3.ABOUT FIELDBUS
3. ABOUT FIELDBUS
3.1 Outline
Fieldbus is a bi-directional digital communication
protocol for field devices, which offers an advancement
in implementation technologies for process control
systems and is widely employed by numerous field
devices.
ADMAG AE Fieldbus communication type employs
the specification standardized by The Fieldbus
Foundation, and provides interoperability between
Yokogawa devices and those produced by other
manufacturers. Fieldbus comes with software
consisting of AI function block, providing the means to
implement a flexible instrumentation system.
For information on other features, engineering, design,
construction work, startup and maintenance of
Fieldbus, refer to “Fieldbus Technical Information” (TI
38K3A01-01E).

IM 1E7F1-01E
4.GETTING STARTED
4. GETTING STARTED
Fieldbus is fully dependent upon digital communication protocol and differs in operation from conventional 4 to 20 mA transmission and the BRAIN
communication protocol. It is recommended that
novice users use fieldbus devices in accordance with
the procedures described in this section. The
procedures assume that fieldbus devices will be set up
on a bench of an instrument shop.
4.1 Connection of Devices
The following instruments are required for use with
Fieldbus devices:
• Power supply:
Fieldbus requires a dedicated power supply. It is
recommended that current capacity be well over the
total value of the maximum current consumed by all
devices (including the host). Conventional DC
current cannot be used as is. For ADMAG AE,
power supply is required separately. ADMAG AE
current consumption does not concern the dedicated
power supply for Fieldbus.
• Terminator:
Fieldbus requires two terminators. Refer to the
supplier for details of terminators that are attached
to the host.
• Host:
Used for accessing field devices. A dedicated host
(such as DCS) is used for an instrumentation line
while dedicated communication tools are used for
experimental purposes. For operation of the host,
refer to the instruction manual for each host. No
details of the host are explained in the rest of this
material.
•Cable:
Used for connecting devices. Refer to “Fieldbus
Technical Information” (TI 38K3A01-01E) for
details of instrumentation cabling. If the total length
of the cable is in a range of 2 to 3 meters for
laboratory or other experimental use, the following
simplified cable (a twisted pair wire with a cross
section of 0.9 mm2 or more and cycle period of
within 5 cm (2 inches) may be used.) Termination
processing depends on the type of device being
deployed. For ADMAG AE, use an M4 screw
terminal. Some hosts require a connector.
Refer to Yokogawa when making arrangements to
purchase the recommended equipment.
Connect the devices as shown in Figure 4.2. Connect
the terminators at both ends of the trunk, with a
minimum length of the spur laid for connection.
The polarity of signal and power must be maintained.
•Field devices:
Connect Fieldbus communication type ADMAG
AE. Two or more ADMAG AE devices or other
devices can be connected. Refer to Figure 4.1
Terminal Connection for ADMAG AE.

4. GETTING STARTED
IMPORTANT
Connecting a Fieldbus configuration tool to a
loop with its existing host may cause communication data scrambles resulting in a functional
disorder or a system failure.
4.2 Host Setting
To activate Fieldbus, the following settings are
required for the host.
IMPORTANT
Do not turn off the power immediately after
setting. When the parameters are saved to the
EEPROM, the redundant processing is executed
for the improvement of reliability. If the power is
turned off within 60 seconds after setting is
made, the modified parameters are not saved
and the settings may return to the original
values.

