Lesson 5
Analog input signal indication (PVI function block).
Trends CENTUM VP
Trend is a graph of the change in the process variable over time.
Input Indicator Block (PVI) converts the raw analog input (RAW) value to a process variable (PV), in accordance
with a given scale in engineering units.
The task
Apply a PVI block to indicate an analog input pressure signal in the range of 0-40 meters of water column.

Decision
1 Open the IOM editor:
FCS0101> IOM> NODE1> 1AAI141-S
4 Add Link Block> PIO and bind to it an analog input named %% WATER_PRESSURE

Set the upper limit: Gain = 100.0 Set the
lower limit: Bias = 0.0
Set the cycle time: Cycle = 100 seconds

23 Set the boundary settings via the tuning panel of the TREND block:
HH = 35.0
PH = 30.0
PL = 10.0
LL = 5.0
24 Press the [Process alarm] button - the process crashes window opens:
25 Right-click on any alarm message and select the Trend item in the context menu:
