Convenient Functions; Capture Start/Stop Operations - GRAPHTEC GL900 Quick Start Manual

GL900 Convenient Functions
The GL900 is provided with various functions that enable it to be used more effectively.
We have selected three of those functions to describe in further detail.
Timer Functions and Trigger Functions to Control Data Capture Start/Stop Operations
Timer functions and trigger functions can be used to control the timing of the start of a
data operation, and the timing of the end of a data capture operation.
Timer Functions
Specify the condition as "Enable data capture from 9AM to 2PM every day".
(1) Press the MENU key to open the "TRIG" menu and then set the timer mode to
"Everyday cycle".
(2) Align the cursor with the start side setting and then press the ENTER key to open
the Everyday Cycle menu.
(3) Align the cursor with the time and then press the ENTER key to open the Numerical
Value Setting screen. Set the numerical value to "09" using the cursor and then press
the ENTER key.
(4) Set the stop side setting in the same way to "14".
This completes the timer settings.
Here we will specify the timer condition as
"Enable data capture from 9AM to 2PM
every day", and the trigger condition as
"Start data capture when the CH1 level
exceeds 0.3V". In the left diagram, the
green bar of the timer trigger information
shows the actual data capture.
(You can see the timer trigger information
in the TRIG menu.)

cycle" or "Every hour cycle", data capture
operation is automatically repeated after
it is started. When the timer mode is set
to the date time setting, data is captured
in one data capture operation.
