(Main Menu > Recording)
This will display the current recording status of the recorder and allow recording control.
Recording Methodology
The X Series recorder uses a new and powerful method for recording. Data is acquired, at
pen specific rates, processed and stored in the large on-board Flash memory. This memory
operates in a cycle mode such that the oldest data is over-written by the newest.
When data is exported from the X Series recorder this does not delete that data from the
recorder but retains it for further or future downloads. With this method the user can export
multiple copies of the same encoded data, giving extreme security.
Storage Media Format
New Compact Flash cards and USB storage keys are pre-formatted for use in the recorder
and PC. If you have a used Compact flash or USB key we recommend you erase it. Format-
ting of Compact Flash cards and USB keys can be done through your PC. The formatting
types accepted by the recorder are FAT, FAT16, TFAT and FAT32. Compact Flash not
available
for the eZtrend QXe.
Start / Stop Recording
The Recording screen will allow the user to manually Start and Stop recording. Select either
the start or stop buttons to activate the function for All pens, a Group of pens (if a group is
defined) or By Pen to identify an individual pen(s).
• Recording: Displays the current pen recording status and the number of pens currently
recording.
• Export Required In: “XXd:XXh:XXm:XXs”. This is the amount of days, hours, minutes
and seconds left until the internal memory buffer starts to be over-written. Exporting
does not remove the data from the recorder but when the internal memory buffer is full
the latest data will start to over-write the oldest data. Available as a Maths expression,
giving the hours until recycling starts, see
“Maths Variable and Function
Tables” on page 272
