Re: [foxboro] TOD alarming

Are you talking about something like an alarm clock, where an alarm is
generated when the system clock equals some operator entered day/time value?
If so, while I have not done this, just off the top of my head, it would
seem that at the least an independent sequence block could be used.  The
operator entered values could be tied to block inputs and the block could
compare the input values to the station block date/time values and set a
boolean output when they are equal. The output could be tied to a CIN to
generate the alarm.  I'm sure it could be done with a CALC block also and
possibly even a series REALM blocks and a LOGIC block.

I'd like to alarm on an operator entered Time Of Day entry.  The time
could be the current day or sometime during the next day.  Has anyone
developed such logic?