4.3 Bus and ADMAG AE Power
ON
Turn on the power of the host, the bus and ADMAG
AE. Where the ADMAG AE is equipped with an LCD
indicator(option), first all segments are lit, then the
segments for a right-most digit are blinking till
communication starting. If the indicator is not lit, check
the voltage of the power supply for ADMAG AE.
Using the host device display function, check that the
ADMAG AE is in operation on the bus. Unless
otherwise specified, the following settings are in effect
when shipped from the factory.
PD tag: FT1002
Node address: 244 (hexadecimal F4)
Device ID: 5945430004xxxxxxxx (xxxxxxxx = a total
of 8 alphanumeric characters)
If no ADMAG AE is detected, check the available
address range. If the node address and PD Tag are not
specified when ordering, default value is factory set. If
two or more ADMAG AEs are connected at a time
with default value, only one ADMAG AE will be
detected from host as ADMAG AEs have the same
initial address. Separately connect each ADMAG AE
and set a different address for each.
4-2
IM 1E7F1-01E
4. GETTING STARTED
4.4 Integration of DD
If the host supports DD (Device Description), the DD
of the ADMAG AE needs to be installed. Check if host
has the following directory under its default DD
directory.
594543\0004
(594543 is the manufacturer number of Yokogawa
Electric Corporation, and 0004 is the ADMAG AE
device number, respectively.)
If this directory is not found, DD of ADMAG AE has
not been included. Create the above directory and copy
the DD file "0m0n.ffo,0m0n.sym" (m, n is a numeral)
into the directory.
If you do not have the DD file, you can download it
from our web site.
Visit the following web site.
http://www.yokogawa.com/fi/fieldbus/download.htm
Once the DD is installed in the directory, the name and
attribute of all parameters of the ADMAG AE are
displayed.
Off-line configuration is possible using Capability
file(CFF).
NOTE
Ensure to use the suitable file for the device.
ADMAG AE has two types, /FB-with a AI
function block, and /FB/LC1-with PID/LM
function. If the different type CFF is used, some
errors occur at downloading to the device.
4.7 Generation of Alarm
If the host is allowed to receive alarms, generation of
an alarm can be attempted from ADMAG AE. In this
case, set the reception of alarms on the host side.
ADMAG AE’s VCR-7 is factory-set for this purpose.
For practical purposes, all alarms are placed in a
disabled status; for this reason, it is recommended that
you first use one of these alarms on a trial basis. Set
the value of link object-3 (index 30002) as “0, 299, 0,
6, 0”. Refer to section 5.6.1 Link Object for details.
Since the LO_PRI parameter (index 4029) of the AI
block is set to “0”, try setting this value to “3”. Select
the Write function from the host in operation, specify
an index or variable name, and write “3” to it.
The LO_LIM parameter (index 4030) of the AI block
determines the limit at which the lower bound alarm
for the process value is given. In usual cases, a very
small value is set to this limit. Set 1 (the unit is same
as XD_SCALE unit) to the limit. Since the flow rate is
almost 0, a lower bound alarm is raised. Check that the
alarm can be received at the host. When the alarm is
confirmed, transmission of the alarm is suspended.
The above-mentioned items are a description of the
simple procedure to be carried out until ADMAG AE
is connected to Fieldbus. In order to take full advantage of the performance and functionality of the device,
it is recommended that it be read together with Chapter
5, where describes how to use the ADMAG AE.
4.5 Reading the Parameters
To read ADMAG AE parameters, select the AI block
of the ADMAG AE from the host screen and read the
OUT parameter. The current flow rate is displayed.
Check that MODE_BLOCK of the function block and
resource block is set to AUTO.
4.6 Continuous Record of Values
If the host has a function of continuously recording the
indications, use this function to list the indications
(values). Depending on the host being used, it may be
necessary to set the schedule of Publish (the function
that transmits the indication on a periodic basis).
4-3
IM 1E7F1-01E
5.CONFIGURATION
5. CONFIGURATION
This chapter contains information on how to adapt the
function and performance of the ADMAG AE to suit
specific applications. Because two or more devices are
connected to Fieldbus, settings including the
requirements of all devices need to be determined.
Practically, the following steps must be taken.
(1)Network design
Determines the devices to be connected to Fieldbus
and checks the capacity of the power supply.
(2)Network definition
Determines the PD tag and node addresses for all
devices.
(3)Definition of combining function blocks
Determines the method for combination between
each function block.
(4)Setting tags and addresses
Sets the PD Tag and node addresses one by one for
each device.
(5)Communication setting
Sets the link between communication parameters
and function blocks.
(6)Block setting
Sets the parameters for function blocks.
The following section describes each step of the
procedure in the order given. Using a dedicated
configuration tool allows the procedure to be significantly simplified. This section describes the procedure
to be assigned for a host which has relatively simple
functions. Refer to Appendix 5 when the ADMAG AE
is used as Link Master (option).
5.1 Network Design
Select the devices to be connected to the Fieldbus
network. The following instruments are necessary for
operation of Fieldbus.
• Power supply
Fieldbus requires a dedicated power supply. It is
recommended that current capacity be well over the
total value of the maximum current consumed by all
devices (including the host). For ADMAG AE,
separate power supply is required. Therefore,
ADMAG AE current consumption does not affect
the dedicated power supply for Fieldbus.
• Terminator
Fieldbus requires two terminators. Refer to the
supplier for details of terminators that are attached
to the host.
•Field devices
Connect the field devices necessary for instrumentation. ADMAG AE has passed the interoperability
test conducted by The Fieldbus Foundation. In order
to properly start Fieldbus, it is recommended that
the devices used satisfy the requirements of the
above test.
• Host
Used for accessing field devices. A minimum of one
device with bus control function is needed.
• Cable
Used for connecting devices. Refer to “Fieldbus
Technical Information” for details of instrumentation cabling. Provide a cable sufficiently long to
connect all devices. For field branch cabling, use
terminal boards or a connection box as required.
First, check the capacity of the power supply. The
power supply capacity must be greater than the sum of
the maximum current consumed by all devices to be
connected to Fieldbus. For ADMAG AE, separate
power supply is required. Thus, ADMAG AE current
consumption does not concern the dedicated power
supply for Fieldbus. The cable must have the spur in a
minimum length with terminators installed at both ends
of the trunk.
5.2 Network Definition
Before connection of devices with Fieldbus, define the
Fieldbus network. Allocate PD Tag and node addresses
to all devices (excluding such passive devices as
terminators).
The PD Tag is the same as the conventional one used
for the device. Up to 32 alphanumeric characters may
be used for definition. Use a hyphen as a delimiter as
required.
5-1
IM 1E7F1-01E
5. CONFIGURATION
The node address is used to specify devices for
communication purposes. Because data is too long for
a PD Tag, the host uses the node address in place of
the PD Tag for communication. A range of 16 to 247
(or hexadecimal 10 to F7) can be set. The device (LM
device) with bus control function (Link Master
function) is allocated from a smaller address number
(16) side, and other devices (BASIC device) without
bus control function allocated from a larger address
number (247) side respectively. Place ADMAG AE in
the range of the BASIC device. When the ADMAG
AE is used as Link Master (option), place ADMAG
AE in the range of LM device. Set the range of
addresses to be used to the LM device. Set the
following parameters.

