4.3.5 Configuration
Setting up the Flash Memory Card can be done in the Configuration page. From the Home Page Menu click on Configuration to get to the page (see Figure 4.11).
General Description of the Configuration page: There are two general sections “Flash
Card Memory” and “Server”. Flash Card Memory consists of the following titles: Real Time Clock (RTC), Title, Alarm Setup, and Flash Recording. Server consists of Terminal Server and Remote Access.
Title and Flash Recording selections can be editted once by selecting “Activation - StartRecord” and after that, no modification will take place unless recording is stopped (the reason for this is to be compliant with the data logging rules). The remaining parameters can be changed during recording as explained below.
There are several scenarios depending on the state of the Flash Card and the Real Time Clock (RTC):
#1) RTC is not set and Flash Card is empty.
All the fields must be updated exactly according to the indicated format, “Adjust RTC Only” check box must be left unchecked, “Activation” selection must set to “StartRecord” and click the “Update” button. Having done this, it is recommended to select “Configuration” from “Activation” drop down window, click the “Update” button, set the “Activation” to “Status/RTC/Alarm” and click the “Update” button one more time to review/verify that the setup took place as it was intended.
#2) RTC is set, and recording is in progress.
The only possible setups are to update “Date” and “Time” of the Real Time Clock along with checking “Adjust RTC Only” box. Also, alarms can be updated provided that “Activation” is set to “Status/RTC/Alarm”. Otherwise, the recording has to be stopped by selecting “StopRecord” of the “Activation” drop down window prior to modifying the Flash Card setup. An alternative way to stop recording is to push Standby Button (refer to Figure 2.3) of the unit.
#3) RTC is set, recording is stopped, and Flash Card is not empty.

In other words, they are the last specified selection e.g. 1 Day means the last day of the recorded data. Having done the selection, the “Archives_Enable” button must be clicked, which will then change to “Archives_Done” and the data will be retrieved accordingly. Also, the corresponding Start and End dates will reflect the respective time duration e.g. refer to Figure 4.8 which is the last 1 Day, the dates are:
02/20/2004 09:42:10 | to 02/21/2004 09:42:10. |
#4) RTC is not set and the Flash Card is not empty.
