Advanced Configuration Lab
6.1 Foreword
Many control strategies involve calculations and math functions besides PID control. The
53MC5000 controller can perform math and logic functions in addition to PID control.
Table 5.1 lists the function blocks that are available in the 53MC5000 controller.
6.2 Objectives
In this lab we will add 2 inputs and show the result in a display. We will also configure a
display for this purpose.
After completing this lab, you should know how to
• Identify the function of a Math Block
• Select function to sum two inputs and attach 2 inputs to the math block for addition
• Set-up a parameter display to indicate the two inputs and the result of the math
block
• Simulate inputs in the 53MC5000 controller for the addition
