3.15.4.2 Limit value supervision
All the measurement inputs have individual limit supervision modules that operate
similarly as in the measurement functions. The measured values are compared
against their set value limits. The limit supervision outputs are HIGH_ALARM,
HIGH_WARN, LOW_WARN and LOW_ALARM.
When an output is scaled,
Value maximum
and
Value minimum
are the range limits
to which the output value is limited or scaled. Hysteresis is added to the range limit
values so that the output value is allowed to slightly exceed or go below the limit
value before being treated as out of range.
The pre-defined hysteresis values are set based on the set
