Configuring translation tables
Translation tables define how data received / transmitted by FuelsManager is
scaled or converted to the data required by the device with which FuelsManager is
communicating. FuelsManager provides two types of translation tables:
• Lookup Tables – a simple table defining mapping of one set of values to
another set of values
• Scaling Functions – used to apply a mathematical formula to the value in
order to scale a particular range of values to a different range of values
FuelsManager allows the configuration of user defined names for translation
tables. Once a Translation table is defined it can be used as many times as need
by multiple databases points. This functionality allows the engineer to define all
the required translations once and then simply assign them to the points as
needed.
Translation tables can be associated with Input, Output and Triggered points. In
addition they can be applied to individual Tank Point process values via the Select
Data Source accessed from the Process Data tab.
Lookup Tables
A lookup table defines a one to one mapping of one set of values to an alternate
set of values. This mapping can be numeric to numeric, or coded variable / string
value to numeric.
Numeric to Numeric
Coded Variable to Numeric
Lookup tables can be applied to data being received by FuelsManager and data
being transmitted by FuelsManager.
For data received the From column defines the data being received and the To
column defines the value that will be written in to the FuelsManager database.
