Obtaining the average of a non-numeric data

ThiagoTWI

Is it possible to request the average of a PI signal that contains On/Off or 0/1 values? I tried the traditional method but PI returns an error because the place contains a string instead of a numeric value.

    Yes, but it will take a set of steps in an analysis.

    This gets the EVENT weighted average:

    GetValues RecordedValues('Tag',<start time>,<end time>' // Get the archived values

    Length ArrayLength(GetValues) // Get the count of archived values

    FindOn FilterData(GetValues,$val = "ON") // Get only the 'ON' values

    OnCount ArrayLength(FindOn) // Get the count of values

    Percent OnCount/Length*100

     

    To get the TIME weighted average:

    TimeON TimeEQ('Tag',<start>,<end>,"ON")

    TimeNotOn TimeNE('Tag',<start>,<end>,"ON")

    PercentOn TimeON/ Total(TimeOn,TimeNotOn) * 100

     

    These assume there is no bad data.
