NOTE
To make changes to the AI block, the BLOCK_MODE (TARGET) must be set to OOS (out of
service). Once the changes are made, return the BLOCK_MODE TARGET to AUTO.
Multiple Analog Input (MAI) Function Block
The MAI block processes up to eight field device measurements and makes the output
available to other function blocks. The output value of the MAI block is in engineering units
and contains a status indicating the quality of the measurements. Use the Channel number
to define the variables that the MAI block processes. At a minimum, verify the parameters of
the MAI block in Table 3.
NOTE
To make changes to the MAI block, the BLOCK_MODE (TARGET) must be set to OOS (out
of service). Once the changes are made, return the BLOCK_MODE TARGET to AUTO.
