Response to power shutdown 

 

1.

 

Auto sync function 

 

When data is lost for 3 seconds, the data remaining in the buffer is written to the 

card and the consistency of the file structure is restored. 

As  a  result,  data  received  more  than  3  seconds  ago  will  not  be  lost  even  if  the 

power is suddenly shut down. 

In  addition,  even  if  the  power  supply  is  cut  off  without  receiving  data  for  more 

than 3 seconds, the file structure will not be damaged. 
 

2.

 

Capacitor backup 

 

Even  if  the  external  power  supply  is  cut  off,  the  internal  power  supply  is 

secured by the capacitor. 
Even if the power supply (main power supply) to the DC power connector is cut off 

while the power switch is ON, the power is supplied from the backup capacitor and 
the shutdown process is performed. 

When the shutdown process is completed, the logger will cut off the power supply 

to itself. 

Power is supplied from the backup capacitor for a short time during the shutdown 

process. 
 

Even  if  the  external  power  supply  is  suddenly  cut  off  due  to  auto  sync  and 

capacitor backup, the possibility of damaging the file structure is low. 
 
Notes 

The  time  required  for  the  shutdown  process  varies  depending  on  the  usage 

conditions of the card used. 

On the other hand, the backup time with a capacitor is limited. 

Please fully verify the effectiveness under the conditions of use.
