Sum deterministic component delays in critical alarm signal path computes total_alarm_propagation_delay in s and compliance_with_10s_limit in boolean using the defined engineering formula and the input values provided. total_alarm_propagation_delay is expressed in s; compliance_with_10s_limit is expressed in boolean. No universal acceptance threshold is defined by this calculator.
Worked Example
default_test
Given:
- t_asd = 2.1
- t_nac = 1.2
- t_loop = 1.4
- t_scan = 0.8
- t_relay = 0.3
Expected Result:
- compliance_with_10s_limit = 5.8
- total_alarm_propagation_delay = 5.8
Engineering Interpretation:
Under the given input conditions, the calculated result is: compliance_with_10s_limit = 5.8 boolean; total_alarm_propagation_delay = 5.8 s.
The actual numerical result is computed by the Runtime engine using the persisted tool definition. The values shown here come from deterministically validated test cases.
