Point Identifiers
A point can be identified in WebCTRL by its
point number and point type; in SuperVision,
a point is identified by its channel number. On
both systems, expander number zero
represents I/O points on the InterOP8500.
Point Identifiers in WebCTRL
Enter the point identifiers in Eikon for
WebCTRL before the FB is made or on the
point’s Properties page in WebCTRL. Set the
type, number, and any other required
parameters for each point on the
InterOP8500.
1. Select a physical point type from the Point
Type field.
NOTE
NOTE NOTE
NOTE To determine the physical point
type of an analog input, see Table 3 on
page 10.
2. If the physical point type is linear, enter
the appropriate minimum and maximum
present values on the microblock’s dialog
box.
For example, on a 0-5VDC sensor, enter 0
as the minimum and 5 as the maximum.
3. Enter the number of the input or output in
the Input or Output Number field.
NOTE NOTE NOTE NOTE Points are numbered starting with
1 for each point type. For example, HOA
Status output numbers would start at 1
and could go up to 16; likewise, RTD input
numbers would start at 1 and could go up
to 15.
4. Enter an expander number if needed.
Channel Numbers in SuperVision
The following table shows the valid channel
numbers for each point on the InterOP8500.
The offset and gain values used depend on
the type of sensor or actuator attached to the
I/O point. You can select the channel number,
offset, and gain using SuperVision’s Point
Help feature or Configure Points utility.
Alternatively, you can preconfigure the points
by manually entering the channel number,
offset, and gain in Eikon using the values
shown in the following tables.
