Applications

An Application channel applies predefined application logic to one or more input values. Input values can come from hardwired inputs, comms inputs, the outputs of other channels, or be manually entered. Each Application channel uses a specific application type such as Calibration Due, F-Value or Group MKT that defines how the channel processes its inputs.

Within EPM Data Management up to 128 application channels can be configured.

The following application types are available:

Note - You can only access this function if you have the Can access Applications permission. To add, update or delete an Application channel, you must also have the Can configure permission. If you need to access these functions and do not have permission, please contact your system administrator.
Note - By default, channels/functions do not generate .uhh history records. Process values are written to .uhh only when the channel/function is included in a Group. Channel configuration and any non-volatile (NVOL) data are stored in the device’s on-board memory and persist across power cycles, independently of UHH history data.
