3-3-12 Buffering Settings (High-function type only)
Buffering is a function to accumulate measurement data in the sensor head
memory and load them to external control devices.
A maximum of 3,000 measurement data items can be temporarily accumulated in
the built-in memory of the sensor head before loading them to the external control
device, such as a PC. All accumulated data can be loaded by using communication
control over RS-422 or RS-485 or with the Setting and Monitoring Software
HL-G1SMI.
The Setting and Monitoring Software HL-G1SMI (sold separately) makes i
t
p
ossible to accumulate and retrieve measurement data with the operation of the
mouse in the case of using the buffering function. This Intelligent Monitor SIM is
useful for the confirmation or verification of measurement data because i
t
converts the data into CSV data format. CSV data can be used for graphic
display, save, replay of the measurement data, and opened in Excel.
Supplemental remarks
For buffering over RS-422/485,
refer to "4-3 Command List".
• It is necessary to write a program over RS-422/485 to execute buffering.
• Buffering settings cannot be set through the control panel. Make settings with
serial communications commands.
