Logger Settings
Once a new data logger has been created, the user is presented with the above Logger Settings tab. The features in this tab are explained in further detail in the following table.
Item | Description | |||
Logging Model Name | Enter the name of the Data Logging model. You may use alphanumeric characters, Korean alphabets, and special characters as the model name. You cannot use a duplicated model name. | |||
Max Logs | The maximum number of rows for the data logger. If the data logger hits the set maximum value in operation, the data logger continues to operate by discarding the oldest logged value for a new value. | |||
Time Stamp Format | Allows the user to customize the formatting of timestamps for the data logger’s data points. | |||
Start Options | Start Up | Enables the data logger on device start up. | ||
Manual | Enables the data logger on execution of a 'datalog.start(“Insert Logging Model Name”)' command. | |||
Condition | Enables the data logger when the Trigger Tag or address value meets the conditions specified by the Comparison and Value fields. When this option is used, the comparison condition is structured as follows: Trigger Tag, Comparison, Value. Example: For a Trigger Tag “Celsius”, a greater than comparator, and a value of 5, the comparison would be structured as follows: “Celsius” > 5 | |||
Trigger Tag | Tag referenced by the Comparison operator. | |||
Comparison | Allows the user to select from six possible comparators: equal (==), does not equal (!=), greater than (>), greater than or equal to (>=), less than (<), and less than or equal to (<=). | |||
Value | A numerical value or tag to be compared to the Trigger Tag. | |||
Logging Options | Allows the user to modify when a new row is added to the data logger. Note that the data logger must be started before a new row can be added. | |||
Periodic | Adds a row to the data logger at a set interval. Users can adjust this interval using the Hours, Minutes, Seconds, and Milliseconds command. | |||
Tag Value Change | Adds a row to the data logger upon a change in the Trigger Tag's value. | |||
Manual | Adds a row to the data logger upon execution of a ‘datalog.addrow(“Insert Logging Model Name”)' command. | |||
Condition | Adds a row to the data logger when the Trigger Tag or address value meets the conditions specified by the Comparison and Value fields. When this option is used, the comparison condition is structured as follows: Trigger Tag, Comparison, Value. Example: For a Trigger Tag “Celsius”, a greater than comparator, and a value of 5, the comparison would be structured as follows: “Celsius” > 5 | |||

Value | A numerical value or tag to be compared to the Trigger Tag. | |||
Tag List
Allows the user to assign multiple tags to a Data Logging Model. A new tag can be added by clicking the Tag List tab > click Add Tag(s) icon or right-clicking the empty space > click Add Tag(s). The Add Tag(s) window will pop-up, which functions similarly to the Tag Editor.
