If the user selects Yes, then the gauge automatically:
Ÿ Appends a ‘_1' to the original batch name
Ÿ Opens a new batch - copying all the batch setup and calibration
information
Ÿ The new batch is named as the original batch, with a ‘_2'
For example:
Ÿ A fixed batch is created and named “Component A”.
Ÿ When the batch is full, a new fixed batch ‘Component A_2’ is
created
Ÿ ‘Component A’ becomes ‘Component A_1’
Appending the batch name in this way allows the user to quickly
identify - or link - similar batches together.
Once a fixed batch size batch has been filled, no additional readings
can be added to that batch; a partially completed fixed batch size
batch, however, can be re-opened and completed at a later date.
To continue a batch link, press Batch/Open Existing Batch and
select the last batch in the link. If the batch is full, the gauge will prompt
the user to open a new batch before continuing. If the batch is partially
complete the user can complete the batch before continuing to a new
batch.
When downloading linked batches into ElcoMaster™; the original
batch name will be displayed (Component A in the above example).
Selecting this batch name will download all linked batches into
ElcoMaster™ at the same time. For more information on downloading
batches see page 44.
Note: Once a fixed batch size batch has been created and data has
been stored into the memory, the user cannot rename the batch
name within the gauge. The batch name can be amended using
the ElcoMaster™ software.
