2.8.3.4 DataLog flow direction settings
Hourly Log and Daily Log can be configured with the following flow direction settings:
● Forward (Default)
● Reverse
● Bidirectional
The DataLog will only collect flow data for the flow direction for which it was configured. If
the flow was below "Min. VOG for warnings" or flow in the opposite direction, the FlowTime
will be 0%.
2.8.3.5 DataLog storage cycle
Hourly Log and Daily Log can be configured to save entries in a storage cycle of: 3 min, 5
min, 15 min, 30 min, 1 hour, 12 hours or 24 hours. If a DataLog is set to a Storage Cycle of
12 or 24 hours, then the accounting hour takes effect.
2.8.3.6 DataLog accounting hour
For all DataLogs configured for a storage cycle of 24 hours, the accounting hour sets the
hour of the day, at which an entry is saved. For all DataLogs configured for a storage cycle
of 12 hours, entries are saved at the time specified in the accounting hour and then again
12 hours later.
2.8.3.7 Distribution of FRAM capacity for DataLogs
The FRAM capacity for Hourly Log and Daily Log can be changed with the slider on the right
side of the DataLogs Configuration tab (
pg. 157, Figure 76).
2.8.3.8 Types of datasets stored in the DataLogs
Hourly Log and Daily Log can be configured to store one of the following type of dataset:
● Diagnostic Values (
Table 11)
● Volume Counters (
Table 12)
● Standard Volume Counters (
Table 13)
● Mass Flow Counters (
Table 14)
A DataLog configured for bidirectional flow will average all flow data over the
configured storage cycle, independently of the actual flow direction. If the flow
direction changed in the middle of the storage cycle, AvgVOG may show as "0".
