Displaying matrix parameter arrays in DeltaV Operate

You can view numbers from floating point arrays (matrix parameters) in DeltaV Operate.

Note

Matrix Parameter Arrays report values to DeltaV Operate once every 10 seconds even if the data link requests at a faster rate.

In addition to the user-defined parameters that can use floating point array as their parameter type, the following function blocks also have floating point arrays:

Floating point array parameters can be accessed in graphics by using the following format:

User parameters

dvsys.module_name/parameter_name[X][Z].f_cv

(where [X][Z] are the [row][column] of the array value)

Function blocks

dvsys.module_name/SPLTR1/parameter_name[X].f_cv

dvsys.module_name/SGCR1/parameter_name[X].f_cv

(where [X][Z] are the [row][column] of the array value)
