Memory Management
In this panel, you can configure the utilization of the Recorder's memory.
For continuous recordings you can predict exactly how much data will be stored per time.
For triggered recordings however this is totally unpredictable. The purpose of the
memory management is to reserve dedicated memory sizes for dedicated virtual
instruments.
• For Continuous Recordings you can either select the minimum required duration of
the recording or the maximum amount of memory you want to spend (in % of total
memory).
• For Triggered Recordings you can specify the number of individual triggered
recordings to be stored or again the percentage of total memory.
• The Event Recording setting adjusts the limit for the number of entries in the event
log.
• The small arrow-up button left to the memory setting allocates all the remaining free
memory to the selected virtual instrument.
• The Mode selection toggles between linear mode and circular mode. In linear mode
when the amount of reserved memory is reached the respective recording stops. In
circular mode the storage wraps around and begins to overwrite the oldest
measurement data (this way always the most recent data is stored on the Recorder).
If you are not connected to an instrument you can select the size of the memory card
installed in your Recorder with the Memory button.
