Notes:   (1)

  - in the case of a 90 MB file, the copying time is equal to approx. 11 min. (approx. 135 kB/s, also depending on    

                             the type of memory)

Archive storage memory

only

 prevents unintentional creation of an archive in the USB  

                             memory installed in the port by accident, in order to perform file operations, or by unauthorized personnel 

 

          (3)

 – formatting deletes all data from the memory (with the exception of configuration files); this operation is   

                            recommended in the event of problems with accessing data 

NOTE:  

!

 

- during file operations or formatting of memory, 

do not shut down the power supply

 and 

do not take out the   

   USB memory,

 as this may cause a loss of recorded data or the current configuration (parameters and names) 

- until the file operations or memory formatting is completed, recording is stopped and transmission of files with  
   measurement data over the Ethernet from the ARSOFT-LOG level is blocked 

 

12.4. CONFIGURATION OF MEASUREMENT CHANNELS

 

The recorder can present and record data from a maximum of 16 measurement channels from wireless sensors of 
the AR43x, series, from one wired temperature probe (AR182 and AR183), and through the RS485 interface from 
any Apar devices using the MODBUS-RTU protocol. 
As a default, the device is delivered with an empty list of measurement channels. In order to present the data, new 
sensors/devices (radio and wired, chapter 12.5) must be added to the list.
