Definition
Valid Values
Ch[x].LLimitUnlatch
BOOL
Unlatches a latched Low Limit alarm at the first instance
of the bit transitioning from 0 to 1.
For example, if the controller sends data for this tag in
successive instances as 0, 1, 1, 1, 1, the module unlatches
the Low Limit alarm when it receives the first 1.
The following instances of this tag value being 1 do not
impact the Low Limit alarm unlatching.
•
0 = Alarm remains latched
(default)
•
1 = Alarm is unlatched
Ch[x].HLimitUnlatch
BOOL
Unlatches a latched High Limit alarm at the first instance
of the bit transitioning from 0 to 1.
For example, if the controller sends data for this tag in
successive instances as 0, 1, 1, 1, 1, the module unlatches
the High Limit alarm when it receives the first 1.
The following instances of this tag value being 1 do not
impact the High Limit alarm unlatching.
•
0 = Alarm remains latched
(default)
•
1 = Alarm is unlatched
Ch[x].RampAlarmUnlatch
BOOL
Unlatches a latched Ramp alarm at the first instance of
the bit transitioning from 0 to 1.
For example, if the controller sends data for this tag in
successive instances as 0, 1, 1, 1, 1, the module unlatches
the Ramp alarm when it receives the first 1.
The following instances of this tag value being 1 do not
impact the Ramp alarm unlatching.
•
0 = Alarm remains latched
(default)
•
1 = Alarm is unlatched
Ch[x].Calibrate
BOOL
Initiates the Calibration process.
This tag must remain set until a valid Low Reference and
High Reference values are sent to the channel.
•
0 = Calibration process is
not started (default)
•
1 = Calibration process is started
Ch[x].CalOutputLowRef
BOOL
When set, the channel produces the Low Calibration
Reference Point for the current
C.Ch[x].OutputRange
tag
value.
•
0 = Do not output Cal Low
Reference
•
1 = Output Calibration Low
Reference
Do not set this tag and the
CalOutputHighRef tag to 1
simultaneously.
