
When the current file for a channel does not exist on the
media card.

When the maximum size (5Mb) of the existing data file is
exceeded.

When the recording channel's configuration is changed.

When the daylight saving period starts or ends.
Note. The instrument's internal clock can be configured to
adjust automatically at the start and end of Daylight Saving
