5. CONFIGURATION
5.6.2 Trend Object
It is possible to set the parameter so that the function
block automatically transmits Trend. EJA has five
Trend objects, four of which are used for Trend in
analog mode parameters and one is used for Trend in
discrete mode parameter. A single Trend object
specifies the trend of one parameter.
Each Trend object has the parameters listed in Table
5.8. The first four parameters are the items to be set.
Before writing to a Trend object, it is necessary to
release the WRITE_LOCK parameter.

Parameters
Description
1 Block Index
Sets the leading index of 
the function block that 
takes a trend. 
2 Parameter Relative 
Index
Sets the index of 
parameters taking a trend 
by a value relative to the 
beginning of the function 
block. In the EJA AI block, 
the following three types of 
trends are possible.
 7: PV
 8: OUT
19: FIELD_VAL
3 Sample Type
Specifies how trends are 
taken. Choose one of the 
following 2 types:
1: Sampled upon 
execution of a function 
block.
2: The average value is 
sampled.
4 Sample Interval
Specifies sampling 
intervals in units of 1/32 
ms. Set the integer 
multiple of the function 
block execution cycle.
5 Last Update
The last sampling time. 
6 to 21 List of Status
Status part of a sampled 
parameter.
21 to 37 List of Samples
Data part of a sampled 
parameter.
Five trend objects are factory-set as shown Table 5.9.

5.6.3 View Object
This object forms group of parameters in a block. One
advantage brought by forming groups of parameters is
the reduction of load for data transaction. EJA has four
View Objects for each Resource block, Transducer
block and AI1.AI2 function block, and each View
Object has the parameters listed in Table 5.11 to 5.13.

Set of all the dynamic parameters.
Description
Set of dynamic parameters required by operator 
for plant operation. (PV, SV, OUT, Mode etc.)
Set of static parameters which need to be 
shown to plant operator at once. (Range etc.)
Set of static parameters for configuration or 
maintenance.
