Set End of Day, Set Retrieval Times
End of Day
In the G2 Client menu under Main / Setup on the System tab is End of Day. Set End of day
to the time that you want the day to end for reporting purposes. Example: If 3rd shift ends
at 7am and you want to include all of 3rd shift's accumulated totals in the date (day) that 3rd
shift began, set End of Day to 7:00 AM. This will offset the end of the date to end at this
time rather than midnight (12:00 AM).
Retrieval Times
In the G2 Client menu, under Edit / Retrieval Times is the list of times that G2 will log data
automatically. By default G2 has 24 retrieval times, one per hour at the top of the hour.
Logged retrieval times summarize totals in the database for reporting limited by retrieval
times. If you wish to modify the logging frequency of time based totals, add or remove
retrieval times from this screen.
Basic Data Collection
If you do nothing more than add your blenders, set the End of Day and set your Retrieval Times,
G2 will collect the following data:
 Summarized totals based on time intervals, logged at the retrieval time. These reports are
accessible from the Client menu Reports / Material Usage Reports. All Material Usage
reports will identify logged material usage by the hopper number (hopper 1, hopper 2, etc).
 Cycle by Cycle Summary - G2 attempts to collect a summary of every cycle per blender.
Cycle data is stored in the Cycle by Cycle database and can be viewed under the menu
Reports / Cycle Reports. Cycle data is also accessible from View / Trend.
 Activity Logging - G2 collects: G2 to Blender activity, Blender detected activity and Alarms.
This data is accessible from the menu Reports / Activity Logger or the Activity Logger icon
on the right of the Client screen.
