Variable signaling function

Definition: Attribute "traceable"
A parameter whose value can be acquired using the trace function of STARTER or SCOUT,
is allocated the "traceable" attribute. These parameters can be called in STARTER or
SCOUT in the "Device trace" function. The attribute itself is not visible.
Variable signaling function for monitoring
Using the "Variable signaling" function, BICO interconnections and parameters that have the
attribute "traceable" can be monitored.
Note
The variable signaling function works with an accuracy of 8 ms (also to be taken into account
for pickup and dropout delay).
Enter the desired data source into parameter p3291 of the drive object expert list. In
parameter p3295 define a threshold value for the data source. The hysteresis of the
threshold value can be set with p3296. If the threshold value is violated, then an output
signal is generated from r3294.
A pickup delay can be set with p3297 and a dropout delay with p3298 for the output signal
r3294.
The setting of a hysteresis results in a tolerance band around the threshold value. If the
upper band limit is exceeded, the output signal r3294 is set to "1", if it drops below the lower
band limit the output signal is set to "0"
You set the sampling time of the variable signaling function in p3299.
After completing the configuration, activate the variable signaling function with p3290.0 = 1.
