Create Signal List

In order to minimize errors while handling the big amount of inputs, the cluster "connection cards" which assigns signals to their names, is created with this VI.

The file can be found here: Gitlab CoSES\LabVIEW\Heat\Signallists

Out of a csv file with the position of each signal and necessary information to convert it, the cluster is created with "Create Signallist.vi".

The csv file is structured like this:

The headers should be filled as follows:

• Module:
  Abbreviation of the module
  HS - Heat Sink
  ST - Solar Thermal
  CHN - Heat Transfer Station
  TS - Thermal Storage
  CHP - Combined Heat and Power
  EB - Condensing Boiler
  HP - Heatpump
  DH -  District Heating Emulator
• Name:
  Signal name, see Hardware (Heat)
• Pos_:
  Position within the IO card, start a new count for each signal type and each cRIO
• Lower Limit:
  Limit, where the AI signal = 0 (e.g. 2V, a input value lower than this limit shows a problem with the connection, e.g. a broken wire or sensor)
• Upper Limit:
  e.g. 10V
• Max_ Value:
  Maximal output value at the upper limit
• Value/Count
  Output value per Count up
• CeroFlowCondition
  tbd
• TimeMeanValue
  tbd