The devices within the address range written as
“Unused” in Figure 5.1 cannot be used on a Fieldbus.
For other address ranges, the range is periodically
checked to identify when a new device is mounted.
Care must be taken not to allow the address range to
become wider, which can lead to exhaustive consumption of Fieldbus communication performance.

To ensure stable operation of Fieldbus, determine the
operation parameters and set them to the LM devices.
While the parameters in Table 5.2 are to be set, the
worst-case value of all the devices to be connected to
the same Fieldbus must be used. Refer to the specification of each device for details. Table 5.2 lists ADMAG

5.3 Definition of Combining
Function Blocks
The input/output parameters for function blocks are
combined. For the ADMAG AE, AI block output
parameter (OUT) and PID block (option) is subject to
combination. They are combined with the input of the
control block as necessary. Practically, setting is
written to the ADMAG AE link object with reference
to “Block setting” in Section 5.6 for details. It is also
possible to read values from the host at proper intervals
instead of connecting the ADMAG AE block output to
other blocks.
The combined blocks need to be executed synchronously with other blocks on the communications
schedule. In this case, change the ADMAG AE
schedule according to the following table. Enclosed
values in the table are factory-settings.

arranged as to start after a lapse of longer than 100 ms.
Figure 5.3 shows an example of schedule based on the
loop shown in Figure 5.2.

When the control period (macrocycle) is set to more
than 4 seconds, set the following interval to be
more than 1% of the control period.
- Interval between "end of block execution" and
"start of sending CD from LAS"
- Interval between "end of block execution" and
"starrt of the next block execution"
5.4 Setting of Tags and
Addresses
This section describes the steps in the procedure to set
PD Tags and node addresses in the ADMAG AE.
There are three states of Fieldbus devices as shown in
Figure 5.4, and if the state is other than the lowest
SM_OPERATIONAL state, no function block is
executed. ADMAG AE must be transferred to this state
when an ADMAG AE tag or address is changed.

F0504.EPS
ADMAG AE has a PD Tag (FT1002) and node address
(244, or hexadecimal F4) that are set upon shipment
from the factory unless otherwise specified. To change
only the node address, clear the address once and then
set a new node address. To set the PD Tag, first clear
the node address and clear the PD Tag, then set the PD
Tag and node address again.
Devices whose node address was cleared will await the
default address (randomly chosen from a range of 248
to 251, or from hexadecimal F8 to FB). At the same
time, it is necessary to specify the device ID in order to
correctly specify the device. The device ID of the
ADMAG AE is 5945430004xxxxxxxx. (The xxxxxxxx
at the end of the above device ID is a total of 8
alphanumeric characters.)

5.5 Communication Setting
To set the communication function, it is necessary to
change the database residing in SM-VFD.
5.5.1 VCR Setting
Set VCR (Virtual Communication Relationship), which
specifies the called party for communication and
resources. ADMAG AE has 16 VCRs whose application can be changed, except for the first VCR, which is
used for management.
ADMAG AE has VCRs of four types:
Server(QUB) VCR
A Server responds to requests from a host. This
communication needs data exchange. This type of
communication is called QUB (Queued Usertriggered Bidirectional) VCR.
Source (QUU) VCR
A Source multicasts alarms or trends to other
devices. This type of communication is called QUU
(Queued User-triggered Unidirectional) VCR.
Publisher (BNU) VCR
A Publisher multicasts AI block output to another
function block(s). This type of communication is
called BNU (Buffered Network-triggered Unidirectional) VCR.
Subscriber (BNU) VCR
A Subscriber receives output of another function
block(s) by PID block.
A Server VCR is capable to respond to requests from a
Client (QUB) VCR after the Client initiates connection
to the Server successfully. A Source VCR transmits
data without established connection. A Sink (QUU)
VCR on another device can receive it if the Sink is
configured so. A Publisher VCR transmits data when
LAS requests so. An explicit connection is established
from Subscriber (BNU) VCR(s) so that a Subscriber
knows the format of published data.
Each VCR has the parameters listed in Table 5.4.
Parameters must be changed together for each VCR
because modification for each parameter may cause
inconsistent operation.

