Section 3: Configuration
November 2014
Configuration
3.3.1 Interfacing analog transmitters to FOUNDATION fieldbus
Transducer block configuration
Use the sensor configuration method to set the sensor type to mV – 2-wire for the applicable
transducer block or follow these steps.
1. Set the MODE_BLK.TARGET to OOS mode, or set the SENSOR_MODE to configuration.
2. Set the SENSOR to mV.
3. Set the MODE_BLK.TARGET to AUTO, or set the SENSOR_MODE to operation.
Multiple analog input or analog input block configuration
Follow these steps to configure the applicable block.
1. Set the MODE_BLK.TARGET to OOS mode, or set the SENSOR_MODE to configuration.
2. Set CHANNEL to the transducer block configured for the analog input.
3. Set XD_SCALE.EU_0 to 20
Set XD_SCALE.EU_100 to 100
Set XD_SCALE.ENGUNITS to mV
4. SET OUT_SCALE to match the desired scale and units for the connected analog
transmitter.
Flow Example: 0 – 200 gpm
OUT_SCALE.EU_0 = 0
OUT_SCALE.EU_100 = 200
OUT_SCALE.ENGUNITS = gpm
5. Set L_TYPE to INDIRECT.
6. Set the MODE_BLK.TARGET to AUTO, or set the SENSOR_MODE to operation.
3.4 Block configuration
3.4.1 Resource block
The resource block defines the physical resources of the device including type of measurement,
memory, etc. The resource block also defines functionality, such as shed times, that is common
across multiple blocks. The block has no linkable inputs or outputs and it performs
memory-level diagnostics.
Table 3-2. Resource Block Parameters
Number Parameter Description
01 ST_REV The revision level of the static data associated with the function block.
02 TAG_DESC The user description of the intended application of the block.
03 STRATEGY The strategy field can be used to identify grouping of blocks.
04 ALERT_KEY The identification number of the plant unit.
05 MODE_BLK The actual, target, permitted, and normal modes of the block. For further
description, see the Mode parameter formal model in FF-890.
06 BLOCK_ERR This parameter reflects the error status associated with the hardware or software
components associated with a block. Multiple errors may be shown. For a list of
enumeration values, see FF-890, Block_Err formal model.
