Configuring an O2 Correction Application Channel

From the left-hand side of the Applications screen, select Add Application :

If you are not already in Configuration lock, the Configuration lock screen displays:

Enter a reason if required and then select Confirm . The system configuration is now locked pending the submission of your update and the Configuration Locked icon displays on the status bar.

The Add Channel screen displays, from Type, select O2 Correction from the available list and select Add :

From the left-hand side of the Applications screen, select the O2 Correction Application channel required. The Application Configuration section displays on the right-hand side:

Tip - Select Information to display on-screen tooltips.

If you are not already in Configuration lock, the Configuration lock screen displays:

Enter a reason if required and then select Confirm . The system configuration is now locked pending the submission of your update and the Configuration Locked icon displays on the status bar.

Complete the configuration as required:

• Type - Defaults to O2 Correction.

• Descriptor - Defaults to Application <n> where n is the next number in sequence from the previous Application channel. We recommend that you enter a unique name for the channel (max 40 characters), for example, “Oxygen Correction” or “O2 Normalization”.

  Note - This is not case sensitive, for example, 'AbC' is regarded as identical to 'abc '.

• Application Configuration - Select Expand if it does not expand automatically: 

  • Measured Oxygen - Value of measured oxygen molecules, measured in parts-per-million (ppm).

    Select a dynamic data source, for example, an I/O channel or Maths channel from the available list or enter a numeric constant, see Linking a Channel as an Input for details.

  • Measured Gas - Value of measured gas molecules, measured in parts-per-million (ppm).

    Select a dynamic data source, for example, an I/O channel or Maths channel from the available list or enter a numeric constant, see Linking a Channel as an Input for details.

  • Reference Oxygen - Concentration of oxygen in emitted gas, referenced as a percentage.

From the left-hand side of the Applications screen, select the O2 Correction Application channel required. The Chart and presentation settings section displays on the right-hand side:

Tip - Select Information to display on-screen tooltips.

If you are not already in Configuration lock, the Configuration lock screen displays:

Enter a reason if required and then select Confirm . The system configuration is now locked pending the submission of your update and the Configuration Locked icon displays on the status bar.

From Chart and presentation settings, select Expand if it does not expand automatically and complete as required:

• General Settings:

  

  • Units - Enter an engineering unit, for example, °C, psi or Volts, up to a maximum of six characters. For information on entering special characters, see How do I enter special characters?.

    Tip - The unit displays with the channel value on the Operator Panel.

  • Number Format - Select either:

    • Numeric - Displays values in decimal format, for example, 12345.6789 displays as 12,345.6789.

    • Scientific - Displays values in scientific notation, useful for very large or very small numbers. Numbers display as a coefficient multiplied by a power of 10, for example, 12345.6789 displays as 1.23456789E+4.

  • Decimal Places - Enter the value, or use the Plus or Minus to set the decimal place (0 to 6).

  • Color - Select a color from one of the 56 available colors:

    

• Scale & Zone Settings:

  

  To set the chart scale and zoning for this channel:

  • Scale Enable - Tick to enable scale configuration and specify the scale type and the number of divisions required:

    • Scale Type ( available only when Scale Enable is enabled) - Select one of the following options:

      • Logarithmic - Divisions are displayed using a logarithmic scale. This option is suitable for analyzing data spanning multiple orders of magnitude.

      • Linear - Divisions are displayed at equal intervals. This option is ideal for displaying uniformly distributed data:

        • Scale Division Major ( available only when Scale Type is Linear) - Enter a value, or use the Plus or Minus to set the major divisions to be included on the chart (valid range 1 to 20).

        • Scale Division Minor (available only when Scale Type is Linear) - Enter a value, or use the Plus or Minus to set the minor divisions to be included on the chart (valid range 1 to 20).

          Note - Scale divisions have no impact on a chart grid, they are only for scale. The grid on the chart is defined by the division settings on the group, see Configuring Groups Settings for details.

  • Scale maximum (Unit) - Enter a value, or use the Plus or Minus to set the upper limit of the scale's range.

  • Scale minimum (Unit) - Enter a value, or use the Plus or Minus to set the lower limit of the scale's range.

  • Zone maximum (%) - Enter a value, or use the Plus or Minus to set the percentage offset for the upper limit of the scale and trendline relative to the top of the chart (valid range 5 to 100).

  • Zone minimum (%) - Enter a value, or use the Plus or Minus to set the percentage offset for the lower limit of the scale and trendline relative to the bottom of the chart (valid range 0 to 95).

    Note - The minimum value must be less than the maximum value by 5 or more.
    Tip - The Zone settings offset a scale and its associated trendline relative to the chart grid. This is useful when displaying multiple trends with similar value ranges, which would otherwise overlap and become difficult to distinguish. For example, several digital trends switching between 0 and 1 can overlap, making them difficult to distinguish unless each is defined a different Zone.
