Fail-safe mode
The "fail-safe mode" is suitable when scanning is purely software-based; it
merely ensures, in the event of computer failure, that scanning will continue on
an internal cyclic basis. In this mode the cycle programmed in the device must
be longer than that needed for software scanning. Software scanning keeps
resetting the internal cycle with the effect that this cycle is only actually used
as and when software scanning fails; (in Win-Control "safe initialization" must
be switched off).
The internal cycle is started as and when the Win-Control software starts; it
may also have been started previously. When scanning with the internal cycle
no data is output to the interface. In order to record data the memory must
have been activated.
In the Mode function program the variant Fail-safe :
12.2.6 Memory output
The contents of the internal measured value
memory can be output completely or in excerpts
via the serial interface. With each output any
one of the three known output formats may be
used "list", "columns", or "table".
The option to specify partial ranges is available
as it is possible to set the start and end time of
measurements and also possible to select the
number of corresponding identified measure-
ments.
With external memory cards (see
12.2.1) there is only one option avail-
able, namely output in table mode of
all the measured data contained in the file most recently used. For
this purpose use only the
function in the
The most sensible approach is to remove the memory card and copy
the files via a USB card reader directly onto the PC. These can then
be imported either into MS-Excel or into Win-Control (as of V.4.9).
