We can simplify Doug's earlier equation. From B0193AX: "In the Interlock mode, unlinked MANDSR and AUTDSR parameters are secured by the block and track the INTDSR parameter." So, the MANDSR will be OFF whether the operator sets it that way or INTLCK is TRUE. And, we only want to track a mismatch if we have removed permission for the pump to run (GDEV is OFF). Connect IGNLM2 (the RUN feedback) to the MANDSR bit. When the block is turned OFF--either manually or via interlock--the feedback will be monitored. When the block is turned ON--permission is granted to run (or not to run) the pump--the feedback is ignored. I wish I would have thought of this a long time ago...
