Function A function calculates a result according to the current value of its inputs. A function has no internal data and is not linked to declared instances. - Initializes a phaser Pipe Block.

Inputs

Input	Data Type	Range	Unit	Default	Description
BlockID	DINT	-2147483648 to 2147483647	N/A	No default	ID name of a phaser function block in the Pipe Network.
ModuloPosition	LREAL	No range	User units	360.0	Rollover position of the phaser block.
Phase	LREAL	No range	N/A	0.0	Amount of phase adjustment.
UseUserSlope	BOOL	0, 1	N/A	Max Slope	Determines if the Max Slope or user-defined slope is used.
PhaseSlope	LREAL	No range	User unit/sec	0.0	User-defined slope for making the phase adjustment.
StandbyValue	LREAL	No range	N/A	0.0	This is the output from the Phaser Block, when the pipe is active, until the MLPhaWritePhase function is executed.

Outputs

BOOL

N/A

Returns TRUE if the function or function block is successfully executing.

See Pipe Network - General Rules for more information.

Remarks

Returns TRUE if the function succeeded.
This function block is automatically called by the Pipe Network(MLPN_CREATE_OBJECTS) if a Phaser block is added to the Pipe Network.
- User-defined settings are entered in the Pipe Blocks Properties screen.
The Phaser Pipe Block is assigned a Name, OUTPUT_PERIOD, PHASE, PHASE_SLOPE_TYPE, and STANDBY_VALUE.

//Initialize  a Phaser  Pipe Block named “PhaseAdjust” to a Modulo of 720, phase offset value of 30, use the Max Slope
MLPhaInit( PipeNetwork.PhaseAdjust , 720, 30, false, 30 , 10 );