5.6.4 AI Function Block Parameters
AI Function block parameters can be read or set from
the host. For a list of the parameters of blocks held by
the ADMAG AE, refer to "List of parameters for each
block of the ADMAG AE" in Appendix 1. The
following is a list of important parameters with a guide
to how to set them. For PID/LM function option, refer
to Appendix 4 and 5.
MODE_BLK:
Indicates the three types of function block modes;
Out_Of_Service, Manual, and Auto. In
Out_Of_Service mode, the AI block does not
operate. The Manual mode does not allow values to
be updated. The Auto mode causes the measured
value to be updated. Under normal circumstances,
set the Auto mode to take effect. The Auto mode is
the factory default.
CHANNEL:
This is the parameter of the transducer block to be
input to the AI block. AI block is assigned flow
rate. Do not change this setting.
XD_SCALE:
Scale of input from the transducer block. "0"(0%),
"10"(100%), and "m/s" for the unit are factory-set
unless otherwise specified. Changing the unit (can
be set only in flow rate) also causes the unit within
the transducer block to be automatically changed.
(The unit is automatically changed according to the
unit selected by AI.) Units which can be set by
XD_SCALE are shown below.
Specifies the operation function of the AI block. If
set to “Direct”, the input delivered to CHANNEL is
directly reflected on OUT. If set to “Indirect”,
scaling by XD_SCALE and OUT_SCALE is carried
out and is reflected on OUT. “Indirect SQRT” is
not used for ADMAG AE.
PV_FTIME:
Sets the time constant of the damping function
within AI block (primary delay) in seconds.
Alarm Priority:
Indicates the priority of the process alarm. If a value
of 3 or greater is set, an alarm is transmitted. The
factory default is 0. Four types of alarm can be set:
HI_PRI, HI_HI_PRI, LO_PRI, and LO_LO_PRI.
Alarm Threshold:
Sets the threshold at which a process alarm is
generated. The factory default setting is a value that
does not generate an alarm. Four types of alarm can
be set: HI_LIM, HI_HI_LIM, LO_LIM, and
LO_LO_LIM.
5.6.5 Transducer Block Parameters
The transducer block sets functions specific to the flow
rate measurement of the ADMAG AE. For a list of the
parameters of each block of the ADMAG AE, refer to
“List of parameters for each block of the ADMAG
AE” in Appendix 1. The following is a list of important parameters with a guide to how to set them.
LINE_SIZE:
Sets the size of the flow tube.
SIZE_UNIT:
Sets the unit of the flow tube size.
LOW_MF:
Sets the meter factor of low frequency side.
HIGH_MF:
Sets the meter factor of high frequency side.
For integral type ADMAG AE, these above parameters
are set when shipping. Please confirm with data plate.
For remote type AE14 converter, please set the above
parameters which are shown in the data plate on the
combined flow tube.
PRIMARY_VALUE_FTIME:
Sets output time constants. Setting range is 0.1 to
200sec. “ 3sec.” is factory set.
PRIMARY_VALUE_LOWCUT:
Sets low cut range for output. Setting range is 0 to
10%. “ 0%” is factory set. The larger absolute value
from EU at 100% or EU at 0% is used for the scale.
DISPLAY_MODE:
Sets the unit to be used for LCD display.
1=Out value
2=%
3=Totalized value
4=Reverse totalized value
5=Diff. totalized value
The factory default setting is 2.
DISPLAY_CYCLE:
Sets the cycle of LCD display. The display cycle is
500ms x (setting). The factory default setting is 1,
but if a low temperature environment makes it
difficult to view the display, it is recommended that
you set a longer display cycle.

6.IN-PROCESS OPERATION
6. IN-PROCESS OPERATION
This chapter describes the procedure performed when
changing the operation of the function block of the
ADMAG AE in process.
6.1 Mode T ransition
When the function block mode is changed to
Out_Of_Service, the function block pauses and a block
alarm is issued.
When the function block mode is changed to Manual,
the function block suspends updating of output values.
In this case alone, it is possible to write a value to the
OUT parameter of the block for output. Note that no
parameter status can be changed.
6.2 Generation of Alarm
6.2.1 Indication of Alarm
When the self-diagnostics function indicates that a
device is faulty, an alarm (device alarm) is issued from
the resource block. When an error (block error) is
detected in each function block or an error in the
process value (process alarm) is detected, an alarm is
issued from each block. If an LCD indicator is installed, the error number is displayed as AL-XX. If two
or more alarms are issued, multiple error numbers are
displayed in 2-second intervals. (when "1" is set to
DISPLAY_CYCLE). An alarm lamp(LED) flashes
during alarming.

