Log Time Setup (
LOGTIME
)
The
Log Time
menu contains four log events (
LOG 1
to
LOG 4
). Each log time is configured independently.
For each daily log time desired, enable a log, and set
the log time for the hours and minutes the log is to be
recorded. The time is set in real-time hours and
minutes, based on the real time clock setup.
The
Log Time
feature will roll-over, deleting the oldest
data logs (in blocks of 8) when the log is full and new
logs must be recorded. This makes it the most useful
for long-term data logging.
Interval Setup (
INTERVL
)
The
Interval
menu sets the time interval for data log-
ging. Every time interval, one data log event will be
recorded. To enable interval data logging, enable the
feature, and set the interval time for the hours and
minutes between each log.
If set to
FULSTOP
, the
Log Interval
feature will not de-
lete old data, and data logging will stop when the log
is full. This makes it the most useful for short periods
and logging specific functions.
If set to
CONT
, the
Log Interval
feature will delete the
old data when full and continue logging data. The
Log
Interval
feature will roll-over, deleting the oldest data
logs (in blocks of 8) when the log is full and new logs
must be recorded. This makes it the most useful for
long-term data logging.
View Data Log (
LOGVIEW
)
The Log View menu allows on-screen browsing of the
data log event records stored in the scanner. Data
points may be navigated by viewing the log number,
date and time, first eight enabled PVs and four CVs. A
known log may be jumped to immediately, avoiding a
lengthy search for data. All logs may be deleted with
the
ERASE
command, requiring confirmation.
Once the log records are displayed, use the
Enter
key to display variable within the same log and move
to the next log. Use the
Up
and
Right
arrows to move
to the next or previous log number.
Note 1: All enabled PVs and CVs will display in order,
the Tag for each PV and CV will flash before display-
ing the value.
Note 2: All tags, values, and units will appear on the
lower display with exception of feet and inches for-
matted values on the feet and inches display models.
These parameters will automatically alternate on the
display.
Backlight (
BAKLITE
)
The
Backlight
menu is used to enable or disable the
backlight. After pressing
Enter
to access the
Back-
light
menu, press the
Up
arrow to
Enable
(
ENABLE
) or
Disable
(
DISABLE
) for the backlight.

ommended to access this menu without instruction
