FB_MTP_MonBinVlv

The function block FB_MTP_MonBinVlv is an object for controlling a binary valve from different sources: internal PLC logic or manual operation (e. g. via OPC UA). Switching requests are managed via the state machine Operation Mode. It also includes the option of monitoring the output value with the respective feedback. The OPC UA access rights are described in the variable tables.

Controlling the valve

The specification for opening and closing the valve is made via the switching requests Open* and Close*. The state machine of the Operation Mode manages whether and from which source new switching requests are processed. For simultaneous requests from Open* and Close*, Close* has the highest priority. If Locking is active, control of the outputs via the switching requests is prevented or the safety position is assumed.

Safety position

The safety position is defined via the variables SafePosEn and SafePos .

The variable SafePosEn is used to describe whether the valve has a fixed safety position (SafePosEn = TRUE) or whether the current position should be maintained (SafePosEn = FALSE).

The safety position is described with SafePos:

SafePos = FALSE: Safety position of the valve: closed

SafePos = TRUE: Safety position of the valve: open

Monitoring

The control and the respective Feedback can be monitored with the Feedback monitoring.
