A5.18 Alarm Processing of Block
There are two kinds of alarms generated by the PID block: Block and process alarms.
A5.18.1 Block Alarm (BLOCK_ALM)
The block alarm (BLOCK_ALM) is generated upon the occurrence of either of the following errors
(values set in BLOCK_ERR) and notifies the content of BLOCK_ERR.
Name
Condition
Local Override
If MODE_BLK actual of PID block is LO.
Input Failure
If the PV status is Bad, that is, the IN status is Bad, or the IN status is Uncertain
and when the “Use Uncertain as Good” bit of STATUS_OPTS is not set
Out of Service
If MODE_BLK.target of the PID block is the OS mode.
A5.18.2 Process Alarms
There are six types of process alarms. Only one process alarm can be generated at the same
time, and the process alarm having the highest priority level from among those occurring at the
same time is generated. To activate an alarm on communication, it is necessary to specify the
priority for alarm activation in advance. To activate an alarm, set 3 or more. By sending with
priority information being added in a communication frame when the alarm is activated, for
example, the alarm is used to apply a filter to ignore values below the specified priority on the
host side.
The priority level should be set for each process alarm type.
Parameter
Name
Cause of Occurrence
Parameter
Containing
Priority Level
Setting
HI_HI_ALM
Occurs when the PV increases above the HI_HI_LIM
value.
HI_HI_PRI
HI_ALM
Occurs when the PV increases above HI_LIM value.
HI_PRI
LO_ALM
Occurs when the PV decreases below the LO_LIM value. LO_PRI
LO_LO_ALM Occurs when the PV decreases below the LO_LO_LIM
value.
LO_LO_LIM
DV_HI_ALM
Occurs when the value of [PV - SP] increases above the
DV_HI_LIM value.
DV_HI_PRI
DV_LO
Occurs when the value of PV - SP decreases below the
DV_LO_LIM value.
