Curve recorder settings

In this menu, the following settings can be made:
Parameter selection
You can select the parameter whose signal is to be displayed in the form of a curve in the
curve recorder.
Interpolation (factory setting: No) so that variables that change as a step function can be
better displayed.
● No: Only the measured values are displayed as points, without a connecting line between
the points.
● 1: The measured values are connected with a vertical line.
● 2: The measured values are connected with a line, offset at the center.
Time basis (factory setting: 2 min/figure)
The rate of the signal recording in minutes per figure is set. The value can be changed in
integer multiples of 2. If odd values are entered, the value is rounded up. After changing the
time basis, the recording is started again.
Background recording (factory setting: NO)
● YES: The value recording is also continued if the display screen is exited. When the
screen is entered again, the recorded prehistory is displayed.
● NO: The value recording is stopped when the curve recorder is exited.
Y scale mode (factory setting: Auto), specifies the display of the curve
● Auto: The scaling takes place automatically (making the best possible use of the display
height).
● Manual: The scaling takes place by manually entering the MIN/MAX range limits. If, in this
mode, values that are outside the defined window occur, the limit is automatically
adapted for the display so that actual measured values can always be recorded.

Set date/time

Set date/time (for date stamping of error messages)
In this menu, you set the date and time.
You can also set whether and/or how the AOP and drive unit are to be synchronized.
Synchronization of the AOP with the drive enables error messages to be date- and time-
stamped.
Note
Display format for the time
The drive unit displays the time in parameter r3102 in the UTC format (days/milliseconds
since 01/01/1970).
