Computation Module

Require: IP-Symcon >= 4.3

This module can perform various auxiliary calculations on a set of variables, for example, the sum or the average.

function scope

  • Calculations of various values based on a set of variables:
    • Sum
    • Minimum
    • Maximum
    • Average
    • Number of variables
  • Output of the calculated values in variables
  • Updating of the values as soon as one of the variables changes

software installation

Name Description
All All calculations presented in this table are performed
Sum The sum of all selected variables is stored in the status variable Sum
Minimum The minimum value of the selected variables is stored in the Minimum status variable
Maximum The maximum value of the selected variables is stored in the status variable Maximum
Average The average of the selected variables is stored in the status variable Average
Number The number of selected variables is stored in the status variable Number

status variables

The status variables are created automatically. Deleting individual ones can lead to malfunctions.

Status variables

A corresponding status variable is created for each calculation.
