memory stick. (See
“Storing Keeper Files” on page 53
.) When you extract the data from the
drive, it will be presented to you in a comma-separated file (
.csv
) that can be opened in Excel.
The format of the data will be as follows:
The
Date
and
Time
represent the time the data was saved to the record. In this case, the
units of the Keeper function were configured to be
GPM
. The fourth column then indicates
the number of gallons pumped during the period ending at the Date and Time indicated. If
you were to configure the Keeper to units of
LPS
, this field would indicate Liters. The
period field indicates the number of minutes the drive was available to run during that
period. The
KWHour
field allows you to determine what energy was supplied to the drive
during the period.

and the clock hour in 24-hour military time for both enable and disable times. The following table
shows both weekday enable functions and the additional weekend function (Saturday and Sunday),
and which parameters can be set for the time frame.
These TOD enable functions allow the drive to operate unattended for long periods of time and to
turn off equipment when not needed, eliminating the need to remember to shut the equipment off.
The drive can also be operated when power costs are generally lower, adding to the overall efficiency
of the application. Over time, this set of functions can result in substantial savings.
It should be noted that in spite of the automation feature, the drive can be manually overridden (to
operate when not enabled, perhaps for maintenance) by using a suitably programmed digital input.
It is also possible to transmit the information that the drive is being overridden, via one of the digital
outputs. Note that the drive must receive a normal RUN command during the enabled period for it
to operate.
