Process Value Function
The Process Value (PV) function block accepts multiple in-
puts and performs a programmed math function to derive 
an output value with Filter and Offset values applied. It 
is assumed that no input error conditions apply. Some PV 
operations must be performed in the user's units. Func-
tions may combine multiple inputs. Those inputs may have 
incompatible units from a logical point of view. As a result, 
unless otherwise indicated, the presentation of the output 
value is the same as Source A. This accommodates tem-
peratures being multiplied, divided and offset by constants 
and process inputs. Only inputs that have a source associ-
ated to them are used in the calculations.
An error, when read, can indicate any of the following: 
None, Open, Shorted, Measurement Error, Bad Cal Data, 
Ambient Error, RTD Error, Fail, Math Error, Not Sourced,
