6.3.5  Graphical test operation 

In the "Graphical test operation" menu (M59) you can perform measurements in one or more 

measurement programs and use the recorded measurement curve(s) to define the graphical evaluation 

elements such as "Window", "Trapezoid", "Threshold" and "Envelope". The 10 most recent measurement 

results from each measurement program are saved. You can select 

[CrvArray] 

to display this set of 

recorded measurement curves as a curve array. When calculating an envelope, the DIGIFORCE

®

 9311 

uses these measurement curves as the basis for generating the "Envelope".  

Note: 

Note that on activation of the "IN_AUTO" control input, the "Graphical test operation" menu 

(M59) will close automatically and the DIGIFORCE

®

 9311 will switch to measurement mode. In 

"Graphical test operation", the other PLC I/O control signals respond in exactly the same way as 

in measurement mode, and the online switching points are also active.  

 

Diagram 57:  Graphical test operation
