How to switch over MMCX objects modes in Advant system

Hi I want to switchover the mode states(CENTRAL and SEQUENCE modes ) of MMCX objects like MOTCON & VALVECON from external inputs ,not from the faceplate. In PC Element & database i have checked, didnt found any specified pins for the changeover which can accept the external inputs.
Pins might be hidden. Please share the procedure anybody how to implement it.

regards,
Roman Regins

Hi,
This can only be done by short forcing to MORD.

Insert MUX-N PC element after MOTCON / VALVECON . Disconnect MORD from MOTCON, VALVECON PC element.
Connect RMORD output terminal of MOTCON , VALVECON to MUX-N:IA4 according attached picture.
Output of MUX-N must be connected to MMCX DB element MORD terminal.

Hi Kamil,

I have an idea to implement: when operator calls for the faceplate, the VALVECON will release the force and operated depending upon operator.
Only when the faceplace is closed (by operator or Timeout), D=1056 will be forced to object for M-S mode.
But the VALVECON object does not have SELECTED pin for my purpose.
Do you have any hint for me?
Alternatives, I intend to use SEQ output pin of PC element with a Timer-Off block as an alternatives.

BTW, please help. What is difference between "D=" and "MD=" before a forcing value?

Hi Vu,
I have checked in Online right now, you can read SELECTED of VALVECON by following syntax: =MMC_X.yourValve:10 .
I can send you list of hidden DB terminals if you give me email.
Regarding MD=, it works same like D= but MD= can be connected by other input terminals. In other words MD is multiconstant. An advantage is once you modify MD value it applies to all other inputs connected to MD.
Remember also that data memory is limited for each PC program. Therefore it may happen that PC program that contains hundreds of D=0 will not fit to limited memory space. Workaround is to use several MD=0 and to connect other inputs to MD. Number of connections to MD is also limited. I don't remember exact number , is about 30-40 connections max.
