If the divisor is not an energy measurement point, the last archived value of the calculation interval at the time of KPI calculation is considered. If an archived value is not available, the instantaneous value of the measurement point at the time of KPI calculation is considered. However, if it is an energy measurement point, the energy consumption for that calculation interval is considered for the KPI calculation. The value of the divisor should always be greater than 0.
- Measurement Point: Select this option to specify the divisor as a measurement point.
- Manual Value: Select this option to specify the divisor as a manual value. If you select Manual Value, you will have to enter a Value and Unit for the KPI calculation.
