5.1.4 DATA STORING FORM
Touching the current selection of the Data Storing Form shows selectable options at the bottom of the screen. Choose
among the following options.
Float
Floating point
1 data size: 4 bytes
Decimal fraction: max. 4 decimal places (effective number of digits: 6 or 7)
Float is to be selected when you need to store data including decimal fractions. The
4-byte-long data is better in data precision but the total storable time in the CF Card
becomes shorter compared from Short Int.
Short int
Short integer
Integer data multiplied by 10. The 2-byte-long data is not as precise (one decimal
place) as Float type is, but the total storable time in the CF Card is longer.
WHICH FORM TO CHOOSE? -- EXAMPLE
If you have selected Short integer, and when an input range 1 – 5V is converted in an engineering unit range of 0 –
10, the actual converted values are: 0 at 1V input, 0.25 at 1.1V. In this case, the 73VR21x can store only one decimal
place, and ‘0.25’ is saved only as ‘0.2.’ Likewise, the input 1.15V is converted into 0.275 in the engineering unit range,
but is saved also as ‘0.2.’ 1.1V and 1.15V inputs make no difference in the short integer form.
Choose Float if you want to make difference between 1.1V and 1.15V.
WARNING !
When the data storing form setting is changed, new data stored in the same data file overwrite previously stored data.
5.1.5 DATA OVERWRITE
You can specify if you want to stop recording or continue recording by overwriting the oldest data when the CF card
capacity is full. Detailed explanations on the data file is given in Section “10.1 73VR21x FILES”.
OFF
Recording is stopped.
ON
Recording continues by overwriting the oldest data.
5.1.6 SCREEN SAVER
The LCD display’s backlight can be turned off when the screen is untouched for a specific time period.
Touching the current selection of the Screen saver replaces the screen with a numeric keypad. The setting can be
modified even while recording is in progress.
Enter a desired time in minutes to initiate the screen saver.
Screen saver time setting
Selectable range: 0 to 99 (minutes)
The screensaver function is deactivated with the time set to zero (0).
Touching the screen cancels the screen saver mode. The screen saver is automatically cancelled when an alarm is
output.
5.1.7 TOUCH PANEL BEEP
You can specify if you want a beep sound or not whenever you touch the screen.
Touching the current selection of the Touch panel beep shows selectable options at the bottom of the screen. The
setting can be modified even while recording is in progress.
OFF
Beep sound is off.
ON
Beep sound is on.
