Scalars Operation
The scalar sensor applies a gain (if specified) to the input
which is then multiplied by the scalar and the offset
added. If signed is ticked and the gain is not set to
NONE, the input is treated as a twos compliment
number. The scalar sensor is used for linear signals.
Functions Operation
The function table sensor is used when a non-linear
signal needs to be processed. The function table sensor
applies a gain (if specified) to the input and looks up the
input in the function table to produce the appropriate
output. If the input falls between two values, linear
interpolation is used to derive the output value. If signed
is ticked and the gain is not set to NONE, the input is
treated as a twos compliment number.
To edit the function table, click the ellipsis button
(...) to
show the function table editor:
Ensure there are no duplicate inputs as this may result
in abnormal behavior.
Rate Filters Operation
An output using a rate filter checks that the rate of change of the input value does not exceed a specified amount. If
the rate of change is too high the new data is discarded.
Limit Filters Operations
An output using a limit filter checks that an input value never exceeds specified levels, either high or low. This can be
used to prevent invalid data from reaching other outputs or gauges. If data is received that exceeds either of the high
or low values (if specified) the data is discarded.
Time Filters Operation
Normally, outputs send data to gauges as fast as possible. However, by creating an output using a time filter
operation, it is possible to specify the update rate of the output which is useful for making rapidly changing values