T0603.EPS
When Simulate En/Disable in Table 6.3 above is set to
"Active", the applicable function block uses the
simulation value set in this parameter instead of the
data from the transducer block. This setting can be
used for propagation of the status to the trailing blocks,
generation of a process alarm, and as an operation test
for trailing blocks.
SIMU
6.3 Simulation Function
The simulation function simulates the input of a
function block and lets it operate as if the data was
received from the transducer block. It is possible to
conduct testing for the downstream function blocks or
alarm processes.
A SIMULATE_ENABLE jumper switch is mounted in
the ADMAG AE amplifier. This is to prevent the
accidental operation of this function. When jumper is
shortcircuited with a pin, simulation is enabled. (See
Figure 6.2.) To initiate the same action from a remote
terminal, if REMOTE LOOP TEST SWITCH is
written to SIM_ENABLE_MSG (index 1044 )
parameter of the resource block, the resulting action is
the same as is taken when the above switch is on. Note
that this parameter value is lost when the power is
turned OFF. In simulation enabled status, an alarm is
generated from the resource block, and other device
alarms will be masked; for this reason the simulation
must be disabled immediately after using this function.

Refer to “Tag and address” in Section 5.4.
Sets the range of input from the transducer block corresponding to the 0% and 100%
points in operation within the AI1 function block. The calibrated range (0% and 100%) is
the factory default setting.
Sets the range unit, input value of the 0% point (in case of ADMAG AE, 0), input value of
the 100% point (correspond to flow rate span), and the 4 data at the decimal point.
Sets the scale of output corresponding to the 0% and 100% points in operation within the
AI function block. It is possible to set a unit and scale that differs from the measurement
range.
Sets the range unit, input value of the 0% point (lower bound of output scale), input value
of the 100% point (upper bound of output scale), and the 4 data at the decimal point.
Selects the operation function of the AI function block. It may be chosen from among
Direct, Indirect, and IndirectSQRT.
Direct:

IndirectSQRT:
*The scale and unit of LCD indicator depend on this setting.
Performs simulation of the AI function block.
The input value and status for the calibration range can also be set.
It is recommended that this parameter be used for loop checks and other purposes. Refer
to “Simulation Function” in Section 6.3.
The output of the transducer block is directly output only via filtering without
scaling and square root extraction. (XD_SCALE)
Output processed by proportion at the AI function block. (OUT_SCALE)
Output processed by square root extraction at the AI function block.
IndirectSQRT is not used for ADMAG AE.

Sets the time constant of damping function in seconds.
The setting of PRIMARY_VALUE_FTIME affects not only flow rate but internal totalization.
The totalization is not affected by setting "No Damping" to TOTAL_OPTS of Al function
block. PV_FTIME of Al function block is a parameter for damping the value of Al OUT. It is
recommended to use PRIMARY_VALUE_FTIME for flowmeter's damping function.
Sets the low cut value in percent against the larger absolute value between EU at 100%
and EU at 0%. The hysteresis is 0.5% when the low cut functions and also is released.
LOW_CUT of Al function block is a parameter for low cut of Al OUT. It has 1% hysteresis
when the low cut is released. Do not make LOW_CUT functioned when flow measuring in
reverse direction, or the output is zero at any flow rate because the flow rate is always
regarded as under zero. It is recommended to use PRIMARY_VALUE_LOWCUT for
flowmeter's low cut function.
Sets the unit to be displayed on the LCD and the display speed.
Adjust display speed if a low temperature environment causes a poor LCD display quality.
Performs zero-point adjustment.
Zero-point adjustment should be done only when the fluid is filled in the flow tube and the
fluid velocity is completely zero.

to each parameter differs depending on the configuration system used. For details, refer to the instruction
manual for each configuration system.
Access the block mode (MODE_BLK) of each
block.
Set the Target
(MODE_BLK) to Auto, Man or O/S
according to the Write Mode of the parameter
to be set or changed.
Access the parameter to be set or changed.

The AI function block outputs the flow rate signals.
(1)Setting the calibration range
Access the XD_SCALE parameter.
Set the necessary unit to Units Index on
XD_SCALE.
Set the higher range value to EU at 100% on
XD_SCALE.
Set the lower range value to EU at 0% on
XD_SCALE.
Set the decimal position to Decimal Point.
FA0202.EPS
Example:
To measure 0 to 100m3/h,
Set m3/h (1349)* to Units Index on XD_SCALE,
Set 100 to EU at 100% on XD_SCALE, and
Set 0 to EU at 0% on XD_SCALE.
(2)Setting the output scale
IMPORTANT
Do not turn the power OFF immediately after
parameter setting. When the parameters are
saved to the EEPROM, the redundant
processing is executed for the improvement of
reliability. If the power is turned OFF within 60
seconds after setting of parameters, changed
parameters are not saved and may return to
their original values.
Note 1: Block mode consists of the following four modes that are
controlled by the universal parameter that displays the
running condition of each block.

