FunctionProcess value
alarm
Four process value alarms (HH, H, LL, L), hysteresis, and ON/OFF-delay timer (0 to 60 s) can be set.
Rate-of-change
calculation
Calculates the amount of change per process value comparison time interval (Either 1 to 16 s or the conversion period can be set.)
Rate-of-change
alarm
Two rate-of-change alarms (H, L), hysteresis, and ON/OFF-delay timer (0 to 60 s) can be set (shared with process value alarm).
Process value
averaging
(input filter)
Calculates the moving average for the specified number of past process values (1 to 128), and stores that value in the CIO Area as the process value.
Square root
extraction
When the process value scaling maximum value is A and the minimum value is B:

Dropout: Output approx. 7% maximum linear (output = input) characteristics
Note 1.
The square root function is enabled for DC inputs only. It is not performed for temperature inputs.
Note 2.
The square root function is enabled only when the maximum scaling value is greater than the minimum value. It is not performed when the minimum value is greater.

When performing square root calculation, set the maximum and minimum scaling values to the scaling values following square root extraction of the flowrate or other input value.
Adjustment
period

When zero/span adjustment is executed, the date is internally recorded at the Unit.
When the preset zero/span adjustment period and the notice of days remaining set in the Expansion Setting Area have elapsed, this function turns ON a warning flag to give notice that it is time for readjustment.
Peak and bottom
detection
Detects the maximum (peak) and minimum (bottom) process values, from when the Hold Start Bit (output) allocated to the Expansion Control/Monitor Area turns ON until it turns OFF. These values are stored as the peak and bottom values in the Expansion Control/Monitor Area.
Top and valley
