Landis & Staefa Division Function DPO 2-75
2.11 DPO Data Processing Operations
The name DATA PROCESSING refers to a VISONIK DCS software package which
allows the following functions:
Data collection and storing
Data transfer (e.g. to PCs)
Data presentation (using tables and graphs)
There are three main Functions associated with DATA PROCESSING:
DPO
Data Processing Operations
DPC
Data Processing Communication
DPP
Data Processing Presentation
These main functions have, to a large extent, the same basic structure. Function DPO is
particularly suited for configuration, while DPP is a more a user Function for adapting
the presentation of data.

0 GEN = Generate Value Log

5 SERV = Select Service Functions
6 FRAM = Free space in Value Log
Operation=LI :
With Function DPO any parameter values related to real and fictitious points, (which are
practical for DATA PROCESSING purposes), can be logged over a defined time interval
and stored on a VISONIK DCS hard disk.
Either digital or analogue values may be logged. A preliminary condition however, is that
any such points must exist in the process image (generated). Up to one million
instantaneous values can be stored depending on system and hard disk structuring.
Each stored value is automatically complemented with a 'Validity Marker' which provides
an indication of the relative stored value's plausibility. Validity markers appear in listings
of values (Operation LI). For example, the status of parameter OSV (Out of Service) can
be seen using such tagging. A marker is also printed which shows if a measurement
point has generated an Event during the logged interval. Refer to Operation LI (List
Values numerically).
