Message processing

• Processing of status information, also with time-stamping

• Evaluation of acquisition states

Measured-value processing

• Conversion of raw data

• Checking plausibility of measured values

• Adaptation to transmitter characteristics via linear or polygonal scaling

• Checking for limit-value violations and unacceptable change rates

• Automatic generation of replacement values

• Evaluation of acquisition status

Count-value processing

• Conversion of raw values

• Cyclic processing as absolute or differential value

• Comparison of maximum and minimum number of pulses per cycle

Event processing

• Constant or variable limit values (hysteresis possible)

• Summing of the ON/OFF cycles and the duration of all equipment ON states for monitoring purposes

• Saving of all events in cyclic buffers, the size of which can be configured

• Processing of alarms and alarm lists

• Provision of the data requested by the MMI

• Transfer of data to external programs (e.g. mimic panel control)

Command processing

• Consideration of an enable condition for each command

• Parameterization of command monitoring time

• Output of setpoints with scaling

• Commands are not output when processing has been disabled, or if there is a remote fault, or if local/remote switch has been set accordingly.

Link processing

• Processing link lists

• Consideration of enable PVs

• Logic functions

• Arithmetic operations, e.g. exponent, logarithm, trigonometric and hyperbolic functions

Replacement value processing

• Provision of replacement values for PVs which are at fault or have been disabled by the operator

• Replacement values can be constants or the contents of other PVs

Key switch processing

• With the help of key switches, privilege levels can be defined for the various areas of operation (e.g. control, system changes).

Archive processing

• Archiving of values with status and time

• Archive periods, time-grid cycles, compression levels can be parametrized

• Archiving times (high-tariff/lowtariff) can be controlled

• Mean, minimum or maximum values and summation algorithms for grid archives

• Grid archives with time grid, e.g. in minute/hour/day/month cycles

• Dynamic archives for rare events or for temporarily high data rates

• Correction possibility with labeling

• Automatic post-compression in the compression levels after manual correction

• Protection functions: online reorganization, long-term archiving on removable data media

System message processing

• Communication faults between process interface and sub-stations

•Failure of a telecontrol line

•Failure of a workstation computer
