Saving data to the CF Card
Transmission of measured data to the PC via communications and saving of measured
data to the CF card in the main module can be carried out simultaneously.
The standard function saves data to the CF card only if communication with the PC
is disconnected during recording by the PC software. With the
Dual Save function,
measured data is saved to the CF card during recording by the PC software.
This function is also available when programming applications with the MX100/DARWIN
API (use in combination with the “Backup”recording command and the “GetData”data
acquisition command).
Note
Under normal functionality, saving of data to the CF card is for backup when communications
are disconnected. The following shows the operation.
