Parameterizing the fixed block and rolling block methods
SENTRON PAC4200 supports the fixed block method as a special case of the rolling block
method. The most important distinguishing feature is the number of subperiods.
Number of subperiods:
The demand period can be divided into a maximum of five subperiods.
● The number "1" defines the fixed block method. In this case, the length of the subperiod
is identical to the length of the demand period.
● The numbers "2" to "5" define the rolling block method.
