PC208W, Version 3.0, Instruction Manual A-5
Input Locations. This should be done with the
Block command and the Manual flag in the
Input Location Editor. If results are set to be
sent to the serial I/O port and no Location is
specified for parameter 10, a “ Warning: zero is
an invalid inloc address, Line: xx” warning will
occur. This warning can be ignored.
Instruction 80 Set Active Storage Area
The second parameter of Instruction 80
specifies an Array ID or an Input Location. If
parameter one is set to 1 or 2, then an Array ID
is expected and the cursor will move by default
to the numeric field. If parameter one is set to
3, then an Input Location is expected and the
cursor will move to the label field by default and
the numeric field will display the address of the
Input Location.
EDLOG does detect when results are stored
back in Input Locations. It does not allocate or
name Input Locations based on the instructions
that follow Instruction 80. This should be done
with the Block command and the Manual flag in
the Input Location Editor.
1: Set Active Storage Area (P80)
1: 00 Area Option
2: 0000 Array ID or Loc [ _________ ]
Instruction 81 Rainflow Histogram
This instruction will store results in Input
Locations or Final Storage. Thus, this
instruction can be an Output Processing or a
Processing instruction. Parameter 10 is used to
specify which mode will be used. If an Input
Location is specified, results will be stored
starting at the specified location. In either
mode, output occurs when the Output Flag is
set. Set the Input Location address to 0 to store
results directly in Final Storage. This will result
in a “Warning: zero is an invalid inloc address,
Line: xx” warning which can be ignored.
1: Rainflow Histogram (P81)
1: 1 Reps
2: 0000 Input Location of Input Data
[ _________ ]
3: 0000 Swath (per rep) of Data at
Inloc (1=online)
4: 0000 No. of Mean Bins
5: 0000 No. of Amplitude Bins
6: 0.0 Low Limit of Input Data
7: 0.0 High Limit of Input Data
8: 0.0 Min Distance Between
Peak & Valley
9: 00 Option (AB)
10: 0000 Loc [ _________ ]
EDLOG does not detect when results are stored
in Input Locations. It does not allocate or name
Input Locations other than the location specified
in parameter 10. This should be done with the
Block command and the Manual flag in the
Input Location Editor.
EDLOG does not calculate Final Storage usage
or Specify Final Storage Labels for this
instruction.
Instruction 101 SDM-INT8
The INT8 can be used to make interval or pulse
measurements and store the results in Input
Locations or directly in Final Storage. EDLOG
does not detect when results are stored in Input
Locations. It does not allocate or name Input
Locations other than the location specified in
parameter 7. This should be done with the
Block command and the Manual flag in the
Input Location Editor.
EDLOG does not calculate Final Storage usage
or Specify Final Storage Labels for this
instruction.
1: SDM-INT8 (P101)
1: 00 Address
2: 0000 Input Config: Channels 8,7,6,5
3: 0000 Input Config: Channels 4,3,2,1
4: 0000 Function: Channels 8,7,6,5
5: 0000 Function: Channels 4,3,2,1
6: 0000 Output Options
7: 0000 Loc [ _________ ]
8: 1.0 Offset
9: 0.0 Mult
When results are stored in Final Storage,
parameter 7 may be left at zero. This will result
in a “Warning: zero is an invalid inloc address,
Line: xx” warning which can be ignored.
