1.1 Overview of the DAQLOGGER/DAQLOGGER Client Package 1 Software Construction of DAQLOGGER DAQLOGGER consists of the following 14 software applications. This program is started first and manages the startup of other DAQLOGGER software applications. It also manages multiple projects. • A project refers to the set of DAQLOGGER settings that corresponds to each user or purpose. It contains the settings of all software applications that are described below.
1.1 Overview of the DAQLOGGER/DAQLOGGER Client Package • Data Monitor Data Monitor is started from Software Manager. This application can display the data that have been scanned by the Logging Software and the alarm conditions on the following five types of monitor screens. Each monitor displays tags that have been assigned to the recorder’s channels using Tag Editor by groups that have been assigned using Group Editor.
1.1 Overview of the DAQLOGGER/DAQLOGGER Client Package 1 2 • Software Configurator Software Configurator is started from Software Manager. Software Configurator is used to assign recorder numbers of DAQLOGGER to the recorders that are connected. It is also used to set the configurations of the recorders and communication parameters. DAQLOGGER scans and records the data based on the information specified here. The settings are as follows: • Type of communication (RS-232, RS-422, and Ethernet).
1.1 Overview of the DAQLOGGER/DAQLOGGER Client Package • The original SET mode and SETUP mode information can be • Loaded from the recorder via communications (receive via communications). • Loaded from a file that is stored on a storage medium such as a floppy disk (this is called “file importing”). • Created from scratch. • The settings after they are edited can be • Written to the recorder via communications (transmit via communications).
1.1 Overview of the DAQLOGGER/DAQLOGGER Client Package 1 Before Operation The following items can be specified. • Type of report (hourly, daily, weekly, or monthly), the tags to be reported, and the type of data to be created. • Data to be used to make the report (scan data or record data). • Output destination of the report (file or print) and the output file format (binary or text). • The date or day and time of report generation. In addition, report files (binary) can be displayed on Viewer.
1.1 Overview of the DAQLOGGER/DAQLOGGER Client Package • Control Server The Control Server is started from the Manager software. Using a PC connected via ** Ethernet (remote controller ), you can start a scan, start/stop recording, and start/stop the event processor. For the operating procedure of the Control Server, see section 2.13. ** Remote Controller The DAQLOGGER client package is required for the remote controller. For an overview of the package’s functions, see “DAQLOGGER Client Package” below.
1.1 Overview of the DAQLOGGER/DAQLOGGER Client Package The data display is updated according to the interval (frequency of data retrieval) that is specified by the conditions for connection. Displays the waveform of the retrieved data for each group. You can change the display conditions such as zooming in or out of the time axis and specifying the Y-axis zone to be displayed. • Numeric monitor Before Operation • Trend monitor 1 2 3 Displays the numerical values of the retrieved data for each group.

Restruct.: Merges the files once and then divide the file using new conditions. The extensions for the applicable files are indicated below.
5.2 Merging Measurement Data Files Merges multiple files that match the following conditions and creates a single file. The extension of the output file is .mld. • Data files that have been saved through file division by enabling the file division mode (Data Count, Per Day, Per Hour, or Per Month) during data scanning and recording. • Data files that have been divided through the Division Point mode of the File Utility (excludes fixed time mode).

Changing the system configuration initializes the settings of the SET mode and SETUP mode. Perform changes in the system configuration first. The changes in options are reflected in the “Recorder List” window. Procedure 1.
7.9 1 Setting DARWIN Changing any of the system configurations, will result in initialization of Hardware Configurator settings. Therefore, perform system configuration before making any other settings. If you wish to change the module configuration, see “Changing Module configuration.” 2 3 Selecting Setting Screen Settings screen contents differ depending on whether a DA100, DC100, or DR is the object.
