5.1.2.1 MIN MAX AVG RESET
Each channel calculates the MINimum, MAXimum and AVeraGe values of the input value. In addition
calculated channels can use a combination of maximums, minimums and averages. How and when these
values are reset can become quite complex. Individual channel resets of these values
are set using the Reset setup dialog by pressing the button shown right. This will
bring up the Min Max Avg Reset dialog box. This enables the Min, Max or Avg values
to be reset periodically, upon an external event or upon an alarm event.
Auto Reset Enable: If this box is unchecked the
Min, Max, Avg will calculate continuously unless
External Reset Enable is checked. If the Auto
Reset Enable box is checked then the values will
reset at the Reset Interval.
Ext. Reset Enable: This is the External Reset
enable. If this box is checked the max, min, avg
values will be reset by an external event via the
digital inputs
Note: an optional digital I/O card
must be present in the system AND the
designated input must be input is
enabled . The
digital input needs to be programmed as a
MinMaxAvg type. Select the External input to use
from the drop down menu.
Reset Intrvl: This is the Reset Interval. This is the
time in days, hours, minutes and seconds between timer resets when Auto Reset is checked. In the
example the min, max or avg will be reset every 1 hour.
Reset Sync: If the Sync Enabled checkbox the max, min or avg will reset the first time it reaches the
set time. This allows the user to synchronize the reset to a known time. This also allows several channels
to be synchronized together if the Reset Sync time is set to the same for all. This time is ignored if the
enable box is not checked.
Reset Print: When this box is checked the max, min avg reset information will be appended to the
alarm/event log each time the values reset.
Power Up Reset: When this box is checked the value (max, min or avg) will be reset on power up,
otherwise it will continue from the last value saved before power down.
Monthly Reset: When this box is checked the value (max, min or avg) will be reset at the start of each
new month
Reset on Alarm – If Alm Reset Enable is checked the Min, Max,
Avg values will be reset by the Alarm condition selected. In this
case when Channel 1 Alarm 1 is active.
