When to Write Data Log Record

control what conditions create a data log record.
Write a record every period:
If the Write Period is 60 seconds, this will create a new data log record every
60 seconds consistently.
Write when data changes, and periodically:
The IODB list is sampled every second, and if changes are

seconds in this example).
