I have a tag that correlates to an external companies’ mostly proprietary machine that we aren’t allowed to mess with the PLC of at all.
The tag displays a product count (ranging from 0 to about 90) in the last minute, sort of a case per minute count.
Whenever that tag goes above 5 for the first time each day, I want to start tracking it until it drops to ) for longer than an hour, and while tracking it I want to show how long it has been above 5 expressed as a percentage at the current point in the day.
Ie. if the tag goes above 5 at 5:35 am and it is currently 9:55 am I am trying to show what percent of those elapsed 260 minutes the value was at least 5.
I am currently mainly trying to do this all within the perspective view but wondering if I am better serviced running a gateway event that writes a runtime percent value each minute for me to reference in the view.
Any help or insight appreciated, sorry for probably dumb question or poor explanation.
