CONFIGURING THE SEQUENCE BLOCK
11-9
Defining the I/O Modules
The I/O modules required for this application example are as follows:
Three digital input modules to accept the signals from the high level switch, low level
switch, and the feedback signal from the drain valve.
One RTD module to accept the product temperature signal (an RTD input function block
is required to condition the signal from the RTD module).
Two digital output modules to generate the open and close signals for the fill valve and
drain valve.
See
IB-23G600 for more information about I/O modules. Define the I/O modules using the
step-by-step instructions in Table 11-7.
Table 11-7. I/O Module Definition Procedure
1 From the Algorithm window, select the following icons
and place them in the workspace:
3 DIM (Digital Input Modules)
1 WRIM (3-Wire RTD Module)
2 DOM (Digital Output Modules)
2 Double click to query the first DIM. The Digital Input
Module Block properties appear.
3 Select the Name field and type the name LSL-1M. Also
enter the proper slot number for the module.
The default values for all other block
attributes are acceptable without
change. Note that it is not necessary
to specify a number in the Slots field.
The slot location can also be defined
using the I/O Graphic display.
4 Select OK. Note that the assigned tag name now
appears in the DIM block.
5 Using the procedure of Steps 2 through 4, assign
names to each remaining I/O module as follows:
Second DIM: LSH-1M
Third DIM DrainingM
WRIM TE
First DOM Fill
Second DOM Drain
6 From the Algorithm window, select the following icons
and place them in the workspace. Assign names to
each block as follows
First DI (Digital Input Block) LSL-1
Second DI (Digital Input Block) LSH-1
Third DI (Digital Input Block) Draining
1 RTI (RTD Input Block) TI
9 Select the RTI block Temperature Scale Field and
select Fahrenheit.
Default entries for all other attributes
are acceptable without change.
10 Select enter to return to the workspace display.
