Station Type Ċ The station type of a point primarily determines who
controls the set point and where the set point originates. Valid station
types include:
H Man H Aut/Man/DDC
H Aut/Man H Man/DDC
H Aut/Man/RSP H Aut/Man/DDC/Sup
H Aut/Man/Sup H Aut/Man/DDC/Sup/RSP
The valid station types for a point also depend upon the selected PCA
type. Refer to Table NO TAG (page NO TAG) for a list of valid PCA /
Station combinations.
Strategy Ċ The strategy field is a 16-character text field that can be
used to help group points together. For example, if the plant consists of
a boiler, a reactor, and a tank, the strategy field of each point could be
set to either Boiler", Reactor", or Tank". This data is not checked or
processed in any way, but points can be sorted by the strategy field.
4.3.2 Primary Control Algorithm (PCA)
Index Ċ The point index uniquely identifies this point, and, when
specified, may be used in place of the point tag to access this point.
Generally, the first Direct Control point that is configured is assigned
point index number 1, and the following points are numbered
consecutively.
Action Ċ Defines the relationship between a change in PV and a
corresponding change in IVP. When DIRECT is selected, an increase in
PV results in an increase in the IVP. When REVERSE is selected, an
increase in PV results in a decrease in the IVP. For example, if a valve is
controlling the flow of water through a pipe, the valve must close (IVP
decrease) as the flow increases beyond set point. Therefore, the
appropriate selection would be REVERSE. The loop action may be
changed using DDP #9, REV ACT?
ARW High Limit Ċ The Anti-Reset Windup (ARW) high limit sets the
upper limit for the anti-reset windup function of the PI/PID/I PCA. In a
situation where a Direct Control point has reached an output limit and the
integral action has been stopped to prevent windup, it may be desirable
to have the IVP move very rapidly once it comes off its limit. The ARW
function provides the option of having the integral term of the Direct
Control point decrease, or unwind, at a speed 16 times the normal reset
speed. This reduces the effects of reset windup on PV overshoot. The
valid range is -13.97 to 113.97 percent, and is tunable using DDP #21,
ARW HILM.
