End date and End time: Define the date and time at which recording is to end (this is another way
of defining the duration of recording).
Record Now : this check box allows you to synchronize a recording with the instruments clock.
When checked the Start date/time and End date/time dialog controls are disabled. In addition when
the configuration is written to the instrument the instrument will be instructed to start recording at that
moment for the specified duration.
Reset Date/Time : Sets the recording start date and time to the current time plus 60 seconds. Also
sets the recording end date and time to the new start time plus the selected recording duration.
Storage Mode: how to handle the storage of data when memory becomes full.
- Start/Stop: will cause the recording to start at the specified time and continue until memory
becomes full or the recording end time is reached (which ever occurs first).
- FIFO: will cause the recording to start at the specified time and continue until the recording
end time is reach. If memory becomes full before the end time the oldest samples are
discarded until the recording terminates. This results in a duration that is dependent on the
amount of memory and the storage rate. For example if the storage rate and available
memory allows for an 8 hour recording, and a 24 hour period was selected to record over,
the sample store will cover the last 8 hours in that 24 hour period.
- XRM: will cause the recording to start at the specified time and continue until the recording
end time is reached. If memory becomes full before the end time every other sample is
discarded (freeing up half of the memory), the storage rate is cut in half and storage
continues. This repeats until the recording end is reached. This results in a recording that
contains samples covering the desired recording period with sample rate adjusted to
accommodate that period.
Starting mode: Select one of the following two modes to start recording:
Normal: recording starts at the exact time specified.
Synchronous: the start of recording is synchronized to the time according to the recording
rate chosen. If, for example, the recording rate is 5 seconds, recording will start on second 0,
5, 10, 15, 20, 25, 30, 35, 40, 45, 50, or 55 of a minute. Recording starts at the first such
synchronization after the specified starting time.
Measurement setup : – lists the channels available to be recorded. If more than one channel is
listed you will be able to enable and disable the recording of each channel. At least one channel
must be selected for recording.
Erase: commands the erasure of the data and alarms recorded in the logger.
The Memory window indicates the total memory, the available memory, and the memory required for
the current configuration. Changes to the recording duration, to the recording rate, and to the
number of active channels automatically update the quantity of memory required.
Set Clock: displays a window in which to set the time (and date) of the instrument.
Input Range: choice of input ranges (0.1 V, 1 V, 10 V), on the model L432 only.
Other commands (bottom of the screen) :
Read: reading of the configuration of the instrument with restoration of the basic options.
Save: saves the current configuration to a file.
Load: used to restore a configuration previously recorded.
