Block Modes
The gauge supports three block modes: Automatic (AUTO), Manual
(MAN), and Out of Service (OOS).
Automatic mode is the normal operating mode of the block. In this mode,
the block uses a local set point value in the normal block algorithm to
determine the output value.
In Out Of Service mode, the block is disabled. This mode is typically used
during block configuration. When a block is placed into OOS mode, its
output is held at the last value.
In Manual mode, the block output is set by the operator through the
interface device.
