SA_ModeStatusIndicator is a support symbol intended to be integrated with other symbols as an equipment control mode indicator. The symbol can show up to four equipment control modes using single character to identify how a piece of equipment is being controlled.

  • A Automatic

  • C Cascade

  • M Manual

  • Normal, which can consist of one or more control modes (A, M, or C) and does not show a character.

The SA_ModeStatusIndicator symbol is intended for a single piece of equipment. Some symbols can represent multiple pieces of equipment using Equipment Status Indicators. The SA_5EquipmentMode symbol can show a single equipment control mode indicator that is assigned to a specific piece of equipment within a symbol that represents multiple pieces of equipment.
