    (* Internal Function Blocks *)

    fbPID : FB_PIDController;        (* Process control *)
    fbDiag : FB_Diagnostics;         (* Alarm management in Mitsubishi uses bit devices (M or B) for alarm active flags with corresponding data registers storing timestamps, values, and alarm details. Alarm structure allocates device ranges: M1000-M1999 for alarm active flags (1000 unique alarms), D5000-D5999 storing alarm timestamps or associated values. Alarm detection logic: [LD Tank_Level > High_Limit] [AND NOT previous alarm state M1000] [OUT M1000] [MOV current time D5000] capturing alarm activation moment. Alarm acknowledgment requires operator action via HMI: GOT screen button writes to acknowledgment bit (M2000) which resets alarm flag when condition clears [LD M1000] [AND alarm cleared] [AND M2000 acknowledged] [RST M1000] [RST M2000]. Priority classification uses different device ranges or separate bits: Critical alarms M1000-M1099, Warnings M1100-M1199, Information M1200-M1299 with severity-specific visual/audible HMI indicators. Alarm logging to SD card uses CSV file write instructions (SDWR) recording alarm number, timestamp, activation/deactivation, and associated process values for historical analysis and regulatory compliance. First-out alarm detection latches initial alarm in cascade of related faults: bearing temperature alarm (M1050) latches before motor overload (M1051) before production stopped (M1052) with reset sequence clearing in reverse order after root cause addressed. Integration with GOT HMI alarm viewer displays active alarms in sortable/filterable list with acknowledgment tracking, alarm help text, and corrective action guidance displayed to operators. Alarm rate limiting prevents flooding when single fault triggers hundreds of consequential alarms: introduce 5-second delays before enabling secondary alarms allowing operators to focus on root cause. Email notification for critical alarms uses Ethernet communication function blocks sending SMTP messages to distribution lists with alarm details formatted in message body. Statistical alarm analysis counts alarm frequencies storing totals in file registers: most frequent alarm identification guides preventive maintenance priorities addressing chronic equipment issues before failures occur. *)

(* Diagnostics - High-speed data logging in Mitsubishi uses file registers (R devices) organized as circular buffers with automatic SD card archiving for long-term storage. Create logging structure: file registers R0-R9999 storing 10,000 samples with each sample containing timestamp (R[base]), values (R[base+1] to R[base+10]), status (R[base+11]). Write pointer (D500) increments with each log entry: [MOV current time R[(D500*12)]] [MOV process values R[(D500*12)+1]] [INC D500] with modulo operation wrapping pointer [LD> D500 K9999] [MOV K0 D500]. Triggered logging initiates capture on alarm conditions preserving pre-trigger buffer: maintain continuous logging but flag trigger index enabling post-event retrieval of 100 samples before alarm and 500 samples after providing failure context. CSV file export uses SD card write instructions formatting file register data into comma-delimited text files readable by Excel or data analysis software: SDWR instruction writes R0-R9999 to SD:\LOG\data.csv with timestamp filename generation creating unique files daily. Sampling rates configurable from 10ms (fixed cycle interrupt program) to several minutes (main program logic) depending on process dynamics and storage capacity requirements. Data compression implements deadband filtering: log sample only when value changes exceed threshold reducing storage requirements for slowly-changing process variables like tank levels or temperatures. Integration with SCADA/historian systems uses SLMP protocol transferring logged data via Ethernet to centralized databases with automatic retry logic handling network interruptions preventing data loss. Batch correlation links production data to specific product lots: each batch start creates new log file section with batch ID header enabling traceability from raw materials through finished goods. Energy logging totalizes consumption from power meters connected via CC-Link or Modbus calculating specific energy per produced unit, identifying efficiency improvements and cost allocation by product line. Safety event logging captures all safety input states, bypass activations, and emergency stop events with tamper-proof timestamps meeting regulatory documentation requirements for incident investigations and compliance audits. *)
