Read Address

It is used to set the starting address for sampling the history data.

 

 

Data Length

It is used to set how much words the user wants to sample. The range is

 

 

(Word)

within 1 ~ 13 continuous words. It indicates that max. 13 continuous words

 

 

 

can be sampled.

 

 

 

For example: If the setting value of Data Length is set to 6, it indicates that

 

 

 

there are 6 continuous Words can be sampled.

 

 

Cycle (ms)

It is used to set the sampling cycle time for reading address (how long it is to

 

 

 

read address one time). If the Trigger option is PLC, this option will be

 

 

 

ineffective and the sampling operation should be triggered by the control

 

 

 

block flag. For the settings of the control block, please refer to Chapter 5.

 

 

Sample Number

This option is used with the Auto Stop option. If the Auto Stop option is

 

 

 

selected, HMI will stop recording the data after the numbers of records have

 

 

 

reached the setting value of Sample Number option. If the Auto Stop option

 

 

 

is not selected, when record number of data exceeds the setting value of

 

 

 

Sample Number option, it will delete the records from the first record and

 

 

 

insert the new record again. The record data will be name as “History.dat”

 

 

 

and the user need to use the software, Data Access which is attached in

 

 

 

HMI editing software, to open this file. Data Access will sort and list the

 

 

 

history data by record time automatically.

 

 

Stamp Time and

Use this option to determine if the time and date are also recorded during

 

 

Date

sampling operation.

 

 

Auto Stop

Use this option to determine if HMI stop recording when the max. number of

 

 

 

record data is reached.

 

 

Non-Volatile

Using this option can enable HMI to save sampling data in SRAM. The

 

 

 

capacity for saving history data of DOP-AS series is 120Kbytes, DOP-A

 

 

 

series is 240KBytes and DOP-AE series is 360KBytes. (In some HMI

 

 

 

models, the user can save data in USB flash drive or SMC card and the

 

 

 

capacity for saving history data depends on the capacity of USB flash drive

 

 

 

or SMC card.)

 

 

Export CSV File

The data can be exported to a CSV file for the user to read and edit more

 

 

 

easily in the Windows@ Excel or other text editing tool. It allows the user to

 

 

 

read max. 65536 rows and 256 columns of data in the Windows@ Excel

 

 

 

environment. If the sample number of the sampling data exceeds 65536,

 

 

 

when the user uses Windows@ Excel to open the CSV file, an error

 

 

 

message will display. At this time, the user can use Notepad or other text

 

 

 

editing tool to open the CSV file.

 

 

 

If Auto Stop option is selected also, HMI will stop recording the data after the

 

 

 

numbers of records have reached the setting value of Sample Number

 

 

 

option. If Auto Stop option is not selected, when record number of data

 

 

 

exceeds the setting value of Sample Number option, it will delete the

 

 

 

records from the first record and insert the new record again. But, the data

 

 

 

of the exported CSV file will not be sorted and listed by the record time.

 

 

Trigger

There are Timer and PLC two options. It means that the sampling action is

 

 

 

controlled by the Timer of the HMI or the external controller, i.e. PLC. When

 

 

 

PLC option is selected, it indicates that the trigger bit designated by the

 

 

 

register for sampling history buffer in the control block control the sampling

 

 

 

action. Regarding the settings of the control block, please refer to Chapter 5.

 

 

OK / Cancel

Press OK button to save the data and exit. Press Cancel to exit without

 

 

 

saving data.

 

Delete

Pressing Delete button can delete a history data.

 

Modify

Pressing Modify button can modify a history data.
