nTB - Active: Array is properly con

Not Ready: No array is detected or the array is not yet ready

For long recordings, set a value to indicate when the RS4 should close the recording
session and open a new session. This allows the user to access the raw data for parallel
processing before the recording is over
*Keep in mind that the total available storage is based on the amount of free disk space after system allocation.
For example, although the RS4-4 speci
fi
cations list 8 TB of storage space, 7.2 TB are actually available for data
storage (in Striped array mode).
Array Size
^The exact length of each
fi
le will be a multiple of a
fi
xed block size, based on the sampling rate. It will be as close
as possible to the selected setting value (i.e. 1 hr, 4 hr, etc.), but will not be exact. It will be within ~0.1 seconds or
so of the exact desired duration, and there will be no overlap in the data at the beginnings and ends of the
fi
les.
The
fi
les will be named as follows:
If using
to merge the RS4 data with your other tank data, and you are using TTank to read the data,
only the

le chunk will be accessible because it matches the expected naming scheme.
If you are reading the data with the
then these
fi
les are handled for you.
