CASCADE CONTROL SIGNAL DISTRIBUTION BLOCK
Create the cascade control loop in which two secondary control blocks [TIC302]
and [TIC303] are connected in parallel to the primary control block [TIC301] through a
cascade control signal distribution block [FOUT].
Control Action of Cascade Signal Distribution Block (FOUT)
The cascade control signal distribution block (FOUT) distributes a cascade set signal
from the function block with a control function. The cascade control signal distribution
block is used where multiple controller blocks are connected in parallel on the
downstream side of a cascade control loop.
Cascade Control Signal Distribution Block
The FOUT block can distribute a cascade signal to up to 8 blocks. The FOUT block
configures a cascade control loop where multiple controller blocks are connected in
parallel on the downstream side. It is impossible, however, to chain the multiple
controller blocks with terminal connection.
The FOUT block transfers the cascade open status and cramp status of the control
blocks on the downstream side to the control block on the upstream side.
The figure below shows the function block diagram of the Cascade Signal Distributor
Block (FOUT):

The setpoint value (SV) of the Cascade Signal Distributor Block (FOUT) can be used for
data reference but not for data setting.
An application example of the Cascade Signal Distributor Block (FOUT):
The cascade set signal is adjusted to the range of each destination to which it is
distributed.
In the example, assume that FOUT block has an SV range of 0 to 100% and the
downstream controller blocks have PV ranges of 0 to 8000 NM3/H and 0 to 10.00
KG/H. When the upstream controller block’s control output is 50%, the outputs of
FOUT block are 4000M3/H and 5.00 KG/H. The upstream function blocks, which can
be connected to the FOUT block, are to satisfy the following conditions:
Regulatory control blocks that enable cascade connection and provide a control
output (MV). Analog computation blocks that enable cascade connection.
If the FOUT blocks are connected in cascade, up to 6 FOUT blocks can be

connected in series between the most upstream block and the most downstream block.

The selector switch blocks (SW-33, SW-91) provided between the blocks is excluded.
If more than 6 FOUT blocks are connected, the control out (MV) status of the most
upstream block turns to output fail (PTPF).

Procedure:
1. Create function block on [DR0023] as follows:
2. Create control window on [CG0003] by right-clicking on [HIS0164] [WINDOW]

[Create New Window]. Select [Control (8-loop)] for window type and name the window
name to be [CG0003]. Assign the PID and FOUT function blocks in the control window
just like in Exercise 1
Note: The HIS number is subjected to the settings in the VF701 card installed.
3. Operation confirmation by test function.
4. Confirmation procedure.
4.1 Set the block mode of the control blocks [TIC302] and [TIC303] to CAS.
4.2 Set MV of TIC301 to 50%.
4.3 Confirm that the SV of [TIC302] becomes 100.0 DEGC and the SV of
[TIC303] becomes 200.0 DEGC.


EXERCISE 4 RATIO CONTROL LOOP
Create a Flow Ratio Control Loop as shown below. The flow ration F2 to F1 is
kept constant r by setting SV of the control block [FIC202] to the value of r • F1,
multiplying the ration r to the flow rate F1. The ratio r can be changed in the range from
0.00 to 0.50.
Ratio Set Block (RATIO) and Control Operation
The ratio set block outputs the control output (MV), which equals the input signal (PV)
multiplied by a ratio setpoint. Ratio control uses the block to keep the ratio of two control
variables constant.

Ratio Set Block (RATIO)
The function block diagram of the RATIO block is shown below:
The figure below shows an example of using the Ratio Set Block (RATIO):
Ratio Calculation
In the ratio calculation, the process variable (PV) is multiplies by the effective
ration setpoint (Sve) to determine the calculated value (CALC). The
computational expression is as follows:

The effective ratio setpoint (SVe) is the result of the ramp processing for the ratio
setpoint (SV) to achieve the bumpless transfer of the block mode.
While the ratio set block is in an auto operation mode (AUT,CAS or RCAS), the
control output (MV) is the signal after output processing on the computed
output(CALC).
• Ratio Setpoint (SV) Range

The ratio setpoint (SV) range is defined with the [Function Block Detail Builder].
• High limit of SV range : Up to 7 digits or less including the sign and

decimal point.
The default is 4.0.
• Low limit of SV range : Up to 7 digits or less including the sign and
decimal point.
The default is 0.0.
• Ratio Gain (KR)

The ratio gain is defined with the [Function Block Detail Builder].
• Ratio Gain: Up to 7 digits or less including the sign and decimal point.
The default is 1.0.
• Bias Value (BIAS)

Set the bias value.
Set a data value in the same engineering unit as the manipulated output value
(MV). The setting range is from - (MSH - MSL) to (MSH - MSL). The bias value
can be set or changed during the operation with the operation and monitoring
function. The default is the low limit of MV scale (MSL).
• MSH: MV scale high limit

• MSL: MV scale low limit
The expressions to obtain the ratio gain are shown below:
• Example 1
In a flow rate ratio control system with the flow rate F1 ranging from 0 to 100m³/h and
the flow rate F2 ranging from 0 to 30 m³/h, the example shows the plant running with the
ratio between 0.0 and 0.3.

If these conditions are factored into Equation (1), the flow rate F1 is the process variable
(PV), the desired value of F2 is the calculated value (CALC) and the ratio r is the ratio
set point (SV).
Since the desired value of the flow rate F2 is 0 when the flow rate F1 is 0, the bias
(BIAS) in the expression is 0. Then the computational expression is :
If the ratio r is 0.1, the desired value of the flow rate F2 is equal to 100 multipied by 0.1,
or 10 m³/h, when the flow rate F1 is 100m³/h.
By factoring these values into Equation (3):

As the values of a process variable (PV), a computed variable (CALCn) and an effective
ratio setpoint (SVe) are the engineering unit values, if the PV and CALCn have the same
unit and the unit of SVe is 1, the ratio gain (KR) equals to 1.0.
RATIO CONTROL LOOP CREATION
Procedure :
1.Create function block on [DR0024] as follows:
In this exercise, it is necessary to calculate and set the ratio gain (KR) as the
engineering unit of flow rate F1(M³/M) and flow rate F2 (M³/H) are different.
For [FIR201], enter the calculated Ratio Gain (KR) in the [Control Calculation] tab.
If the ratio r is 0.1, the desired value of the flow rate F2 is equal to 10.0 multipied by 0.1,
or 1M³/M, when the flow rate F1 is 10.0M³/M.
CALCn = 60 , PV = 10, SVe = 0.1 (SVe = SV) CALCn = 1M³/M * 60 mins
= 60M³/H
60
KR = = 60
0.1 x 10

2. Create control window on [CG0001]. Assign [FIR201] and [FIC202] on the control
window as the third and fourth instruments.
3. Operation confirmation by test function.

Test the created loop with virtual test.
Wiring data is automatically created when the test function runs. But the
wiring data for FIR201 is not appropriate for the exercise. Delete the FR201
wiring data.
Set Lag of [FIC202] to 5 second.
4. Confirmation procedure.
Set PV of [FIR201] to 5.0 M³/M. (Enter 50% in the data item RAW, as the
data entry in PV is not allowed.)
Transfer the block mode of [FIC202] to CAS and the block mode of [FIR201]
to AUT.
Set SV of [FIR201] to 0.2.
Confirm that the SV of [FIC202] has changed to 60.0 M³/H.
(5.0 M3/M x 0.2 = 1.0 M3/M = 60.0 M3/h)
