Time that has passed since the last time
device’s Electronics Temperature has
passed above the value of “ET Upper
Stress Limit” (in days, hours and minutes).
Backup once each 8 hour period
Table 22 – Minimum ET Diagnostics
Electronics Temperature (ET) lower
operating limit from specification.
Units are same degree units as has been
selected for SV (Secondary Variable).
ET Lower Limit
for Stress
Condition
Actual limit used in “Time Below Limit” and
“Time Since Last Event”. Value is equal to
“Min ET Limit” plus 10% of limits range.
Electronics Temperature range is -40C to
85C for a total of 125C.
ET Lower Stress Limit= -40C + 10% of
125C = -27.5C.
None: calculation is automatic.
Lowest Electronics Temperature ever
experienced by the device.
Units are same degree units as has been
selected for SV (Secondary Variable).
Time Below
Lower Stress
Limit
Accumulation of minutes that device’s
Electronics Temperature has been below
the value of “ET Lower Stress Limit”.
Backup once each 8 hour period
Time that has passed since the last time
device’s Electronics Temperature has
passed below the value of “ET Lower Stress
Limit” (in days, hours, and minutes).
