Buffering Operation; Self-Stop; Buffering Mode - Panasonic HL-C2 Series User Manual

■ Buffering Operation

This function accumulates the data during buffering operation.
Set necessary parameters in advance and start buffering operation.
· The starting of the buffering operation requires the buffering type and the
accumulation amount to be set within the setting range.
· All settings related to buffering cannot be changed during buffering operation.
· Non-buffering status cannot be set by only stopping the buffering operation.

■ Self-stop

This function stops the buffering operation automatically at completion of
accumulation.
When the Self-stop function is set to ON (buffering operation is automatically
stopped), stop input for buffering operation becomes unnecessary. This function is
valid when the buffering mode is set to the continuous mode, trigger mode, or
sample mode. This function is invalid when the timing mode is selected. When
OUT1/OUT2 is set for the buffering type, this function operates immediately after
completion of accumulation for OUT1/OUT2. When OUT1&OUT2 is selected, the
self-stop function operates at completion of accumulation for both OUT1&OUT2.

■ Buffering Mode

Four types of buffering mode can be selected.
"Continuous Mode" is set as a default.
Continuous Mode
· When buffering operation starts, data accumulation to the controller memory also starts.
· Accumulation stops when the accumulation amount has reached the setting value
or when buffering operation stops.
Buffering start
Accumulation of measurement data
Trigger Mode
· When buffering operation starts, the trigger generation is turned to stand-by status.
· The measurement data before and after the trigger point where the trigger is
generated is accumulated into the controller memory.
· Accumulation stops when the accumulation amount has reached the setting value
or when buffering operation stops.
