This topic explains how to implement the Output Override Monitoring feature.

Effective Command inputs monitor the current command and the priority of the current command to an output object and make these values available for use within the application. These values are currently used by the Override Monitoring feature that prevents PID logic blocks from winding up and tuning incorrectly when the actual control outputs are overridden.

Scenarios where you might want to add an Effective Command input for an output include:

  • when a system has more stages than are currently supported by the application. An example of this scenario is a unit with more than eight stages of cooling. This configuration requires that you manually add extra binary outputs for the additional stages. Then, you must replace the MSC 08 module with the appropriate MSC for the actual number of stages present in your application (up to 12 stages). To add override monitoring for the additional stages, you must add Effective Command inputs to match the new binary outputs you just added.

  • when you need to add a custom control loop. We recommended you select a Sideloop for a custom control loop. Even if the logic within the sideloop is not complete enough to meet the specification for your application, the override monitoring feature for the outputs is automatically added. Then, you can modify the logic that enables the control loop to meet the specification.

If a loop requires that you manually add an analog output, and you want to use the override monitoring feature, you must add an associated Effective Command input to the Miscellaneous Inputs column of the Control View to provide this feature.

To add an effective command input for an output:

  1. Add the output module. For detailed instructions on how to add an output to your application, see Adding an Output or Miscellaneous Output.
  2. Select and add the appropriate effective command miscellaneous input module using Table 1. For detailed instructions on how to add an input to your application, see Adding an Input or Miscellaneous Input.

    On the left side of the table, identify the output you added in Step 1. The right side of the table indicates the criteria to use when adding the associated effective command miscellaneous input module. The table includes the following columns to help configure the input/output pair:

    • Standard Name - Indicates the standard name of the module visible via the Rename dialog box.
    • Name - Indicates the name of the module visible in the Output and Miscellaneous Input columns of the Control View after the module is added to the application. A value of N/A in this column indicates that there is no available input/output pair.
    • Application - Indicates the Application filter to select in the Input Selection and Output Selection dialog boxes.
    • Function - Indicates the Function filter to select in the Input Selection and Output Selection dialog boxes.

      To add more than one input/output pair, the output must have a unique standard name within the application (visible via the Rename dialog box).

  3. Verify that the Object Identifier of the miscellaneous input module matches that of the associated output module by viewing the Object Identifier attribute in the Details dialog box for both modules.
