Inputs

4min

The multiple Input processors help you calculate the statistical properties of the data from the PLC machines.

Inputs Overview

Use one of the following processors for your inputs:

  • Inputs Average gives you the average of the inputs values in the Flow.
  • Inputs Maximum gives you the maximum value between the inputs in the Flow.
  • Inputs Minimum gives you the minimum value between the inputs in the Flow.
  • Inputs Sum adds all the inputs values in the Flow.

The following information describes these processors:

  • For Field Name, you can enter the field name for which you want to apply the function. The field name must be available in all the inputs. For example, value or downtime.
  • For Processing Type, you can select from floatsigned (signed integer) or unsigned (unsigned integer).
  • Connect the inputs to the function using the values connection. The values connection acts as a time synchronizer.
  • Connect the function to the output using the events connection.

Field Name

Usually left unchanged. Use it if incoming is message type, and/or non-default "value" field name.

Pass Through Value

The Pass Through Value parameter enables you to specify how anomalous data should be handled.
