Chapter 9. MVS-<strong>STX</strong> Math Channels<br />

• The MVS interprets equations using<br />

st<strong>and</strong>ard math rules regarding order of<br />

operations. If you are unsure of how to<br />

apply these rules, use parentheses to<br />

ensure that the MVS is calculating what<br />

you want it to calculate.<br />

• The maximum value that a math channel<br />

can display is limited to six active digits;<br />

if the calculated value exceeds this<br />

maximum, an error message will appear<br />

when monitoring the channel. To prevent<br />

this error, scale down the value from the<br />

equation using the divide function. Note<br />

that the magnitude of the maximum value<br />

is dependent on the Form selected for<br />

the channel (see Chapter 5, MVS-<strong>STX</strong><br />

Display Menu, for selecting the Form).<br />

Equations containing more than 40 characters<br />

or more than three constants can be<br />

created by putting additional math channels<br />

on-line. These additional channels can be<br />

used to calculate intermediate results used<br />

by the math channel. The channels used to<br />

calculate the intermediate results can be<br />

hidden from the display by using the Hide<br />

function in the Disp Menu. The example<br />

below shows an incorrect equation with more<br />

than three constants <strong>and</strong> the use of multiple<br />

math channels to create a correct equation.<br />

Incorrect (contains more than 3 constants)<br />

C9=10*C3+100*C2+1000*C4+10000*C1<br />

Correct<br />

C10=10*C3 (hide this channel)<br />

C9=C10+100*C2+1000*C4+10000*C1<br />

Enabling a<br />

Math Channel<br />

Note<br />

Refer to RScn in Chapter 8, MVS-<strong>STX</strong><br />

Service Menu, for an explanation of the<br />

use of the Rescan function.<br />

1. If in Auto Mode (Auto LED illuminated),<br />

press the Auto/Man Key to put the MVS<br />

in Manual Mode. The Auto LED turns off.<br />

Note<br />

It does not matter what channel the<br />

Manual Mode is in when you go into<br />

the menu tree to enable channels.<br />
