PAR. DATA
NO. TYPE DESCRIPTION
01: 2 Delay
02: 4 Iteration count
The following example involves the use of the
Loop Instruction, without a delay, to perform a
block data transformation.
The user wants one hour averages of the vapor
pressure calculated from the wet- and dry-bulb
temperatures of five psychrometers. One
pressure transducer measurement is also
available for use in the vapor pressure
calculation.
1. The input locations are assigned as follows:
a) pressure
-location 10
b) dry-bulb temperatures -location 11-15
c) wet-bulb temperatures -location 16-20
d) calculated vapor pressure -location 16-20
(vapor pressure is written over the wet-bulb
temperatures.)
2. The program flow is as follows:
a) Enter the Loop Instruction 87 with
delay=0 and iteration count=5.
b) Calculate the vapor pressure with
Instruction 57 using a normal location
entry of 10 for atmospheric pressure
and Indexed locations of 11, 16, and 16
for the dry-bulb, wet-bulb and
calculated vapor pressure, respectively.
c) End loop with Instruction 95.
d) Use the If Time Instruction 92 to set the
Output Flag every hour.
e) Use the Average Instruction 71 with 5
repetitions starting at Input Location 16
to average the vapor pressure over the
hour.
The actual keyboard entries for the examples
are shown below with the first example
Instruction location equal to 10. The Input
Instructions to make the pressure and
temperature measurements are assumed.

The Loop with a delay may be used so that only
those instructions within the Loop are executed
while certain conditions are met. As a simple
example, suppose it is desired to execute one
set of instructions from midnight until 6 AM,
another set between 6 AM and 4 PM, and a
third set between 4 PM and midnight. Between
6 AM and 4 PM, samples are desired every ten
seconds; the rest of the time one minute
between samples is sufficient. The execution
interval is set to ten seconds; when a one
minute sample rate is desired, a delay of 6 (6 x
10s = 60s) is used in the loop.
