Input options

The input options (INPUT_OPTS) allow you to set the options for using IN and IN_LO when Uncertain. They also allow you to set the options for using IN_1, IN_2 and IN_3 when any are either Bad or Uncertain. When a particular option is not selected and the status is Bad or Uncertain, the last usable value is used. A value is usable if the status is Good or if the status is not Good but the input option for that status (Bad or Uncertain) is selected to use it. To change the input options while using the on-line view, first change the mode to OOS. The following input options are supported in the Arithmetic function block:
  • IN_3 Use Bad — If selected, the IN_3 Use Bad option uses the value of IN_3, even if the status equals Bad.

  • IN_3 Use Uncertain — If selected, the IN_3 Use Uncertain option uses the value of IN_3, even if the status equals Uncertain.

  • IN_2 Use Bad — If selected, the IN_2 Use Bad option uses the value of IN_2, even if the status equals Bad.

  • IN_2 Use Uncertain — If selected, the IN_2 Use Uncertain option uses the value of IN_2, even if the status equals Uncertain.

  • IN_1 Use Bad — If selected, the IN_1 Use Bad option uses the value of IN_1, even if the status equals Bad.

  • IN_1 Use Uncertain — If selected, the IN_1 Use Uncertain option uses the value of IN_1, even if the status equals Uncertain.

  • IN_LO Use Uncertain — If selected, the IN_LO Use Uncertain option uses the value of IN_LO, even if the status equals Uncertain.

  • IN Use Uncertain — If selected, the IN Use Uncertain option uses the value of IN, even if the status equals Uncertain.
