- If the first parameter is a numeric tag or value, you must use the Min( numValue1, numValue2, … , numValueN) format.
- If the first parameter is an array tag in double-quotes or a string tag, you must use the Min( “tagArray“, numSample, optNumIgnore ) format.
- numValue (1…N)
- Integer or Real tags containing the numbers to be analyzed.
- tagArray
- Name of an array tag (Real or Integer) containing the values to be analyzed.
- numSample
- The number of array elements to be analyzed.

Examples
| Tag Name | Expression |
|---|---|
| Tag | Min( 1, 2.34, 5, 7, 4, 8, 9.4 ) // Returned value = 1 |
| Tag | Min( 1, 5, -9, 0, 5, 3 ) // Returned value = -9 |
| Tag | Min( “tagArray[1]“, 3 ) // If tagArray[1]=10, tagArray[2]=20 and tagArray[3]=60, then the Returned Value = 10 |
| Tag | Min( “tagArray[1]“, 3, 10 ) // If tagArray[1]=10, tagArray[2]=20 and tagArray[3]=60, then the Returned Value = 20 |
