With this configuration, when the current count is 451, the equation and result become:
Example 2
To obtain a result expressed to the tenths digit:
A particular variable in the smart device can range from 0.0 to 100.0, with the value rounded to
the nearest tenth; for example, 54.3 is a possible value. This value is to be conditioned, stored in,
and read from the smart device. The current value read is to be sent to channel 36 in the analog
channel table of the smart device interface. To use this value as the input for a continuous loop
in the Advant OCS System, you can proceed as follows when configuring the smart device, and
the analog input FCM for the related loop.
In the smart device—Multiply the variable by 10 and store it, as an integer variable that has a
range of 0 to 1000, in a portion of smart device memory from which it will be read when
appropriate command(s) are received during scans by the interface.
In the Advant OCS System—Use the SMARTNET templet, as described in Section 3.3.5.4,
SMARTNET Object, to arrange for the conditioned value in the smart device to be sent to a
channel (number 36 in this example) in the analog channel table of the interface.
For the Related Loop in the Advant OCS Data Base—Include the following entries to the
Analog Input Templet to achieve an analog input FCM result equal to the original value of the
variable in the smart device:
With this configuration, if the current value is 54.3, and the conditioned value, 543, is sent from
the smart device to channel 36, the equation and result become:
