Minimum

The function block has 8 input pins and 1 output pin. This function calculates the minimum of 8 inputs or those set as constant. The output is set to the smallest input. Unused/invalid inputs are ignored.

Note: If one or more inputs are selected as constant, any previous connection from outputs of other functional blocks to this block is removed automatically and the minimum of the selected constant values is set as the output.

Ignore invalid inputs: Select this option if you want the function block to ignore any invalid inputs, and consider only the valid inputs to calculate the output. If this option is left unselected, the invalid inputs would make the output also invalid.

Note: This option is not supported in the LonSpyder I models PVL6436A, PVL6438N, or PUL6438 and therefore you cannot download this configuration to those models.

Inputs

Range

Input Name Low High Input Value Invalid flag Description
in1-8 >=- infinity <+ infinity unconnected Not used in calculation.
If all inputs are unconnected, output is invalid.
in1-8 >=- infinity <+ infinity invalid 0 Not used in calculation. If all inputs are invalid, output is invalid.
in1-8 >=- infinity <+ infinity   1 If any input is invalid then output is invalid.
