Special Features
Printer Operation (Continued)
Print Continuous
Directs log records to the printer instead of internal memory. Setup the data log
feature as described in paragraph 5.3.1. The log period must be greater than 10
seconds when printing. If log period is set to a value below 10, the instrument
prints a log record every 10 seconds.
NOTE:
When using Print Continuous, small delays in log period may occur (up to
≈
120 ms per printed record). For time critical applications Log Continuous mode
is recommended.
Print Event
Directs log records to the printer instead of internal memory when an input alarm
or an error event either occurs or is removed. No period is set by user. The
instrument checks for an event every 10 seconds and prints if one exists. If an
event occurs and then is removed within the 10 second window, it will not print.
Use the Data Selection keys to cycle through the different modes. When the desired mode appears,
press
Enter
to activate that mode.
Select Print Stored Log to print data immediately. The screen below displays.
To stop printing at any time and return to the normal display, press
Escape
.
If the mode is Print Continuous or Print Event, use the Log On/Off key to start and stop printing. With
Print Continuous or Print Event selected, only the Data Log (
D
) annunciator displays during printing.
The data log prints in the format below:
MM/DD/YY HH:MM:SS 1:+123.45US 2:+123.45US 3:+123.45US 4:+123.45US
5:+123.45US 6:+123.45US 7:+123.45US 8:+123.45US
