Enhanced Control Processor Software to Support LOOPID

Foxboro DCS Version 6.2 or higher is required.

The compound and block parameter LOOPID is used by the batch system to store the batch ID string name (32 characters maximum). If the LOOPID of the compound is not blank and the LOOPID of the block is blank, alarms generated by the block contain the LOOPID information stored in the LOOPID parameter of the compound. If the LOOPID of the block parameter is not blank, the alarm generated from the block contains LOOPID data as stored in the block.

When a string name is stored in the LOOPID parameter through the ICC, the string name is stored as-is. LOOPID data, when set through the Foxboro DCS Object Manager function, is padded with trailing blanks (32 characters maximum).