A4.4PID Computation Details
A4.4.1 PV-proportional and -derivative
Type PID (I-PD) Control Algorithm
For PID control, the PID block in an ADMAG AE
employs the PV-proportional and PV-derivative type
PID control algorithm (referred to as the I-PD control
algorithm) in Auto and RCas mode. The I-PD control
algorithm ensures control stability against sudden
changes in the setpoint, such as when the user enters a
new setpoint value. At the same time, the I-PD
algorithm ensures excellent controllability by performing proportional, integral, and derivative control
actions in response to changes of characteristics in the
controlled process, changes in load, and occurrences of
disturbances. In Cas mode, PV derivative type PID
control algorithm (referred to as the PI-D control
algorithm) is employed in order to obtain better
performance against the changes in the setpoint. The
algorithm is automatically switched by the block
accoridng to the mode. A basic form of each
algorithm is expressed in the equation below.
A4.5Control Output
The final control output value, MV, is computed based
on the change in control output ∆MVn, which is
calculated at each control period in accordance with the
aforementioned algorithm. The PID block in an
ADMAG AE performs the velocity type output action
for the control output.
A4.5.1 Velocity Type Output Action
The PID block determines the value of the new control
output MVn by adding the change in control output
calculated in the current control period, ∆MVn, to the
current read-back value of the MV, MVRB
(BKCAL_IN). This action can be expressed as:
∆MVn'= ∆MVn*(OUT_SCALE.EU100-
OUT_SCALE.EU_0)/(PV_SCALE.EU100PV_SCALE.EU_0)
(Direct Acting is False in CONTROL_OPTS)
OUT=BKCAL_IN-∆MVn'

A4.10 Bumpless Transf er
Prevents a sudden change in the control output OUT at
changes in block mode (MODE_BLK) and at switching of the connection from the control output OUT to
the cascaded secondary function block. The action to

A4.11 Setpoint Limiters
Active setpoint limiters that limit the changes in the SP
value, differ depending on the block mode as follows.
A4.11.1 When PID Block Is in AUTO Mode
When the value of MODE_BLK is Auto, the four types
of limiters are in force: high limit, low limit, rate-ofincrease limit, and rate-of-decrease limit.
Setpoint High/Low Limits
•A value larger than the value of SP_HI_LIM cannot
be set for SP.
•A value smaller than the value of SP_LO_LIM
cannot be set for SP.
Setpoint Rate Limits
The setpoint rate limits are used to restrict the magnitude of changes in the SP value so as to change the SP
value gradually towards a new setpoint.
• An increase of the SP value at each execution period
(period of execution in the Block Header) is limited
to the value of SP_RATE_UP.
•A decrease of the SP value at each execution period
(period of execution in the Block Header) is limited
to the value of SP_RATE_DOWN.
A4.11.2 When PID Block Is in CAS or
RCAS Mode
To change the block mode to LO:
(1) Select Track Enable in CONTROL_OPTS.
(2) Set TRK_IN_D to true.
However, to change the block mode from MAN to LO,
Track in Manual must also be specified in
CONTROL_OPTS.
A4.13 Measured-value T racking
Measured-value tracking, also referred to as SP-PV
tracking, is an action to equalize the setpoint SP to the
measured value PV when the block mode
(MODE_BLK.actual) is MAN in order to prevent a
sudden change in control output from being caused by
a mode change to Auto.
While a cascade primary control block is performing
the automatic or cascade control (in the Auto or Cas
mode), when the mode of its secondary control block is
changed from Cas to Auto, the cascade connection is
opened and the control action of the primary block
stops. The SP of the primary controller can be
equalized to its cascade input signal CAS_IN also in
this case.
The settings for measured-value tracking are made in
the parameter CONTROL_OPTS, as shown in the table
below.
By selecting Obey SP Limits if Cas or RCas in
CONTROL_OPTS (see Section A4.13), the setpoint
high/low limits can be put into force also when the
value of MODE_BLK is Cas or RCas.
A4.12 External-output Trac king
External tracking is an action of outputting the value of
the remote output TRK_VAL set from outside the PID
block, as illustrated in the figure below. External
tracking is performed when the block mode is LO.

Equalizes SP to RCAS_IN when MODE_BLK.target is set to RCas, and to CAS_IN
when MODE_BLK.target is set to Cas
when the actual mode of the block is IMan,
LO, Man or ROut.
Set the PID block to a direct acting
controller.
This enables the external tracking function.
The value in TRK_VAL will replace the
value of OUT if TRK_IN_D becomes true
and the target mode is not Man.
This enables TRK_VAL to replace the
value of OUT when the target mode is Man
and TRK_IN_D is true. The actual mode
will then be LO.
Sets the value of PV in BKCAL_OUT and
RCAS_OUT, instead of the value of SP.
Puts the setpoint high/low limits in force in

Disables the high/low limits for OUT in the
Man mode.

