In order to present the recorded results graphically or as text or to print them, the data must be imported into the
ARSOFT-LOG-WZ3 software via the USB or using the Ethernet interface. The quickest possible method is to import
the data via the computer's USB; it is recommended in case of very large files (hundreds of megabytes and larger).
The ARSOFT-LOG software also enables detecting unauthorized modifications of the archive.
As an alternative,
csv
files can be edited in spreadsheet software (e.g. OpenOffice Calc, Microsoft Excel) and in text
editors (Windows WordPad, +, etc.).
NOTE:
When the parameter
Archive storage memory
=
Auto select
(chapter 12.6) then if the USB memory is installed or
removed in the course of recording, a new
csv
file is created where the successive numbers of events are
continued from the previous file.
15. MESSAGE AND ERROR SIGNALING
The measurement errors present in the field of the measured values in all presentation modes:
--HI--
- the value set by the
End of the input scale
is exceeded from the top (chapter 12.3, input configuration),
the measurement range of the sensor is exceeded from the top or the sensor is damaged
--LO--
- the value set by the
Start of the input scale
is exceeded from the bottom (chapter 12.3, input configu-
ration), the measurement range of the sensor is exceeded from the bottom or the sensor is damaged
Moreover, the controller has a clear way of informing of its operating status and the status of the file or disk
operations being performed. In order to close the message window appearing in the display, use the
[SET]
or
[ESC]
button.

16. IMPORTANT COMMENTS PERTAINING TO OPERATION
!
In order to ensure problem-free and optimum operation of the controller, please observe the following guidelines:
- do not disconnect the device from the computer in the course of communication via the USB interface, which is
indicated by the
[R/W]
and
[Tx/Rx]
icons. USB communication is in place when the internal memory is serviced
and in the course of operation of the ARSOFT-CFG-WZ1 software.
- delete unnecessary files from the internal memory or the USB memory before new recording start
- save security copies of the current configuration files (
AR654.cfg
and
AR654.txt
) in external memories (USB,
computer hard drives, etc.) for use in the event of problems
-
do not allow power supply loss during data saving
as this may leads to the risk of errors in the FAT file system
and, consequently, to problems with recording/reading of data and loss of the current controller configuration
and reverting to the default configuration. If this happens, perform the following actions from the
Main menu
level of the device or using a computer connected via the USB port:
1. copy (if possible) the existing archive files to an external memory (a USB memory or the computer's disk)
2. format the internal memory
3. configure the controller (manually, on-line, or off-line by restoring the configuration file copies if they have
been made by the user)
-
do not
establish communication with the device
simultaneously
from many applications of the same type
(ARSOFT-CFG-WZ1/LOG-WZ3)
