SA_ValveOutput is a support symbol intended to be integrated with valve symbols as an output control meter. The symbol includes a Discrete Wizard option to configure the symbol as a discrete or variable valve.

ValveOutput1

When configured as an analog valve, the symbol includes Wizard options to show commanded values and numerical percentages on the output control meter. The symbol also provides custom properties to set the physical appearance of the head and output bar symbol components using ArchestrA Element Styles.

Symbol exceptions

The SA_ValveOutput symbol has no known exceptions or limitations.

Symbol components

The symbol components shown by the SA_ValveOutput symbol are largely determined by the Discrete Wizard option. A discrete valve output control meter can determine closed/open actuator positions and show the appropriate state of the valve. An analog valve output control meter includes additional symbol components for output measured values, commanded output, a setpoint, and numerical output percentages.

Wizard options

The symbol includes four Wizard options

Orientation Wizard option - Horizontal / Vertical

Options to orient the valve output control meter horizontally or vertically.

Discrete Wizard option

Options to configure a valve output control meter for a discrete or analog valve.

CommandedValue Wizard option

Options to include commanded values for an analog valve output control meter.

NumericalDisplay Wizard option

Options to show a numerical percentage beneath an analog valve output control meter bar.

Custom properties

The symbol includes 14 custom properties.

ValveDeadband custom property

Fixed deadband around a measured value that indicates a valve is opening or closing when it is exceeded.

ValveElementStyleHead custom property

Name of the ArchestrA element style that configures the appearance of a head on a valve symbol.

ValveElementStyleOutputBar custom property

Name of the ArchestrA element style that configures the appearance of a output control meter for a valve symbol.

ValveLimitSwitchClose custom property

Boolean value that indicates if a valve actuator has reached the fully closed position.

ValveLimitSwitchOpen custom property

Boolean value that indicates if a valve actuator has reached the fully open position.

ValvePV custom property

Measured value from a valve output control meter.

ValvePVCommanded custom property

Commanded value percentage of a valve output control meter.

ValvePVCommandedVisible custom property

ValvePVMax custom property

Maximum possible measured value of a valve output control meter.

ValvePVMin custom property

Minimum possible measured value of a valve output control meter.

ValvePVVisible custom property

Boolean value to show or hide a measured value of a valve output control meter.

ValveSP custom property

Setpoint value assigned to a valve output control meter.

ValveSPVisible custom property

Boolean value to show or hide the setpoint line on a valve output control meter.

ValveState custom property

String value that indicates the current state of a valve.
