CHAPTER 7
INTERNAL DATA STORAGE
The STORE MENU allows the operator to store data and manage the internal storage
tags.
The AQ Expert has 2000 internal storage tags. Each tag stores one complete set of air
quality data. There are two ways to store air quality data to the monitor
’s buffer. You can
either store data by selecting the option STORE CURRENT DATA after pressing the
STORE
key, or alternatively you can make use of the monitor
’s capability of storing data
automatically on a periodic basis. You can set the time period between data storage.
The STORAGE MENU shows the relevant display lines for the storage options.
1. STORE CURRENT BUFFER: The monitor will store one set of data into the tag
currently selected. The index number and the name of this tag appear at the
bottom of the screen.
2. SELECT BUFFER: Selecting this item will display an index of the monitor
’s 2000
internal storage tags. Tags that are used have an icon next to their index
number. The selected storage tag is indicated by the reverse color line. When
data is stored, this pointer will automatically advance to the next available tag. If
you want to store data in a different location, use the UP, DOWN, & OK keys to
select a new tag. As you scroll up and down, tags containing data show their
date and time at the bottom of the display. Empty tags show the word
empty
.
3. START AVERAGE TEST: This will begin a period of data averaging, with the
average values stored periodically in successive memory tags. The interval
between each storage cycle is displayed below and can be set by the user. Once
enabled, this line will read:
STOP AVERAGE TEST
.
4. START PERIODIC: This will turn on the periodic store function. In this mode, the
unit will continuously store data at an interval displayed on the next line. Once
enabled, this line will read:
STOP PERIODIC
