Item type: Function item - Legacy calculator

This Item is a calculated value based on existing items in Hive. The calculation is formula based on inputs from external Items.

Calculation

The formula can an expression with the names ex1, ex2,ex3,...exN. The formula can include the following Operators, Functions, and Logic.
In most cases when using expressions of kind All*, e.g. AllGoodCount, you will most likely need to have the module property ExtItem pass-through quality is set to Any quality.
Otherwise, one or more external item having a bad quality will prevent the Function item from being evaluated completely.
See also: ExtItem pass-through quality.

A Windows file time is a 64-bit value that represents the number of 100-nanosecond intervals that have elapsed since 12:00 midnight, January 1, 1601 A.D. (C.E.) Coordinated Universal Time (UTC). Windows uses a file time to record when an application creates, accesses, or writes to a file.

An OLE Automation date is a 8 byte floating-point number whose integral component is the number of days before or after midnight, 30 December 1899, and whose fractional component represents the time on that day divided by 24. The base OLE Automation Date is midnight, 30 December 1899.

8 byte float ( 0.0 or 1.0)

Logical expressions are written like (ex1 > 4.5), the result however will be a double value either 0.0 (false) or 1.0 (true). These expressions can be a part of a formula.

The result of a calculation will always be a double value.
