Minimum / MIN
Function Returns the lowest value of all inputs.
For example, in control technology, continuous positioning signals are often
calculated using mathematical functions. These functions are defined for the entire
set of real numbers, while positioning signals are typically valid only for a subset of
numbers, for example, 0 to 100 percent.
You can use the MIN icon to define the maximum output value to a signal. If, for
example, a function outputs a value above 100, you can use MIN to select either the
function output or 100, whichever is lower.
I/O Dialog Box
Excel Web / Excel Web II
Inputs Two through six analog inputs (X1 through X6, Excel Web / Excel Web II: 32 inputs,
1 to 32). Minimum two inputs.
You can enter the first input as a parameter (engineering unit index number and
value).
Output One analog output (Y).
Internal Parameters None.
Parameter Number
Descriptions None.
Example See Positioning Signal Limitation in the Examples chapter for an application that
uses the MIN and MAX icons to limit an output signal.
Also see the Duty Cycle (DUC) section. You can use MIN to calculate an input value
for lowest zone temperature.
