Time of day
The hour and minute that the file name rolls over.
Duration
The length of time that data will be stored in a file before the file name rolls
over.
File size
The number of Megabytes that will be stored in a file before the file name rolls
over.
Number of Lines
The number of scans that will be placed in the file before the file name rolls
over.
File Size Control also offers several options for renaming the data file, as
described below.
Attach date to file name
Attach the date of the file roll over in _YYYYMMDD (YYYY – Year, MM –
Month, DD – Day) format to the file name.
Attach time to file name
Attach the time of the file roll over in _HHMMSS (HH – Hour, MM – Minute,
SS – Second) format to the file name.
If another file with the same 'rename' name exists or if no Attach option
selected, a _Number is attached to the file. The value for Number is
incremented up to form a file name that does not exist. After renaming the file,
Fluke DAQ creates a new data file with the original data file name.
For example, when the specified file size control criterion is reached, the file
"MyData.csv" is renamed as shown in Table 3-3.
