Information
16 BLOCK_OBJECT This object contains the characteristics of the
blocks.
17 ST_REV The modification of at least one static
parameter in a block has to be incremented
by the according ST_REV at least by one.
18 TAG_DESC Every block can be assigned a textual TAG
description. The TAG_DESC must be
unambiguous and unique in the fieldbus
system.
19 STRATEGY Grouping of Function Block. The STRATEGY
field can be used to group blocks.
20 ALERT_KEY This parameter contains the identification
number of the plant unit. It helps to
identify the location (plant unit) of an event.
21 TARGET_MODE The TARGET_MODE parameter contains
desired mode normally set by a control

the permitted and normal mode of the block.
23 ALARM_SUM This parameter contains the current states of
the block alarms.
