Programming Rules and Limitations
The following are some rules and limitations you must take into account when
programming the TriLog, as TriLog integrates all programming limitations
automatically. TriLog will only allow the programming of settings that comply with the
rules below.
1.Sampling points:
•
Increasing the number of active inputs limits the number of
sampling points one can choose. The following condition must
be always satisfied: Samples
×
Active Inputs < Memory.
•
TriLog
’
s memory is sufficient for 170,000 samples.
•
When sampling at rates faster than 100 samples per second the
memory can store only four experiments of 32,000 samples
each.
•
When sampling at rates of 100 samples per second or less,
selecting
Maximum
sampling points will create up to four
successive files of 42,500 points each (a total of 170,000
points), depending on the available memory.
2. Sampling rate:
The number of sensors in use limits the maximum sampling rate:

3. Continuous sampling
•
Continuous sampling is possible up to a maximum sampling rate of
100/s.
