3.6 Discrete Output (DO) Function Block
The Discrete Output (DO) block accepts a “command” value from the network user. This command
value flows through the DO block algorithm. The DO block then provides this “command” data to the
transducer block, and the actuator takes some action based on this “command.” The function block
also provides readback data allowing the network user to configure closed-loop control processes.
The DO block supports mode control and simulation.
There are two DO blocks in the MX/QX actuator device. Each DO function block can be assigned to
one of the following channels:
Channel
Channel Name
Description
354
DO_POSITION_CHAN
Command Stop/Open/Close
355
DO_ESD_CHAN
Command Emergency Shutdown
356
DO_RELAY_CHAN
Command Energize Relays
NOTE: Please note that the quality status bit must be set to “good”, prior to or while sending
command data. This is required in order for the actuator to respond to DO block commands. See
“Status Bit Definitions” section on page 70 for coding of quality status bits.
