Appendix C. FOUNDATION fieldbus Block Information
C.5 MULTIPLE ANALOG OUTPUT BLOCK
The Multiple Analog Output Block (MAO_1400 to MAO_1700) accepts output
values from field devices and assigns them to specified I/O channels in order
to make them available for the display.

Output Block
Index
Number Parameter Description
1 ST_REV The revision level of the static data associated
with the function block. The revision value
increments each time a static parameter value in
the block is changed.
2 TAG_DESC The user description of the intended application
of the block.
3 STRATEGY The strategy field can be used to identify
grouping of blocks. This data is not checked or
processed by the block.
4 ALERT_KEY The identification number of the plant unit. This
information may be used in the host for sorting
alarms, etc.
5 MODE_BLK The actual, target, permitted, and normal modes
of the block.
Target: The mode to “go to”
Actual: The mode the “block is currently in”
Permitted: Allowed modes that target may take
on
Normal: Most common mode for target
6 BLOCK_ERR This parameter reflects the error status
associated with the hardware or software
components associated with a block. It is a bit
string, so that multiple errors may be shown.
7 CHANNEL Defines the output that drives the field device.
8 IN_1 Numbered input parameter for multiple output
function blocks
9 IN_2 Numbered input parameter for multiple output
function blocks
10 IN_3 Numbered input parameter for multiple output
function blocks
11 IN_4 Numbered input parameter for multiple output
function blocks
12 IN_5 Numbered input parameter for multiple output
function blocks
13 IN_6 Numbered input parameter for multiple output
function blocks
14 IN_7 Numbered input parameter for multiple output
function blocks
15 IN_8 Numbered input parameter for multiple output
function blocks
16 MO_OPTS Options that the user may select to alter multiple
output block processing. In case a Fault State
option is set, the 2230 will send a Field
Diagnostic alert.
17 FSTATE_TIME
18 FSTATE_VAL1 The preset analog value to use when failure
occurs in IN_1. Ignored if the “Fault state to value
1” in the MO_OPTS parameter is false.
