Understanding the Contact status

      Hello everyone, I'm working on a model with a lot of contact element. During my post processing i've got a 0.5 value of contact statut. I don't know how to interpret that result. Some one told me that it was because it's an average result but I am not sure.

      Could you please help me figure it out? Thanks in advance

      Hi Hermann,
      It may be the average value. Will you please upload the screenshot of it? Are you talking about this contact status that I mentioned in the screenshot? 

      For more information, you can see this mentioned link
