Data Storage Options
The Data Storage Options dialog is used to manage the data storage functions of the
EFLTrak software. With the Auto-Save Data on Stop option checked, the software will
automatically save the EFL data when the EFLTrak software is stopped. This is useful
if it is necessary to go back and look at data from previous production runs and
eliminates the need for the operator to remember to save production EFL data.
When checked, the Start new Run on Buffer Length Reset option will configure the
EFLTrak software to automatically start a new data file any time the buffer gauge
length is reset either by an external gauge length reset or from the EFLTrak reset
length button. See the LaserSpeed Instruction Handbook for more information on
wiring and configuring the LaserSpeed gauge for an external length reset.
The Minimum Length for Valid Run setup configures the minimum cable length that
must be produced to indicate a valid product run. A setting of zero disables this
feature. If EFLTrak is stopped or if the buffer gauge length is reset (with the Start new
Run on Buffer Length Reset option enabled) prior to the cable length produced
reaching the minimum length specified by this setting, the EFL data will not be stored
by EFLTrak and the run will be restarted.
All valid EFL data will be stored to a file made up from the specified File Path(s),
Family Name, and Run Number. Up to 3 separate file paths can be specified including
paths to network hard drives, USB flash drives, and internal/external hard drives
attached to the EFLTrak PC. File paths can be added by clicking on the folder button
and browsing to the desired save folder. Destination file paths for saving EFL data
can be individually enabled and/or disabled by checking or unchecking the box next to
the file path. The active data files are listed in the Data File(s) list under the run
number setup. The run number is automatically incremented each time an EFL data
file is saved. This will prevent EFLTrak from overwriting previously stored data and
requires no operator intervention to administer.
