4.3.5 Archive configuration
Notes:
1.
For the sake of brevity, the word 'disk' is used for whatever mass-storage medium is fitted to the re-
corder.
2.
The Media/FTP File Format fields appear only if the CSV option is fitted. The option is described later
in this section.
3.
CSV format files are not as secure as Packed Binary format files..
This allows an archive strategy to be set up for saving data to disk or to a remote PC. The disk strategy includes ar-
chive period, disk full operation, compression factor and an estimate of the maximum-time-to-next-archive to avoid
data being overwitten in memory (Duration). This period is almost always greater than the space available on a floppy
disk.
The recorder uses a dedicated area of its Flash memory as an archive data buffer, which means that data is written to
the disk or remote PC only when required, rather than continuously.
In order to carry out a successful remote archive, details of the remote host must be entered both in this Archive sec-
tion of the 'Config' menu, and in Network configuration (
). Further, the current access level must have
'Connect from remote' enabled in the Security/Access menu (
