8011 SupplementVEGAPULS 69 • Foundation Fieldbus47251-EN-160815Function block Signal CharacterizerThe function block "Signal Characterizer" has two channels the outputs of which are not in linearrelation with the respective input. The non-linear relation is defined by a look-up table with individu-ally selectable x/y-pairs. The respective input signal is imaged on the corresponding output, hencethis function block can be used in a control loop or signal path. Optionally the function axis can beexchanged in channel 2 so that the block can be also used in a reverse control loop.Fig. 59: Schematic presentation function block Signal CharacterizerFunction block IntegratorThe function block "Integrator" integrates a continuous input signal over the time and sums theresults of an impulse input block. It is used as a totalizer up to a reset or as a subtotalizer up to areference point at which the integrated and accumulated value is compared with the default values.When these default values are reached, digital output signals will be outputted. The integration func-tion is carried out upwardly starting with zero and downwards with a default value. Two flow valuesare also available so that the net flow volume can be calculated and integrated. This can be used forcalculation of volume and mass changes in the vessel or for optimisation of flow controls.Fig. 60: Schematic presentation function block IntegratorFunction block Input SelectorThe function block "Input Selector" offers selection possibilities for up to four inputs and generates
