Counter Limits; Point Archives; Binary States; Profiles - MultiTrode MultiSmart Installation & Operation Manual

MultiSmart Installation & Operation Manual
will simply refer to the Analogue Limit index, and its meaning will not be very obvious. This limitation can
be overcome by populating the Description field with a meaningful description for each point limit.

40.9 Counter Limits

WITS incremental record type 1,004 defines limits for counter points. These records are handled via the
Analogue Water application in exactly the same way as for Analogue Limits.
40.10

Point Archives

WITS incremental record type 1,005 defines records for periodic logs of counters, analogue inputs, and
analogue outputs. This functionality is managed by the Snapshot application and is saved under the
Snapshot.Interval Tags node.
Log information is saved to the file defined by the Snapshot.Log File tag, which is set to
/var/log/snapshot.log by default. The information in this log file can be viewed on the History page of the
LCD by setting the Log Type in the Filters screen to Interval Logs.
Each Interval Tag entry has a Description field. This field is used in exactly the same manner as for
Analogue Limits.
40.11

Binary States

WITS incremental record type 1,006 defines change of state actions for binary inputs. Binary States are
managed by the Analogue Watcher application. The configuration for these records is stored under the
AnalogWatcher.Binary States node.
40.12

Profiles

WITS incremental record type 1,007 defines WITS profiles. These should not be confused with traditional
MultiSmart profiles. Because of this potential confusion, they are always referred to as WITS Profiles
within the configuration.
WITS Profiles are implemented by the Analogue Watcher application. The configuration for these records
is stored under the AnalogWatcher.WITS Profile node.
40.13

Rate of Change

WITS incremental record type 1,008 defines rates of change. This functionality is managed by the
Analogue Watcher application. The configuration for these records is stored under AnalogWatcher.Rates
Of Change.
