setpoint programming in ControlLogix

[danw]

How does ControlLogix work for "setpoint programming", as is typically done in reactor batch processing, where the temperature/pressures are ramped at predetermined rates with profiles that can consist of 8 - 12 segments of ramps and soaks?

Is setpoint programming the sort of thing that already exists in some FB form, or would one have to custom program such a function?

The distributor's CLX guy is on vacation . . . .

Checkout the RMPS instruction. It is meets the exact requirement you have in mind.

Available in Function Block only.

Its also available in ST.

However, it was unsuitable for the last application I did that needed a setpoint profile, so I wrote my own.
