Output module field descriptions

Use the following four fields to specify Output Modules.

 

Field

Description

1

Single

The Single output module that will be executed when a single (one) decision survives the routing logic and after the decision output logic is executed, i.e. control site works properly.

 

 

Guidelines

This module is most commonly used to run output logic that is common for all successfully executed decision.

2

Multiple

The Multiple output module that will be executed when multiple (two or more) decisions survive the routing logic.

 

 

Guidelines

This module is used to fix the problem of having multiple decisions left and can be used to generate an alarm for user intervention.

Note: The control site cycle ends after the Multiple Output module is run. (Use the RCO Execution Sequence as a guide.)

3

None

The None output module that will be executed when there are no (zero) decisions that survive the routing logic.

 

 

Guidelines

This module can be used to generate an alarm for user intervention, or to set a done point that will in turn prepare the site to re-trigger the control site.

Note: The control site cycle ends after the None Output module is run. (Use the RCO Execution Sequence as a guide.)

4

Runtime Error

The Runtime Error output module that will be executed when routing logic fails during the decision-making cycle.

 

 

Guidelines

This module can be used to generate an alarm to initiate user intervention, or to set a done point that will in turn prepare the site to re-trigger the control site.
