Analog Trend
Function Code 66
The analog trend function code is part of the Symphony dis-
(6 6 )
S1
T R EN D tributed trending package. It performs initial data compres-
N
sion for operator consoles and open access systems at the
module level.
Trend data can be gathered in two ways, normal or fast,
depending on the desired resolution. Specification S3 selects
the trend resolution. Normal trending mode gathers trend data
every 60 seconds. Fast trending is every 15 seconds.
Specification S2 selects the trend mode. Over the collection
period each value collected is the sample, mean, minimum,
maximum or sum of the input value <S1>.
Output data consists of the last value saved.

Specifications
Spec Tune Default Type Range Description
S1 N 5 I Note 1 Block address of analog input
S2 N 1 I 0-4 Trend mode:
0 = sample
1 = mean
2 = minimum
3 = maximum
4 = sum
S3 N 0 I 0 or 1 Trend resolution2:
0 = normal
1 = fast
NOTES:
1. Maximum values are: 9,998 for the BRC-100, IMMFP11/12
31,998 for the HAC
2. Fast trending requires a higher amount of module utilization than normal trending. Specification S3 cannot be changed during
the on-line configuration mode.

Explanations
Specifications
S1 – BLKADR Block address of the analog input to be trended.
S2 (Trend mode) Sets the trend mode during the collection period
(S3). Each value collected is the sample, mean, minimum,
maximum, or sum for the point.
0 = sample; current point saved every 15 or 60 seconds
1 = mean; arithmetic mean value of all points over the
trending interval
2 = minimum; minimum point value over trending interval
3 = maximum; maximum point value over trending interval
4 = sum; sum of all values collected over trending interval
S3 (Trend resolution) Sets the trend interval.
0 = normal; every 60 seconds
1 = fast; every 15 seconds
NOTE: Fast trending requires a higher amount of module utilization than nor-
mal trending.
Applications
To trend values, configure both an analog exception report and
a trend block for each point trended. Figure 66-1 shows a
sample analog trending configuration. Figure 66-2 shows a
sample digital trending configuration. The block outputs go to
the communication highway and have assigned tag names in
the operator interface station. Both outputs must be config-
ured for each point for display purposes.
To create a trend database and a tag database, refer to the
human system interface configuration instruction. These
instructions have sections titled Trends and Tag Database
that will provide the necessary instructions to create the trend
and tag databases.
