Click on the << button if you want to change the example
input data to approximate the inputs you are expecting to
measure.
Changing the Logging Interval
To change the logging interval, open the Logging
Window, select the Setup tab and make changes in the
Interval section. Changing the logging interval:
•
Does not usually significantly change a graph of the
data. A very small interval (10 seconds or less) rarely
provides more significant data, especially if input
event data is also being recorded.
•
Does directly impact the number of records stored
(smaller interval means more records are recorded).
•
Does not change the number of times that FlukeView
Forms requests readings from the meter. This is an
internal value based on the type of meter and the
PC’s CPU speed and current performance.
Changing the Input Event Settings
Changing the input event settings allows you to specify
what changes in the input are significant enough to begin
a new input event.
To change event settings, open the Logging Window,
select the Setup tab and make changes in the Events
section.
With Relative Threshold selected under Threshold
method, you specify a percentage change in the readings
that begins a new event. Relative thresholds work well
when signal noise (insignificant changes in the input
signal) is proportional to the expected signal value.
With Fixed Threshold selected under Threshold
method, you specify a fixed-value change in the readings
(in the units of measure that the meter is using) that
begins a new event. Fixed thresholds work well when you
want to capture a significant unit change in the input you
are measuring.
