7.18 Groups
The user can configure up to four groups each with a maximum of six analog channels and six digital
channels. During the configuration, the user specifies whether the channels in a group can only be
viewed, or also stored, and how data recording occurs (memory cycle, storage method).
Grouping channels offers the ability, for example,
• To configure a separate group for each plant,
• To create one group each for different memory cycles (e.g., record pressure values every 125 ms,
temperature values every 2 s) or
• To record special plant statuses in a separate group (e.g., record certain channels with a faster mem-
ory cycle if limit values are exceeded).
NOTE!
To use batch reporting at least one group must be active.
