Re: [foxboro] Determining Forces in PLB

        Good information Gabriel.  I hadn't thought to look into the
.BLKSTA parameter of a PLB but after reading your post I went to look at
Foxboro's PLB block documentation to see if there were any other
interesting bits of information available and didn't find anything else
useful to me at this time.  .BLKSTA.B13 would be a quick way to identify
on a sitewide basis, all PLB blocks that are in a TEST mode, (have
forced contacts).  That is a helpful hint.
Thanks,

HI, We use PLBCMPND:PLBBLOCK.BLKSTA.B13 to indicate that a block has had
a=20
force implemented (indicates block in TEST mode), doesent tell you which

exact flag, but it may help you to narrow your searches. We tie the
.B13s=20
into a BLNALM block to send messages to a printer when a block gets=20
forced/unforced.

Gabriel.

[foxboro] Determining Forces in PLB






Hi List,

Is there a way to get a force list for a PLB without having to look=20
at each line and visually determine if anything is forced?  We'd like=20
to be able to generate a report of PLB forces (the actual item that=20
is forced, and if it is forced high or low), but I have no idea how=20
you would do that.

Thanks,
David
