7-2 Analog Output Functional Block
The Analog Output Functional Block
The Analog Output functional block translates an input network variable value
to a value that is used to drive a hardware output. The functional block may be
configured to translate the value into voltage or current, depending on the
requirements of the hardware output being driven. The following figure and
tables summarize the inputs and outputs of the Analog Output functional block:
Input Network Variables
Default name Default type Description
Analog SNVT_lev_cont_f The Analog input network variable
that drives the actuator.
Mode SNVT_hvac_mode
(changeable)
The Mode input network variable.
See the Presets tab for more
information.
Enable SNVT_switch The Enable input network variable.
If this network variable is set to
On, the functional block will
function normally. If this network
variable is set to Off, the output to
the actuator driven by this
functional block will return to its
default state.
Output Network Variables
Default name Default type Description
Feedback SNVT_lev_cont_f The sensed output of the actuator
driven by this functional block.
Configuring an Analog Output
Right-clicking on an Analog Output functional block and select Configure from
the shortcut menu to open the LonPoint Plug-in. The Analog Output window of
the LonPoint Plug-in opens. This window contains the following tabs: Analog
Output
, Defaults, Presets, Heartbeats, and Status.
