### Function description

#### General

This function block controls a binary motorized fire damper (*xEn* = TRUE), monitors the run times during the opening and closing processes and can perform a complete fire damper test.\
The function block can be operated either in normal mode or in test mode.\
The test mode has higher priority than normal mode and can be activated by a rising edge at the input *xTestEx* and/or at the setpoint / parameter **xRunTest** is triggered.

#### Enable opening / closing of the fire damper before manual override *xAB*

The enable for opening / closing of the fire damper before manual override *xAB* is passed unchanged from the request to open / close the fire damper *xEn* if the fire damper test is not active.

#### Release for opening / closing the fire damper after manual override *xHB*

The enable for opening / closing of the fire damper after manual override *xHB* corresponds to the enable for opening / closing of the fire damper before manual override *xAB* additionally extended by a manual override module

| *xAB* | **eManModeB**  | *xHB* | Notes                                          |
| ----- | -------------- | ----- | ---------------------------------------------- |
| FALSE | eMANBIN.Auto   | FALSE | Manual override module in automatic            |
| TRUE  | eMANBIN.Auto   | TRUE  | Manual override module in automatic            |
| X     | eMANBIN.ManOn  | TRUE  | Manual override module in manual operation On  |
| X     | eMANBIN.ManOff | FALSE | Manual override module in manual operation Off |

#### Aggregate fault *xAlarm*

The aggregate fault *xAlarm* is activated (= TRUE) if at least one of the conditions described below is met:

1\) The fault message for the open feedback *xAlarmOpen* is active (= TRUE).\
\
2\) The fault message for the closed feedback xAlarmClosed is active (= TRUE).\
\
3\) The fire damper is not fully open (xOpen = FALSE).\
(Background: Any fire damper not fully open is considered a faulty condition in normal operation).\
\
4\) The input \*xAlarmIn\* is active (= TRUE).\
\
5\) The input \*xSmokeAlarm\* is active (= TRUE).\
\
In all other cases the collective fault xAlarm is not activated (= FALSE).

#### Enable / disable of the fault message for the opening feedback *xAlarmOpen*

Monitoring of the damper run time during the opening process against an adjustable maximum value (**tOpen**) starts if in normal operation at least one of the conditions described below is met:

1\) A rising edge (FALSE > TRUE) is detected at the output *xHB* detected (= normal case).\
\
2\) The request to open is active (xEn = TRUE) and at the same time a rising edge (FALSE > TRUE) is detected at the input **xQuit** a rising edge (FALSE > TRUE) is detected.\
\
3\) The output xHB is active (= TRUE) and at the same time a falling edge (TRUE > FALSE) is detected at the input **xOpen** detected.\
\
The fault message for the open feedback **xAlarmOpen** is activated (= TRUE) if after the expiration of the maximum runtime **tOpen** with active output (xHB = TRUE) at least one of the following conditions is met:\
\
1\) The feedback for full opening is not active (xOpen = FALSE) (= normal case).\
\
2\) The feedbacks **xOpen** or **xClosed** have the same state.\
\
The fault message for the open feedback **xAlarmOpen** is deactivated (= FALSE) if at the input **xQuit** .

#### Release / locking of the fault message for the closed feedback *xAlarmClosed*

Monitoring of the damper run time during the closing process against an adjustable maximum value (**tclose**) starts if in normal operation at least one of the conditions described below is met:

1\) A falling edge (TRUE > FALSE) is detected at the output *xHB* detected (= normal case).\
\
2\) The request to close is active (xEn = FALSE) and at the same time a rising edge (FALSE > TRUE) is detected at the input **xQuit** a rising edge (FALSE > TRUE) is detected.\
\
The fault message for the closed feedback **xAlarmClosed** is activated (= TRUE) if after the expiration of the maximum runtime **tClose** with inactive output (xHB = FALSE) at least one of the following conditions is met:\
\
1\) The feedback for full closing is not active (xClosed = FALSE) (= normal case).\
\
2\) The feedbacks **xOpen** or **xClosed** have the same state.\
\
The fault message for the closed feedback **xAlarmClosed** is deactivated (= FALSE) if at the input **xQuit** .

