    摘要: In a distributed process-control system, program-controlled apparatus is provided for permitting an operator to control the mode of a Sequential Function Chart (SFC) to place the Chart in any of five different modes as a convenience in monitoring, editing and/or changing the SFC program. These modes are: OFF mode, for temporarily disabling operation of the SFC Chart, an AUTO mode which allows the SFC program and Chart to run as configured, a HOLD mode which freezes the chart in its current state, a MANUAL mode enabling the operator to force the Chart to an operator-selected step while the output of the current step is maintained active, and a TRACE mode enabling the operator to view the steps in the Chart sequentially, and to force the steps without executing them.

    摘要: Imbalances between currents to and from a remote point are detected by passing the outgoing currents and the return current through different, oppositely-oriented coils on a saturable core, and an excitation current is applied to another coil in the same core sufficient to drive the core into saturation in at least one direction. When the outgoing and return currents are the same, the excitation produces successive voltage pulses of the same durations, as measured by an up-down counter; if an imbalance is present, the remainder in the up-down counter shows this. To detect excessively high imbalances, which might place the core always in saturation, another counter preferably senses the sum of the widths of successive pulses, and indicates an imbalance if this sum falls below a preselected threshold.
