Measurements
Measurements are a type of property.
They are usually used to represent an analogue (ie. not 1 or 0) signal coming in from the field, but can also be used to store almost any numeric value.
Measurements are an example of a complex property, in that the value is actually made up of several attributes:
| Node | Description | Example |
|---|---|---|
| Measurement | The value of the measurement | 12 |
| Units | The units that the measurements are in | Deg C |
| Min | The minimum possible value | 0 |
| Max | The maximum possible value | 100 |
| Points | The number of decimal points in the result | 1 |
Display Options
Measurements also have display options that allow you to adjust how they look in ARDI-VE.
These are setup via the list of properties.
Range Type
| Type | Effect |
|---|---|
| Floating | Floating properties have a range of values which start at a set amount. |
| Zero-Based | Zero-Based properties have a range of values which start from 0. |
| Zero-Center | Zero-Center properties have a range from some negative value to the equal and opposite positive value, making 0 the exact center. |
| Fixed | Fixed measurements can range from any two specified values. Fixed measurements also allow for the option of a colour scheme gradient that reflects the value of the property. |
