Appendix 1: PGA3500/MGA6000 – Template Channel 1 Data Definitions

This section will display the channel 1 data definition variables for the PGA3500 and MGA6000 templates that are used in the XGA Viewer software.  This section is meant to be a reference for users.  Note: These values are only suggested values, but it is recommended that these values be used.  The trend values in light blue apply to both the PGA and MGA template, while the trend values in light gray apply only to the PGA template.  Each trend value has nine main points:

  • Slot – The slot that the trend value will be located in

  • Name – The name of the trend value

  • Description – A description of the trend value

  • Src Dec – The number of decimals that the source value has

  • Disp Dec – The number of decimal places to display

  • Units – This will be the units the value will be representing, such as % or °F/°C

  • Min – This is the suggested chart y-axis minimum value

  • Max – This is the suggested chart y-axis maximum value

  • Exp – This can be an expression to view the data