A4.14 Initialization and Manual
Fallback (IMAN)
Initialization and manual fallback denotes a set of
actions in which a PID block changes mode to IMAN
(initialization and manual) and suspends the control
action. Initialization and manual fallback takes place
automatically as a means of abnormality handling
when the following condition is met:
• The quality component of BKCAL_IN.status is Bad.
- OR -
•The quality component of BKCAL_IN.status is
Good (c)
- AND The sub-status component of BKCAL_IN.status is
FSA, LO, NI, or IR.
The user cannot manually change the mode to IMAN.
A mode transition to IMAN occurs only when the
condition above is met.
A4.15 Manual Fallback
Manual fallback denotes an action in which a PID
block changes mode to MAN (manual) and suspends
the control action. Manual fallback takes place
automatically as a means of abnormality handling
when the following condition is met:
•IN.status is Bad except when the control action
bypass is on.
To enable the manual fallback action to take place
when the above condition is met, Target to Manual if
BAD IN must be specified beforehand in
STATUS_OPTS.
The table below shows the options in STATUS_OPTS.

Does not regard IN as being in Bad
status when IN.status is Uncertain (to
prevent mode transitions from being
affected when it is Uncertain).
Automatically changes the value of
MODE_BLK.target to MAN when IN falls
into Bad status.
Automatically changes the value of
MODE_BLK.target to Auto (or to Man
if Auto is not set in Permitted) when
CAS_IN falls into Bad status.
Description
TA0409.EPS
A4.16 Auto Fallback
Auto fallback denotes an action in which a PID block
changes mode from Cas (cascade) to Auto (automatic)
and continues automatic PID control with the user-set
setpoint. Auto fallback takes place automatically when
the following condition is met:
• IN.status (data status of IN) is Bad except when the
control action bypass is on.
To enable the manual fallback action to take place
when the above condition is met:
• Target to next permitted mode if BAD CAS IN must
be previously specified in STATUS_OPTS.
- AND -
•Auto must be previously set in
MODE_BLK.permitted.
A4.17 Mode Shedding upon Com-
puter Failure
When the data status of RCAS_IN or ROUT_IN,
which is the setting received from a computer as the
setpoint SP, falls to Bad while the PID block is
running in the RCas (remote cascade) or ROut (remote
output) mode, the mode shedding occurs in accordance
with the settings in SHED_OPT.
If the RCAS_IN data is not renewed within the time
specified by SHED_RCAS in resource block, the data
status of RCAS_IN falls to Bad.
A4.17.1 SHED_OPT
The SHED_OPT setting stipulates the specifications of
mode shedding as shown below. Only one can be set.

*1 The modes to which a PID block can transfer are
limited to those set in MODE_BLK.permitted, and
the priority levels of modes are as shown below. In
fact, if Normal shed, normal return is set for

MODE_BLK.actual to change to Cas, Auto, or
Man, whichever is set in MODE_BLK.permitted
and has the lowest priority level.

*2 Only when Auto is set as permitted mode.
NOTE: If a control block is connected as a cascade primary block of
the PID block in question, a mode transition of the PID block
to CAS occurs in the following sequence due to initialization
of the cascade connection: RCas or ROut --> Auto --> Cas.
A4.18 Alarms
There are two kinds of alarms generated by a PID
block: block and process alarms.
A4.18.1 Block Alarm (BLOCK_ALM)
The block alarm BLOCK_ALM is generated upon
occurrence of either of the following errors (values set
in BLOCK_ERR) and notifies the content of
BLOCK_ERR.

A4.18.2 Process Alarms
There are six types of process alarms. Only one
process alarm can be generated at the same time, and
the process alarm having the highest priority level from
among those occurring at the same time is generated.
The priority level is set for each process alarm type.

BKCAL_IN
BKCAL_OUT
When configuring a simple PID control loop by
combining an ADMAG AE transmitter with a fieldbus
valve positioner that contains an AO block, follow the
procedure below to make the settings of the corresponding fieldbus function blocks:
1. Connect the AI block and PID block of the
ADMAG AE, and the AO block of the valve
positioner as shown above.
2. Set MODE_BLK.target of the PID block to O/S,
and then set GAIN, RESET, and RATE to appropriate values.
3. Check that the value of MODE_BLK.actual of the
AI block is Auto.
4. Set MODE_BLK.target of the AO block to
CAS|AUTO (meaning "Cas and Auto").
5. Check that the value of BKCAL_IN.status of the
PID block is not Bad.
6. Check that the value of IN.status of the PID block is
not Bad.
7. Check that Auto is set in MODE_BLK.permitted of
the PID block.
When finishing all steps in order, the PID block and
AO block exchange the respective information and
initialize the cascade connection. Consequently, the
value of MODE_BLK.actual of the PID block changes
to Auto and automatic PID control starts.
A link active scheduler (LAS) is a deterministic, centralized bus scheduler that can control communications on an H1
fieldbus segment. There is only one LAS on an H1 fieldbus segment.
An ADMAG AE supports the following LAS functions.
• PN transmission: Identifies a fieldbus device newly connected to the same fieldbus segment. PN is short for Probe
Node.
• PT transmission: Passes a token governing the right to transmit, to a fieldbus device on the same segment. PT is
short for Pass Token.
• CD transmission: Carry out a scheduled transmission to a fieldbus device on the same segment. CD is short for
Compel Data.
•Time synchronization: Periodically transmits the time data to all fieldbus devices on the segment and returns the
time data in response to a request from a device.
• Live list equalization: Sends the live list data to link masters on the same segment.
• LAS transfer: Transfers the right to be the LAS on the segment to another link master.
A5.2Link Master
A link master (LM) is any device containing a link active scheduler. There must be at least one LM on a segment.
When the LAS on a segment has failed, another LM on the same segment starts working as the LAS.

