Yes, this functionality is in the ROUT as REVOPT. Not long ago I was staring at the ATC parameter wondering why my air to close valve was acting in reverse until I noticed the IOMOPT = 0, which led me to the ROUT. Setting the REVOPT=1 and leaving ATC=0 did the trick. mk On Wed, Dec 11, 2013 at 6:53 AM, Quay B Finefrock <qbfinefrock@xxxxxxxxx>wrote: > With respect to the ATC parameter, I believe that functionality is already > in the ROUT function block as the REVOPT parameter. > > Regards, > > Quay > > -----Original Message----- > From: foxboro-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:foxboro-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] > On > Behalf Of Kinsinger, Matthew R > Sent: Friday, October 25, 2013 7:42 PM > To: foxboro@xxxxxxxxxxxxx > Subject: Re: [foxboro] Obsolescence of AIN/AOUT function blocks in I/A 8.8 > > Even at V8.8, I have found MANY instances where I need AOUTs still for sure > with ROUTs (ATC and BIAS are important differences).
