Interval specified on the Acquisition screen of the Logger even when in the same group. Note If you click the Yes button in the synchronization confirmation dialog box when a synchronized file already exists, the message dialog box below opens.
3.1 Loading Data Files Synchronization The Logger of the MXLOGGER or the Integration Monitor of the MX100 Standard Software sends PC’s time information to the MX100 at measurement intervals. The PC’ s time information is received along with the measured data when the data is received from the MX100. When measured data is recorded, the PC time information (the MX100’ s time information is used on the monitor display of the Logger) is also recorded.
3.1 Loading Data Files • • • • • • Synchronization may take time depending on the number of divided files and the number of data points in the divided files. It is recommended that synchronization be performed on a hard disk with adequate free space. Even when synchronization is performed, the files before synchronization (.mxd extension) are not deleted.
3.1 Loading Data Files 1 2 3 Viewer When synchronizing data files that exceed the 5 million point range, the file is used as the start file and succeeding files are joined.
