Integrator 1Ch
The Integrator 1Ch integrates the input value over time with a base unit of one second and provides the result of this integration operation. For the approximation of this integral the trapezoidal rule is used. The trapezoidal 
between two subsequent timestamps 
and 
with the values 
and 
is calculates as
.
If the integration mode "absolute" ("|x|") is chosen in the configuration, and are substituted by their absolute values in the above equation.
In each cycle the trapezoidal between the current and the last timestamp is calculated and added to the sum of trapezoids starting from the beginning of the analysis. Additionally, this sum can be scaled by a factor that can be configured individually.
Optionally, a Boolean signal can be selected for the Enable Execution input so that the algorithm is only active if the value of the selected signal is TRUE.
Configuration Options
- Integration Mode: You can select an integration mode. "→": the input value is will be integrated directly. "|x|": The absolute values of the input signal will be integrated.
- Factor: With this factor the integral is multiplied.
Output Values
- Result: Shows the result of the integration operation.
Standard HMI Controls
For the Integrator 1Ch algorithm, the following HMI controls are available for generating an Analytics Dashboard:
1. The Integrator Control visualizes the last x output values Result.
2. The Table Control or Multivalue Control visualizes all output values: Result.
Alternatively, customer-specific HMI controls can be mapped in the Integrator 1Ch algorithm using the Mapping Wizard.
