MP-Web Calculation Groups

How to use Calculation Groups in MP-Web

Introduction

Calculation Groups (Calc Groups) are a means of aggregating data together in a single step. A typical example would be aggregating together the volume or pump rates from a group of wells or borefield. Users could use the Aggregate Calculator, however, aggregating each location individually and then combining those can be time-consuming. With Calculation Groups this can be done in a single step.

General

Provide a Long Name and Short Name for the Calculation Group, which logically defines its contents, for example, Area A Bore field.  Then set a Result Location. This needs to be a distinct Sample Point in MonitorPro for the data to be stored against. If one doesn't exist use Add to create a suitable Sample Point. 

Sample Point

Here choose the Sample Points that make up this Group. Move them from the left (unselected) to the right (selected) as required. Users can equally choose the Sample Points using a Sample Point Group. This has the benefit of being able to dynamically update the Calculation Group with changes to the Sample Point Group later on, as required.  

Save the Calculation Group. 

Note

At this stage, the Calculation Group will not have any active effect until it is referenced in an Aggregate or other Calculation.
