Hioki LR8431-20 - Appendix 6: Maximum Recordable Time

Appendix 6 Maximum Recordable Time
A11
Appendix
When saving waveform files in the form of binary data to either the instrument's internal
memory or the CF card or USB flash drive, maximum recording times are as follows.
The indicated times apply when recording all
ch
annels. Maximum recording time is
inversely proportional to the number of recording channels.
Because the header portion of waveform files is not included
in these calculations,
actual times should be expected to be about 90% of the listed values.
Day values beyond 365 are not shown in the table.
When saving data in text format (CSV), the maximum recording time is reduced to 1/
10 of
the value
indicated in the table or less.
