Loop Break is an additional safety feature intended to monitor the rate of change of the
process value, while approaching the SP1. It is strictly intended as an additional warning
system, therefore its use is entirely optional. An active Loop Break will cause the Process
Value digits to blink in a rotating pattern. If the process value reaches the set point the
blinking will stop and
B.TIM
is completed successfully, otherwise
BR.AL
Break Alarm
warning will flash, and Output 1 will be turned off.

Loop Break Time Value
allows the user to determine the time interval in MM:SS (from
zero to 99 minutes and 59 seconds) that the Process Value changes at least 10 counts
or if the Input Type is either RTD or Thermocouple, the value changes 4° Fahrenheit or
2° Celsius. At the specified time interval, if the process value change is less than the
stated rate, flashing
B.TIM
will be displayed, the output 1 will be de-energized, and
Alarm 1 energized. Loop break time will be disabled when the Process Value (PV) enters
the control band.
It is required
