H1 Carrier Multiple Discrete Output function block parameters

The following table lists the system parameters for the H1 Carrier Multiple Discrete Output function block:

Table: H1 Carrier Multiple Discrete Output function block system parameters
Parameter	Units	Description
ABNORM_ACTIVE	None	The indication that a block error condition not selected in BAD_MASK is True (Active).
ALERT_KEY	None	A user-assigned identification number reported in alarm messages from the block that allows HMI applications to sort and filter alarms and events. Set this parameter for each function block to indicate the physical unit the function block is associated with. This information can be used in the host for sorting alarms, and so on.
BAD_ACTIVE	None	The indication that a block error condition selected in BAD_MASK is True (Active).
BAD_MASK	None	The set of active error conditions that triggers a user-defined Bad condition. The user selects a subset of block error (BLOCK_ERR) conditions in the BAD_MASK parameter. When any of these conditions are True, the BAD_ACTIVE parameter becomes True. When any of the BLOCK_ERR conditions that are not included in BAD_MASK are True, ABNORM_ACTIVE becomes True.
BKCAL_OUT_D	None	The value and status required by the BKCAL_IN_D input of another block.
BLOCK_ERR	None	The summary of active error conditions associated with the block. The possible block errors for the H1 Carrier Multiple Discrete Output function block are: Out of Service Output Failure Input Failure/Bad PV Simulate Active
CAS_IN_D	None	The remote setpoint value from another block.
CHANNEL	None	The number of the logical hardware channel that is connected to the I/O block. It defines the transducer to be used going to or from the physical world.
FSTATE_TIME	Seconds	The time in seconds from detection of fault of the output block remote setpoint to the output action of the block output if the condition still exists.
FSTATE_VAL_D	EU of PV	The preset discrete SP_D value to use when fault occurs. Ignored if the I/O option Fault State to value is false.
IO_OPTS	None	I/O options allow you to select how the I/O signals are processed. The supported options are: Use PV for BKCAL_OUT Tgt to Man if Fault St Active Use Fault st val on restart Fault State to value SP-PV Track in LO or IMan SP-PV Track in Man Invert.
MODE	None	The mode record of the block. Contains the actual, target, permitted, and normal modes.
OUT_D	None	The 8-bit integer output value and status.
PV_D	None	The 8-bit integer process variable calculated from READBACK_D.
RCAS_IN_D	None	The remote setpoint value and status. Input provided by a device or the output of another block.
RCAS_OUT_D	None	The remote setpoint value and status output provided to a device to allow action to be taken under mode change.
READBACK_D	None	The value and status of OUT_D unless simulation is enabled, in which case it is the simulated value and status.
SHED_OPT	None	Defines action to be taken on remote control device time out.
SIMULATE_D	None	Enables simulation and allows you to enter an 8-bit integer value and status.
SP_D	None	The discrete target block output value (setpoint).
ST_REV	None	The revision level of the static data associated with the function block. To support tracking changes in static parameter fields, the associated block's static revision parameter is incremented each time a static parameter field value is changed. Also, the associated block's static revision parameter is incremented if a static parameter field is written but the value is not changed.
STATUS_OPTS	None	Status options allow you to select options for status handling and processing. The only available options is: Propagate Fault Backward
STRATEGY	None	Used to identify groupings of blocks. This data is not checked or processed by the block.
XD_STATE	None	Index to the text describing the states of a discrete for the value obtained from the transducer.
