4) Decide on the function block system configuration.
AI 4-point/AO
4-point Terminal
PV
Basic PID
Block
Model 011
Analog input
MV
Analog output
See Section 5 Examples of Function Block Combinations.
Refer to the Function Block Reference Manual.
5) Decide on the data to be monitored and manipulated by CX-Process
Monitor.
Refer to the CX-Process Monitor Operation Manual.
6) Assess the load rate and the external I/O refresh cycle.
See 1-2 Configuration of Instrumentation System.
See 3-2 Description of Operation.
7) Assess fail-safe countermeasures.
See 3-5 Fail-safe Countermeasure Guidelines.
2. Preparing Function Block Data (by CX-Process Tool)
1) Set up and start CX-Process Tool.
Prepare the function block
data on CX-Process Tool
running on the computer.
Refer to CX-Process Tool Operation Manual.
2) Set the System Common block data.
(For example, set the operation cycle and leading Data Memory address
for the Node Terminals.)
Refer to the Function Block Reference Manual.
3) In CX-Process Tool, wire the analog signals between the Selector blocks
(analog signals and accumulated value signals only).
Refer to the CX-Process Tool Operation Manual.
