25.11.3.5 Mode / Bit Change

Collects data every time the designated bit changes state (ON/OFF).

Execution Condition

Select the sampling action execution condition. Select [Bit Change].

Sampling Trigger Bit Address

Select the address which will control the sampling's timing. The sampling will execute every time this address changes (ON/OFF).

Occurrences

Select the number of times sampling will occur. The setting range is from 1 to 65535.

Data Full Bit Address

After the designated number of data samples are completed, this address will be used to confirm that the operation is finished. Select whether or not to verify this bit address.

This bit tells when a data sampling cycle is complete. The sampling operation will continue running even when this bit is ON.

Data Clear Bit Address

Designate the bit address to control the clearing of the sampling data. When this address turns ON, all the Sampling Group data stored in the display unit will be erased. After clearing the data, this bit will turn OFF.

Extended

Displays the [Extended] dialog box.

Overwrite old data after finishing the specified cycles

Data will be overwritten and stored, starting with the oldest data, after data has been sampled the designated number of times. This setting is fixed to enable.

Add Time Data

Select whether or not to store the sample time along with the sampled data. If this is not designated, when displaying/saving in CSV or printing, the date/time columns will be blank.

Retain Sampling Data (SRAM)

Select whether or not to save the sampling data to the backup memory (SRAM). If the sampling data is not saved, the data will be deleted when the power to the display unit is turned OFF or reset.

Back Up Sampling Data

Select whether or not to backup sampling data backup memory (SRAM) automatically in external storage every time the designated number of sampling cycles is completed. The data is saved in binary format.
Data backed up in the external storage will be used when displaying historical data in a historical trend graph. If data is not backed up in external storage, historical data will be displayed only for the number of occurences saved in the backup memory (SRAM).

25.14.1 Usage Capacity of Sampled Data

Save in

Select the "Save in" location for backup data from [CF card], [SD Card] and [USB storage].

Folders are automatically created for each sampling group in the "Save in" location. The saved file name will be Time Stamp (year/month/day/hour/minute/second when saved).

For example, when it is saved at 14:30:05 on July 2, 2007

\SAMP**\T070702_143005#.bin
("**" represents sampling group number and "#" represents index number)

Backup Count

Specify the number of times (1 to 500) to write the backup data.

When Exceeding Backup Count

Select an action when the number of backup data file exceeds the value set in the Backup Count

Delete the oldest file and add a new file.
