FB_HVACCmdCtrl_8

FB_HVACCmdCtrl_8 1:

Application

With this function block, individual aggregates in a system can be sequentially switched on (bQ_Cmd > bQ1 > bQ2 ... bQ8) or switched off (bQ8 > bQ7 > bQ6 ... bQ_Cmd). FB_HVACCmdCtrl_8 can be used as the starting function block of a ventilation system.

An event and a parameter structure with time variables belong to each output. These can be used to define a switch-on or switch-off delay as well as a minimum switch-on or minimum switch-off duration of the output.

Switch-on condition if and are TRUE: bEn bCmd

Q(n) = Q(n - 1) AND Event(n) AND (DelayOn(n) = 0 AND (MinOff(n) = 0 ANDstState.udiStep = n

Example for the output bQ_Cmd

bQ_Cmd = bCmdANDstState.udiSecRT_DelayOn = 0 ANDstState.udiSecRT_MinOff[0] = 0 ANDstState.udiStep = 0

Example for the output bQ2

bQ2 = bQ1ANDbEvt2ANDstState.udiSecRT_DelayOn = 0 ANDstState[2].udiSecRT_MinOff = 0 ANDstState.udiStep = 2

Switch-off condition if and are TRUE: bEn bCmd

Q(n) = NOT Q(n + 1) AND (DelayOff(n) = 0 AND (MinOn(n) = 0 ANDstState.udiStep = n

Example for the output bQ8

bQ8 = stState.udiSecRT_DelayOff = 0 ANDstState[7].udiSecRT_MinOn = 0 ANDstState.udiStep = 8

Example for the output bQ_Cmd

bQ_Cmd = NOTbQ1 AND stState.udiSecRT_DelayOff = 0 ANDstState[0].udiSecRT_MinOn = 0 ANDstState.udiStep = 0

Current step

On the basis of the status variable stState.udiStep it is possible to see which step the function block is currently in.

Switch-on and switch-off sequence

If bEn and bCmd are TRUE, the switch-on sequence is (bQ_Cmd > bQ1 > bQ2 ... bQ8). The switch-off sequence (bQ8 > bQ7 > bQ6 ... bQ_Cmd) is active ifbEn = TRUE and bCmd = FALSE.

If an output has been set in the switch-on sequence, then it remains latched and is only reset in the switch-off phase. In the switch-off sequence, no event (bEvt1-8) has any effect on the switch-off conditions of the outputs.

If the function block is in the switch-off sequence and the switch-on phase is activated by bCmd = TRUE, then the function block starts in step 0 with the switch-on conditions of bQ_Cmd. For the other outputs the minimum switch-on or switch-off times are active until their expiry.

eDST:if eDST := eHVACDataSecurityType_Persistent, the persistent VAR_IN_OUT variables of the function block are stored in the flash of the computer if a value changes. For this to work, the function block FB_HVACPersistentDataHandling must be instanced once in the main program, which is called cyclically. Otherwise the instanced FB is not released internally.

A change of value can be initiated by the building management system, a local operating device or via a write access from TwinCAT. When the computer is restarted, the saved data are automatically read back from the flash into the RAM.

Application example: FB_HVACCmdCtrl_8 4:Example_PERSISTENT.zip

If eDST:= eHVACDataSecurityType_Idle the persistently declared variables are not saved in a fail-safe manner.

Notice

A cyclically changing variable must never be linked with the IN_OUT variable of a function block, if eDST:= eHVACDataSecurityType_Persistent. It would lead to early wear of the flash memory.

bEn: enable of the function block. The function block is disabled if bEn is FALSE. All outputs go to FALSE and the timers for the switch-on and switch-off delays as well as the minimum switch-on and switch-off times are reset. A collective error message or an emergency stop switch for immediately switching off a system can be connected to the input bEn.

bCmd: the switch-on or switch-off sequence of the function block is defined with bCmd. If bCmd is TRUE, then the function block is in the switch-on sequence of the outputs. The switching on of a system could come, for example, from a timer program. If bCmd is FALSE, then the function block is in the switch-off sequence of the outputs.
