Name	Description
MLGearInit	Initializes a Gear Pipe Block with user-defined settings and for use in a PLC program.
MLGearReadOffset	Returns the Offset value of a selected Gear Block from the Pipe Network.
MLGearReadOffSlp	Returns the Offset Slope value of a selected Gear Block from the Pipe Network.
MLGearReadRatio	Returns the Ratio value of a selected Gear Block from the Pipe Network.
MLGearReadRatSlp	Returns the Ratio Slope value of a selected Gear Block from the Pipe Network.
MLGearWriteOff	Sets the Offset value of a selected Gear Pipe Block.
MLGearWriteOSlp	Sets the Offset Slope value of a selected Gear Pipe Block.
MLGearWriteRatio	Sets the Ratio value of a selected Gear Pipe Block.
MLGearWriteRatSlp	Sets the Ratio Slope value of a selected Gear Pipe Block.

Examples of Gear Functions

The output value starts with offset = 0 and gain = 1 (blue line)

Call the MLGearWriteOff function to modify the Offset.

This is where Offset_Slope is set with the MLGearWriteOSlp function.

After setting the Offset (Q=TRUE in the previous figure), call the MLGearWriteRatio function to modify the gear Ratio.

This is where Gain_Slope is set with the MLGearWriteRatSlp function.

The output value is adapted with the gear offset and ratio (blue line).