#### Duration of the last full opening *tLastOpen*

The measurement of the duration begins each time if at least one of the conditions described below is met:

1\) A rising edge (FALSE > TRUE) is detected at the input *xOpen* detected.\
\
2\) A falling edge (TRUE > FALSE) is detected at the input xOpen.\
\
3\) A rising edge (FALSE > TRUE) is detected at the input xClosed.\
\
4\) A falling edge (TRUE > FALSE) is detected at the input xClosed. (normal case)\
\
5\) A rising edge (FALSE > TRUE) is detected at the output xHB.\
\
6\) A falling edge (TRUE > FALSE) is detected at the output xHB.\
\
After each rising edge on the full open feedback, the runtime is available at this output **xOpen** (FALSE > TRUE) the runtime is available.

#### Duration of the last full closing *tLastClosed*

The measurement of the duration begins each time if at least one of the conditions described below is met:

1\) A rising edge (FALSE > TRUE) is detected at the input *xOpen* detected.\
\
2\) A falling edge (TRUE > FALSE) is detected at the input xOpen. (normal case)\
\
3\) A rising edge (FALSE > TRUE) is detected at the input xClosed.\
\
4\) A falling edge (TRUE > FALSE) is detected at the input xClosed.\
\
5\) A rising edge (FALSE > TRUE) is detected at the output xHB.\
\
6\) A falling edge (TRUE > FALSE) is detected at the output xHB.\
\
After each rising edge on the full close feedback, the runtime is available at this output **xClosed** (FALSE > TRUE) the runtime is available.

#### Duration of the current opening / closing in *tRunTime*

During each run time measurement the current run time is available at this output.

#### Testing the functions of the fire damper (test mode)

Test mode is always generally triggered if at least one of the conditions described below is met:

1\) A rising edge (FALSE > TRUE) is detected at the input *xTestEx* detected.\
\
2\) the active state (= TRUE) is detected at the setpoint / parameter **xRunTest** detected. The active state is immediately reset (= FALSE) after detection.\
\
However, the actual test mode only takes place if the feedback of the automatic mode **eAOO** (0 = Automatic, >0 = Manual) contains the value 0 and at the same time the operating mode of the manual override for the digital output **xHB** signals automatic operation (eMANBIN = eMANBIN.Auto).\
\
In test mode the fire damper is closed and then opened, each with runtime monitoring. At the start of the test mode the outputs **xAlarmOpen**, **xAlarmClosed**, **tTestOpen**, **tTestClosed** and **xTestOK** are reset (= FALSE).\
\
Now the control command for closing is triggered and the runtime is monitored for exceeding the maximum value **tClosed** monitored. If the correct feedback situation (xClosed = TRUE and xOpen = FALSE) is achieved without exceeding the maximum value, then the output **xAlarmClosed** is not activated (= FALSE). In all other situations the output **xAlarmClosed** is activated (= TRUE).\
\
Now the control command for opening is triggered and the runtime is monitored for exceeding the maximum value **tOpen** monitored. If the correct feedback situation (xOpen = TRUE and xClosed = FALSE) is achieved without exceeding the maximum value, then the output **xAlarmOpen** is not activated (= FALSE). In all other situations the output **xAlarmOpen** is activated (= TRUE).\
\
The result indicator for the fire damper test **xTestOK** is activated (= test successful) if neither of the two outputs **xAlarmOpen** or **xAlarmClosed** is active (= TRUE). The values achieved **tLastOpen** and **tLastClosed** are each placed on the outputs **tTestOpen** and **tTestClosed** and stored until the next fire damper test.\
\
The test mode ends automatically as soon as the fire damper check is completed.
