Function description

General

This function block is used to control the position of a 3-point valve actuator via the outputs Enable - valve opening after manual override xHBOpen or xHBClose. The current valve position is continuously calculated and is available at the output rPos available. The following function blocks are essentially used:

Abs3P

ManBin

Position3P

Anti-blocking process

This process is implemented by monitoring signals 1 and 2 for activity and, if necessary, by triggering the anti-lock protection. The inspection period covers 168 hours each time ( = 1 week ). Signals 1 and 2 are active if they are continuously active during the minimum operating duration of 30.0s within the inspection period ( Only signal 1 or only signal 2 or both ). The anti-lock protection process is thus prevented, the inspection time restarts. Signal 1: ( xYOpen AND eAOOOpen = HVACTYPES.eManBin.Auto ) OR ( eAOOOpen = HVACTYPES.eManBin.ManOn ) Signal 2: ( xYClose AND eAOOClose = HVACTYPES.eManBin.Auto ) OR ( eAOOClose = HVACTYPES.eManBin.ManOn ) If no activity was detected during the inspection period, the anti-lock protection process on the weekday eAbsDay at the time todAbsStartTime . At the same time, the inspection period restarts. The active anti-blocking process is divided into two consecutive time sections (Section 1 and Section 2) In Section 1, during the time duration udiAbsTime the combination Enable - Output xABOpen = TRUE, Enable - Output xABClose = FALSE is output. In Section 2, during the time duration udiAbsTime the combination Enable - Output xABOpen = FALSE, Enable - Output xABClose = TRUE is output. The initial triggering of the anti-blocking process can be delayed depending on the relevant settings (Weekday eAbsDay and todAbsStartTime ) will be delayed.

Example

Inspection time ended on Tuesday morning, triggering of the anti-lock protection process only on the coming Monday.

At the output dtAbsLastOn the start date and start time of the last anti-lock protection process are available.

Prerequisite for using the Abs3P function block

The use of the TimeRead2 function block is required for correct operation.

Enable - valve opening before manual override xABOpen

The enable - valve opening before manual override xABOpen is influenced by the input Request - valve opening xYOpen and the anti-lock protection module.

xYOpen	Anti-blocking process	xABOpen	Notes
FALSE	FALSE	FALSE	Request not active, no anti-lock protection process
X	TRUE	Section 1: TRUE Section 2: FALSE	Anti-lock protection process active
TRUE	FALSE	TRUE	Request active, no anti-lock protection process

Legend: X = don't care

Enable - valve closing before manual override xABClose

The enable - valve closing before manual override xABClose is influenced by the input Request - valve closing xYClose and the anti-lock protection module.

xYClose	Anti-blocking process	xABClose	Notes
FALSE	FALSE	FALSE	Request not active, no anti-lock protection process
X	TRUE	Section 1: FALSE Section 2: TRUE	Anti-lock protection process active
TRUE	FALSE	TRUE	Request active, no anti-lock protection process

Enable - valve opening after manual override xHBOpen

The enable - valve opening after manual override xHBOpen corresponds to the enable - valve opening before manual override xABOpen additionally extended by a manual override module and by a forced override.

xABOpen	eManModeOpen	xForce	xForceOption	xHBOpen	Notes
FALSE	eMANBIN.Auto	FALSE	X	FALSE	Manual override module in automatic
TRUE	eMANBIN.Auto	FALSE	X	TRUE	Manual override module in automatic

X	eMANBIN.Off	FALSE	X	FALSE	Manual override module in manual operation Off
X	X	TRUE	FALSE	FALSE	Forced override Off
X	X	TRUE	TRUE	TRUE	Forced override On

Enable - valve closing after manual override xHBClose

The enable - valve closing after manual override xHBClose corresponds to the enable - valve closing before manual override xABClose additionally extended by a manual override module and by a forced override.

xABClose	eManModeOpen	xForce	xForceOption	xHBClose	Notes
FALSE	eMANBIN.Auto	FALSE	X	FALSE	Manual override module in automatic
TRUE	eMANBIN.Auto	FALSE	X	TRUE	Manual override module in automatic

X	eMANBIN.Off	FALSE	X	FALSE	Manual override module in manual operation Off
X	X	TRUE	FALSE	FALSE	Forced override Off
X	X	TRUE	TRUE	TRUE	Forced override On

Forced control of the manual overrides of the outputs

If the operating mode of manual override - valve opening eManModeOpen is in the state eMANBIN.On ( = manual override open active ), then the operating mode of manual override - valve closing eManModeClose is forced into the state eMANBIN.Off ( = manual override close not active ). If the operating mode of manual override - valve closing eManModeClose is in the state eMANBIN.On ( = manual override close active ), then the operating mode of manual override - valve opening eManModeOpen is forced into the state eMANBIN.Off ( = manual override open not active ).

Current valve position rPos

It is used to display the current position of the 3-point actuator in the range 0 - 100% and is calculated from the duration of the signals at the outputs Enable - valve opening after manual override xHBOpen and Enable - valve closing after manual override xHBClose in combination with the runtime of the actuator tDuration calculated. The position display is independent of signal generation, i.e. if the position display reaches an end position ( 0% or 100% ), signals will still continue to be generated at the outputs xABOpen and xABClose or xHBOpen and xHBClose generated. The position display does not take into account any position changes caused by the manual override - hardware.

Aggregate fault xAlarm

The aggregate fault xAlarm is activated ( = TRUE ) if the input xAlarmIn is active. In all other cases the collective fault xAlarm is not activated ( = FALSE ).

Collective automatic mode message xAuto

The collective automatic mode message xAuto is set active ( = TRUE ) if the following conditions are met simultaneously:\

• Input eAOOUp = HVACTYPES.eManBin.Auto

• Input eAOODown = HVACTYPES.eManBin.Auto

• Setpoint / parameter eManModeUp = eMANBIN.Auto

• Setpoint / parameter eManModeDown = eMANBIN.Auto

Forced override xForce

The forced override acts directly on the outputs xHBOpen and xHBClose. With the parameter xForceOption it is defined which state the output xHB assumes at TRUE on the input xForce takes. When xForceOption = FALSE If the input xForce is TRUE, then the output xHBOpen is set to FALSE and at the same time the output xHBClose is set to TRUE. When xForceOption = TRUE If the input xForce is TRUE, then the output xHBOpen is TRUE and at the same time the output xHBClose is set to FALSE.
