Advanced Tab
Data Logger Submenu
The
Data Logger
submenu contains the tabs used to create log files, establish events to log, and
maintain the log files.
Log Files
Use the
Log Files
page to select a directory location (RAM0 or FLASH0) and file name for the log
file. The system allows a fixed number of log files. Use this page to assign a location and name to
each log file used.
Log files are a CSV formatted text file with one line per data record. The first record is a header
record naming all the registers contained in the subsequent records. All remaining records are a set
of data points, one value per register selected on the
Data Points
page, per line in the file. Another
line is added to the file for each logging of data per the rate set in the
Log Files
page.
One event log and three data logs may be created. The event log saves events based on changes
occurring in defined registers. The data logs store register data based on a periodic rate defined by
the user. Select the event log or one of the three data logs using the Next and Prev buttons.
Enable Logging checkbox: Turns on the data logger.
File name: The file name must be contain no more than eight characters and include the file
extension .txt. Only alpha-numeric characters are allowed in the file name.
Log Rate: The data logger logs at the rate given in HH:MM:SS (hours, minutes, seconds). Logging
is disabled if the rate is zero. To activate continuous logging, set the log only when register
number is zero, the Enable Logging box is selected and the rate is not zero. To tie data logging to
a schedule, select the Enable Logging checkbox and verify the log only when register number
contains a valid local register number with content greater than zero.
Prev and Next buttons: Scrolls through the log file types: Event Log and Data Log. The system
allows for one event log and three data logs.
