datapoint

Purpose:

Control the sequencing and reporting of various channel measurements.

Channels are specified in the /specs/pam_specs.nnn as Variable Lists, each delimited by a $ line. It handles time-averaged or instantaneous values, computes performance parameters, and writes to PAM Datapoint and local Fuel Log files.

Enter:

datapoint [spc_specs.NNN_filename]  [-csv] &

Where:

spc_specs.NNN_filename Optional. Specify the file for SPC specifications modified between fuel readings.
-csv Optional. Specify this option to write the log file in .csv format.

Example:

datapoint/cyflex/datapoint/datapoint2.spc -csv &

Notes:

Variable values may be time-averaged or instantaneous. For averaged values, it configures channels and sends them to the stat_child task. Datapoint runs perpetually as part of CyFlex startup, responding to events. Specification => /cyflex/datapoint/datapoint2.spc.

After data for a Variable List is available, various flow and performance computations are made. The results are written into DARTS Datapoint and local Fuel Log files.
