5 Configuration → Q.gate and Q.pac settings
Connect the time signal directly on all Test Controllers to the
digital IOs (plug terminal 2, connections 9 and 10; refer to
Section 4.4.2, page 32). Depending on the output signal,
specify AFNOR via IOs or IRIG B003/B005 via IOs for
Set-
tings > Synchronization > Sync. protocol settings for al
l
Test Controllers.
3. Synchronization of several Q.gates or Q.pac
Test Controllers
through SNTP (without sync line)
On all Test Controllers specify On for Host inte
rface >
SNTP > SNTP mode as well as the Server address (IP
address of the time server).
5.8.3.4 Ring buffers
With Q.gate and Q.pac a ring buffer is available in each case.
When reading data from the buffer, all the (new) data are
retrieved which are present in the buffer. With the maximum buf-
fer size (16 Mbyte is available) the transfer may take some time.
Reduce the buffer if da
ta are retrieved from the buffer only spo-
radically or not much data is involved.
5.8.4 Storage settings (only Q.pac)
With Q.pac you can set up several data stores, but with active
PAC functionality only a maximum of two. For the individual data
stores specify the values which are to be recorded in these buf-
fers and with which timing pattern. F
or example, you can record
only every 100th value. The file names are automatically formed
from the memory number and date/time.
When a USB stick is inserted, the data written into the data
stor
es are automatically transferred to the stick and, after suc-
cessful transfer, deleted in th
e Test Controller.
5.8.5 System variable
The system variable created in the default setting for the time or
the cycle counter (Cyclecounter) must not be changed.
In the System Variables section specify further time variables if
you would like to use time formats other than in the default sys-
tem time. Context menu for system variables Add new variable
> ABSDA
TETIME. After a double click on the variable and a fur-
ther click on For
mula you can then select other formats (Fig. 5-
13).
