Basic principles
The Advanced Diagnostics offers additional options to monitor the process. The device
contains two Advanced Diagnostics Blocks which can be used separately or in combination.
A measuring variable can be assigned to the input of each Advanced Diagnostics Block.
Based on a freely configurable time interval, the variable can be submitted to a statistical
function (e.g. maximum, minimum, mean, slope). Finally, a limit detection can be
parametrized and its result can be transmitted to a digital output.
The result can be displayed and evaluated by a DCS or PLC. If required, it can also be linked
to the second Advanced Diagnostics block and thus it is possible to combine the two results
by the logical operators AND or OR.
