary block of the PID block in question, a mode
transition of the PID block to Cas occurs in the following
sequence due to initialization of the cascade connection:
RCas or ROut → Auto → Cas.
16.17 Alarms
There are two kinds of alarms generated by a PID
block: block and process alarms.
16.17.1 Block Alarm (BLOCK_ALM)
The block alarm BLOCK_ALM is generated upon
occurrence of either of the following errors (values
set in BLOCK_ERR) and notifies the content of
BLOCK_ERR.
Bit
Value of
BLOCK_ERR
Condition
4 Local Override MODE_BLK.actual of the PID
block is LO.
7 Input Failure
The status of PV is Bad.
(The status of IN is Bad, or the
status of IN is Uncertain and
“Use Uncertain as Good” is false
in STATUS_OPTS).
15 Out of Service
MODE_BLK.target of the PID
block is O/S.
16.17.2 Process Alarms
There are six types of process alarms. Only one
process alarm can be generated at a time, and
the process alarm having the highest priority level
from among those occurring at the same time is
generated. The priority level is set for each process
alarm type.

HI_HI_ALM
Occurs when the PV
increases above the
HI_HI_LIM value.
HI_HI_PRI
HI_ALM
Occurs when the PV
increases above HI_LIM
value.
HI_PRI
LO_ALM
Occurs when the PV
decreases below the
LO_LIM value.
LO_PRI
LO_LO_ALM Occurs when the PV
decreases below the
LO_LO_LIM value.
LO_LO_LIM
DV_HI_ALM Occurs when the value
of [PV -SP] increases
above the DV_HI_LIM
value.
DV_HI_PRI
DV_LO_ALM Occurs when the value
of [PV -SP] decreases
below the DV_LO_LIM
value.
