Threshold value trigger (Page 101). ● Time trigger The value of the data point is transferred at configurable intervals or at a specific time of day. CP 1243-1 Operating Instructions, 04/2017, C79000-G8976-C365-03...
(0 → 1) of a trigger tag is evaluated that is set by the user program. When necessary, a separate trigger tag can be configured for each data point. CP 1243-1 Operating Instructions, 04/2017, C79000-G8976-C365-03...
Note that the analog value preprocessing is performed before the check for a configured threshold value and before calculating the threshold value. This affects the value that is configured for the threshold value trigger. CP 1243-1 Operating Instructions, 04/2017, C79000-G8976-C365-03...

The method is explained based on the following example in which a threshold value of 2.0 is configured. CP 1243-1 Operating Instructions, 04/2017, C79000-G8976-C365-03...
In these cases, the read process value of the data point is entered in the image memory of the CP before the preprocessing cycle of the threshold value calculation (500 ms) elapses. CP 1243-1 Operating Instructions, 04/2017, C79000-G8976-C365-03...

As soon as a value is acquired in the overflow or underflow range, mean value generation is stopped. The value 32767 / 7FFF or -32768 / 8000 is saved as an invalid mean value for the current mean value calculation period and sent with the next message.

Entry as a decimal number according to the range of values of the assigned PLC tag from the bit memory or data area. The entry of the value 0 (zero) is interpreted as a deactivated limit value. CP 1243-1 Operating Instructions, 04/2017, C79000-G8976-C365-03...
If the analog value fluctuates quickly, it may be useful to smooth the analog value first if limit values are configured. 4.10.11 Command outputs Parameters for command outputs With the DNP3 and IEC protocols, the following parameters can be configured for command outputs: ● LATCH_ON / LATCH_OFF ● PULSE_ON CP 1243-1 Operating Instructions, 04/2017, C79000-G8976-C365-03...
