Use this menu to stop and start recording or change the sample rate on one or more
channels in the current Process Group.
The Primary and Secondary sample rates allow a slow rate to be selected for normal
conditions and a faster rate for abnormal alarm conditions in order to record the maximum
amount of detail. The rates are set during configuration – see Section 4.5.1 (Basic
Configuration selected) or 4.6.1 (Advanced Configuration selected).
Notes.
• Switching between primary & secondary sample rates does not affect the screen interval
on the Chart View.
• When a channel is set to 'Stop' the instantaneous value in the associated indicator is
displayed in red and, after the end of the next sample period, no further samples are
plotted on the associated trace.
• Digital recording channels can only be set to 'Stop' or 'Go'.
• Recording control can also be implemented using digital sources – see Sections 4.5.1
and 4.6.1.
• If Basic configuration is enabled, individual channel selections are greyed out and all
channels in the current process group must be switched simultaneously. If Advanced
Configuration is selected, individual channels can be stopped and started.
If selected, the date of the oldest unarchived data is set to that of the oldest data in the
internal flash memory. This allows all data in the internal memory to be re-archived to
external media.
Note. Ideally, a blank media storage card should be inserted prior to selecting this
function. If the original archive files are still present on the inserted card after Reset
acrchiving, the new, re-archived files are annotated '_1' to distinguish them from the
original archive files, e.g.
original archive file: 10_00 25Feb02 Zone abc.d00
re-archived file: 10_00 25Feb02 Zone abc_1.d00
To re-archive data:
Insert archive media, with sufficient free space, into the instrument.
Select 'Off-line' in the Setup Menu
Select 'Reset archiving' in the Setup Menu
Select 'On-line' in the Setup Menu
Select amount of data to be archived (if >1 hour of data in internal memory)
Places the archive media on-line, starting the archiving process. Any un-archived data is
stored automatically to the removable media. If there is un-archived data more than one
hour old, a selection box may be displayed – see Section 3.7.
Notes.
• When an archive media card/disk is inserted, a dialog box is displayed giving the user the
choice of putting the media on-line or remaining off-line. If no selection is made within 10
seconds, the media card is placed on-line automatically.
• The On-line function is disabled (greyed out) in the Setup Menu when in Historical
Review mode.
Places the archive media off-line. Recording of channel data into internal memory
continues uninterrupted but archiving to the removable media is suspended until it is put
on-line again.
Notes.
• Always set the external media Off-line before removing it.
• The Off-line function is disabled (greyed out) in the Setup Menu when in Historical
Review mode.
