DelayLengthL('Expression','Length','MaxLengthDelta','DelayInMeter','Resolution*', 'Filter=0*')

Arguments

'Expression'

input signal

'Length'

Length signal (in m)

'MaxLengthDelta'

Upper limit to take into account the changes of the length signal

'DelayInMeter'

Delay (in m)

'Resolution*'

Resolution: Length basis of the result (in m)

'Filter*'

Optional parameter (default = 0) to set the filter for time-length conversion

'Filter' = 1

Minimum filter

'Filter' = 2

Maximum filter

'Filter' = 0 and others

No filter

Parameters ending with * are only evaluated once at the start of the acquisition..

Description

This function uses the 'Length' length signal (in m) to create a length-based version of 'Expression' that is delayed over 'DelayInMeter' meters. Changes in the length signal that exceed the 'MaxLengthDelta' are ignored. The resolution is the length base of the result (in m).

'Filter' determines what filter is used during the time-to-length conversion.

Mainly for quality data monitoring in conjunction with ibaQDR, measured signals from distant sources can be aligned with regard to the product length. The distance between the signal sources determines the ‘DelayInMeter’ value.