A5.3Transfer of LAS
There are two procedures for an LM to become the LAS:
• If the LM whose value of [V(ST)V(TN)] is the smallest on a segment, with the exception of the current LAS,
judges that there is no LAS on the segment, in such a case as when the segment has started up or when the current
LAS has failed, the LM declares itself as the LAS, then becomes the LAS. (With this procedure, an LM backs up
the LAS as shown in the following figure.)
• The LM whose value of [V(ST)V(TN)] is the smallest on a segment, with the exception of the current LAS,
requests the LAS on the same segment to transfer the right of being the LAS, then becomes the LAS.

(3) PrimaryLinkMasterFlagVariable
Explicitly declares the LAS. Writing “true” (0xFF) to
this parameter in a device causes that device to attempt
to become the LAS. However, a request of writing
“true” to this parameter in a device is rejected if the
value of the same parameter in any other device that
has a smaller node address within the same segment is
true.
(4) LiveListStatusArrayVariable
A 32-byte variable, in which each bit represents the
status of whether a device on the same segment is live
or not. The leading bit corresponds to the device
address 0x00, and final bit to 0xFF. The value of
LiveListStatusArrayVariable in the case where devices
having the addresses 0x10 and 0x15 in the fieldbus
segment is shown below.
An 8(64 byte array variable, in which each set of 2
bytes represents the delegation time (set as an octet
time) assigned to a device. The delegation time
denotes a time period that is given to a device by
means of a PT message sent from the LAS within each
token circulation cycle.
The leading 2 bytes correspond to the device address
0x00, and the final 2 bytes to the device address 0xFF.
Specify the subindex to access this parameter.
(6) BootOperatFunctionalClass
Writing 1 to this parameter in a device and restarting
the device causes the device to start as a basic device.
On the contrary, writing 2 to this parameter and
restarting the device causes the device to start as an
LM.
(7) CurrentLinkSettingRecord and
ConfiguredLinkSettingsRecord
CurrentLinkSettingRecord indicates the bus parameter
settings currently used. ConfiguredLinkSettingsRecord
indicates the bus parameter settings to be used when
the device becomes the LAS. Thus, when a device is
the LAS, its CurrentLinkSettingRecord and
ConfiguredLinkSettingsRecord have the same values.

A5.6FAQs
Q1.When the LAS stops, an ADMAG AE does
not back it up by becoming the LAS. Why?
A1-1. Is that ADMAG AE running as an LM? Check
that the value of BootOperatFunctionalClass
(index 367) is 2 (indicating that it is an LM).
A1-2. Check the values of V(ST) and V(TN) in all
LMs on the segment and confirm that the
following condition is met:
ADMAG AEOther LMs
V(ST)V(TN)<V(ST)V(TN)
Q3.On a segment where an ADMAG AE works
as the LAS, another device cannot be
connected. How come?
A3-1. Check the following bus parameters that
indicate the bus parameter as being the LAS for
the ADMAG AE and the capabilities of being
the LAS for the device that cannot be
connected:
• V(ST), V(MID), V(MRD) of ADMAG AE:
ConfiguredLinkSettingsRecord (index 369)
• V(ST), V(MID), V(MRD) of problematic
device: DlmeBasicInfo
Then, confirm that the following conditions are
met:
ADMAG AEProblematic
Device
V(ST)>V(ST)
V(MID)>V(MID)
V(MRD)>V(MRD)
A3-2. Check the node address of the problematic
device is not included in the V(FUN)+V(NUN)
of the ADMAG AE.
Q4.The segments for a right-most digit on LCD
of ADMAG AE are blinking.
Followings are possible causes; No LAS
existing on the network or no communication
being established between ADMAG AE and
LAS.
Q2.How can I make an ADMAG AE become the
LAS?
A2-1. Check that the version numbers of the active
schedules in the current LAS and the ADMAG
AE are the same by reading:
LinkScheduleListCharacteristicsRecord
(index 374 for an ADMAG AE)
- ActiveScheduleVersion (subindex 3)
A2-2. Make the ADMAG AE declare itself as and
become the LAS by writing:
• 0x00 (false) to
PrimaryLinkMasterFlagVariable in the current
LAS; and
