Flow Total

The RealTime Flow Total application provides the ability to automatically calculate values from other RealTime data.

The application sums the specified values from assigned points in the analog, rate, gasmeter, or gasquality tables, or a flow total rate from the flowTotalConfig table. The sum of the values is stored in the flowTotalConfig record, which can maintain up to four separate summations simultaneously. Each summation is stored in a calculation element.

Note: The system can accommodate up to 500 flow total points, by default. Systems may be installed with a larger or smaller capability.

The module calculates the flow total in a priority order.

Note: There are 65,535 flow total priority levels.

A continually-running monitor process totals the flow rate of the contributing points into each flowTotalConfig point at a configured frequency.

Note: Both the minimum frequency and the default frequency is once every 15 seconds.
