Deadband

Jump to Section

The deadband condition exposes an input for each source. If the source is {{Connection.opc.tag}} the deadband conditioned input is {{Condition.myDeadband.opc_tag}}. Reading this value returns the deadbanded opc tag value.

Deadband works on simple numeric data types and numeric types in complex data. For complex data, each numeric attribute is deadbanded separately.

Settings Description
Absolute Deadband

The absolute value that the source must change to reflect the new value in the output. The source must change more than this absolute value.

As an example, if the setting is 5 and the source changes from 0 to 4, the deadbanded value remains 0. If the value changes to 5, it remains 0. If the value changes to 6, the new deadband value is 6.
