Example 4.1.2. Enter Values for the Rule Definition Arrays

The factory's Tracker engineers:

  1. Stop the project; does a configuration update and re-starts the project.

  2. Open the Point Control Panel.

  3.  Add the configuration array points for the Eliminate Sources Based on Rule function block.

  4. For each point:

  1. Double-click the point to open its Point Control Panel Point Properties dialog box.

  2. Select the Array tab.

  1. Apply values to each array element as follows

Result: The initial values (Element 0) display in the Point Control Panel list.

The configuration for Eliminate Sources Based on Rule evaluation is almost ready for runtime. RSA will enter the count values during runtime.

Note: The weight that will be assigned to failures still needs to be entered in the Set Block Weights function block.
