The previously acquired data are lost changing one of the following
settings:
•
Storing rate
•
Selection or deselection of Peak option
•
Selective mode timing
•
Kind and number of bands
•
Date and time of the monitoring station
It is therefore suggested to download all the data before changing any
of the listed settings.
In general, great care shall be adopted in changing the timing or type
of average or the saving rate.
Indeed, data recorded with the same station, relative to the same day
but acquired with different settings will not be compatible. Only
results acquired before changing setting will be displayed in the
graph or table of the same day. Results acquired with the new setting
will be displayed starting from the next day.
If it is really necessary to change the settings, NARDA recommends
one of the following procedure:
•
Change the station name before making the settings change.
In this case the station with the new name is considered a new
station with all data and results stored in a new station directory.
The old station name will be still available in the station list
allowing selection and display of all data acquired previously.
•
Change the name of the directory in which the previous data were
saved before the settings change (or in any case before
downloading the new data).
In this case the station maintains the same name but, even if not
lost, no old data will be displayed.
To display data acquired with the old setting it will be necessary
to add a station in the list which Station ID (name) correspond to
the changed name of the old directory.
•
Do not download the data acquired in the period of time between
the settings change and the midnight of the same day if neither of
the above suggestions is adopted and results of the same day are
not needed.
