Math components process one or more StatusNumeric input values and provide a StatusNumeric output. Each component type provides a specific math function like Add, Average, Divide, Minimum, Maximum, Reset, AbsValue, and so on.
Math object types vary by number of inputs used, in addition to math operation.
-
The following Math types perform an operation on from one to four inputs:
-
The following Math types perform an operation using two inputs:
-
The following Math types perform an operation on a single input:
-
Reset (using 4 values of high and low limits, both input and output, also linkable as inputs)
Starting in AX-3.6, an “ExprMath” component was added to the Math folder in the kitControl palette, however, it is unlike all others—and technically not a “math component”. Instead it is a demonstration example of an Expr component(BqlExprComponent) that provides a 4-input Add math function.
If needed, you can add alarm and history extensions to any math component, in addition to the control extension NumericTotalizerExt.
As with logic components, you can individually configure math components to “propagate” status flags received on linked inputs
(by default, status propagation does not occur). For more details, see “How status flags are set” in the User Guide.
