(Configure > Setup > Edit Setup> General > Batch))
Batch is a firmware option that can be activated from
The Batch function allows the user to segment portions of data for further analysis. Setting
up a batch requires information to identify and control batches of data. Batch data can also
be paused, for viewing, and resumed. A batch can be aborted at any time, if so this will not
register as a batch; a batch is only complete when it has been stopped.
This Batch menu is the setup menu where you can configure all the Batch and Group prop-
erties before starting a batch.
Batch mode has changed to allow concurrent batches, where each batch is associated with
a group, so all pens within Group 1 will belong to the batch that is controlled by Group 1.
Screens can now be set to display groups, in this mode only messages associated with that
group (i.e. pens within that group, or batch messages for that group) will be shown on the
chart.
Remember when you have set up your batch requirements you need to assign pens to the
batch group.
Ctr. Reset button will produce a warning
dialog asking if you want to reset all
counters. When a group is selected then
the counters can be reset by group.

General Batch Properties

• Pause Chart@Finish - Enable this if you require the chart to be paused at the end of
the batch. The chart will restart when another batch is started for that group.
• Start Log @ Start - Enable this if you require logging to start when the batch starts.
Batch logging control – Pen logging can be controlled by batch start and stop, the stop
and start logging can be independently controlled so a batch could start the pens log-
ging but choose not to stop them logging when the batch stops, or start logging inde-
pendently of a batch but have all pens stop logging when a batch stops. Only pens
within the group of the associated batch will be controlled.
