Block model
See page 27 for parameter list.
All time specifications in the Resource Block are specified in the unit of 1/32 ms according to
the FOUNDATION™ fieldbus Specification Version 1.7.
In the Device Description Library supplied by Fieldbus
F
OUNDATION

upon which the device
description of Type 3730-5 is also based, these parameters are incorrectly specified as the
unit of ms. The specified values supplied by the device are, however, always to be interpreted
as the unit of 1/32 ms.

Transducer Blocks
Transducer Blocks link the function blocks to the input and output variables of a field device.
For example, the DI Function Blocks are linked to the physical binary inputs, an internal sole
-
noid valve, the current valve position or the condensed state of the positioner. This link to the
various Transducer Blocks is made over the CHANNEL parameter of the individual function
blocks. The table below shows how CHANNEL is assigned to the function block:
CHANNEL
Function block

DO2
The Transducer Blocks DI TRD and DO TRD are implemented according to the
FOUNDATION™ fieldbus specification and do not contain any manufacturer-specific
parameters.
