Inspect function block parameters

The following table lists the system parameters for the Inspect function block:

Table: Inspect function block system parameters
Parameter	Unit	Description
ADVISORY	None	The number of devices being monitored that have the Advisory flag set.
AREA	None	Note Leave this parameter blank. This parameter exists for compatibility with configurations created with earlier versions of the software. The software automatically determines the Area, Process Cell, or Unit Module, in which the block is located. To report data, insert an Inspect block in a module. If the block's SYSTEM parameter is set to TRUE, the block will report statistics for the entire control system, regardless of where it is located. Otherwise, the block reports statistics only for the current module with the Inspect block.
COMMFAIL	None	The number of devices being monitored that have the Communications Failure flag set.
DEVICES	None	The total number of devices being monitored.
ENABLED	None	Disable or enables Inspect processing on the portion of the plant defined by the AREA parameter
FAILED	None	The number of devices being monitored that have the Failed flag set.
MAINT	None	The number of devices being monitored that have the Maintenance flag set.
PROCESS	The units set in PROCESS_SCALE	The averaged value of PROCESS_IN over the configured TIME_FRAME and TIME_WINDOW.
PROCESS_IN	The units set in PROCESS_SCALE	The input value the Inspect block averages to produce the PROCESS value. PROCESS_IN can be tied to a CALC block, a process value, or an OPC value.
PROCESS_LABEL	None	The label for the process value of the inspect block. The label, value, and units appear in the Overview page.
PROCESS_SCALE	None	The scale and units for the PROCESS value. The label, value, and units appear in the InSight Overview page.
SYSTEM	None	Set to TRUE on *only* one Inspect block in the configuration to have InSight monitor the entire system. Set to FALSE to have the Inspect block monitor only the current module.
TIME_FRAME	None	Now, Current, or Previous
TIME_WINDOW	None	Hour, Shift, or Day
UTILIZATION	Percent	Average Percent Time that Control blocks were in their configured Normal Mode.
