REMOTE CONTROL FUNCTION ICON

FUNCTION:

The Remote Control icon has a logic output that can be controlled real-time by the user. This output can be connected to the logic input of any other icon.

INPUTS:

Update Clock: Output is updated to the last user selected state upon each Update clock pulse. For example, it the connected Update clock is set for 60 sec., and the output state is changed by the user via HyperWare(described below), the actual state of the output will not update until the icon receives an Update pulse which may be up to 60 seconds later.

OUTPUTS:

Output Signal: Logic type. The Remote Control icon updates its output after receiving a user generated command to do so from HyperWare.

For example, the portion of a net program depicted above shows posible uses for the Remote Control icon.The Remote Control icons labeled “Relay #1” and “Relay #2” are connected to the logger’s relay output icons. This would enable the user to control the state of the logger’s hardware relay outputs real-time. The Remote Control icon labled “Log T-In” is connected to the Enable input on a Thermocouple icon which is set to log data to memory. Whenever the Thermocouple’s enable input is ON, the channel will sample. Conversely, if its Enable input is OFF, it will not sample. This setup allows the user to turn on different portions of a net program at will
