Figure 5:
Transmitted values and the zero limit
To stabilize the display during normal operation, differential currents below the zero limit
(dead band) count as zero and are transferred as such.
Providing the condition for transmitting a current value is fulfilled, all the differential currents
belonging to the respective zone are sent to the SCS/SMS.
Example 1
sum = sum + |current – last|
if sum > delta then
sum = 0
if current < deadband then
current = 0
endif
send current
endif
last = current
The system continuously performs the above algorithm: It adds up the absolute difference
between the last two measurements (current and last) since the last status update was sent
(sum).
As soon as sum is greater than the threshold delta a new event will be sent with the current
value. If this value is below the deadband threshold, the value 0 will be sent instead.
