to enable the Zone GFB option in Eikon when 
making the GFB. 

A sample U-Line GFB is available at 
Automated Logic Corporation’s web site 
(http://www.automatedlogic.com). Use this 
sample as a guideline for creating your own 
GFBs. A default algorithm can be loaded into 
the U-card to provide stand-alone control 
functions if communications between the U-
card and the UNI are disrupted. Refer to the 
appropriate UNI module driver technical 
instruction for instructions on setting up this 
default algorithm. The U551’s Graphic 
Function Block is stored in the UNI module, 
which must use one of the following module 
drivers:

• For WebCTRL systems, the DRV_UNI16 

or DRV_UNI32 module driver.

• For SuperVision systems, the U1M, 

U3M, UNM, or U5M module driver. 

When using a LogiStat sensor with the U551, 
include a LogiStat microblock and a Zone 
Control microblock in the module’s GFB. The 
LogiStat microblock supports the LogiStat, 
LogiStat Plus, and LogiStat Pro sensors. 

If you are using WebCTRL, you do not need to 
enter point identifiers for this microblock in 
Eikon for WebCTRL or WebCTRL. If you are 
using SuperVision, you do not need to enter 
channel numbers for this microblock in Eikon 
or SuperVision. For more information, refer to 
the 

Eikon for WebCTRL Microblock Reference 

Guide

 or the 

Eikon Microblock Reference 

Guide

.

You do not need to use BACnet microblocks 
when writing the GFB, unless you have a 
BACview Keypad Display connected to the 
UNI. You must then use BACnet point 
microblocks to access U551 points through 
the keypad. 

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 U551.

Point Identifiers in WebCTRL

Enter the point identifiers in Eikon for 
WebCTRL before the FB is made or on the FB’s 
Properties page in WebCTRL. Set the type, 
number, and minimum and maximum 
present values for each point on the U551. 
Select a physical point type from the 

Point 

Type

 field and enter the number of the input 

or output. If needed, enter an expander 
number. To scale a linear signal type, enter 
the appropriate minimum and maximum 
present values on the microblock’s dialog 
box.

If you are not using a LogiStat in a WebCTRL 
system but would like to use the two inputs 
that are available on the LogiStat port, assign 
an address of 16 for the temperature input 
and 17 for the setpoint input. 

Channel Numbers in SuperVision

Refer to Table 2 and Table 3 for channel 
numbers for each physical point on the U551. 
The channel number, offset, and gain for each 
point can be entered in Eikon before the 
Function Block is made, or on the FB’s 
Parameter page in SuperVision.
