PRINT? Data Logging Query
Returns the status of data logging, as selected with the PRINT command.
0 PRINT 0 is selected (data logging disabled)
1 PRINT 1 is selected (data logging enabled
PRINT_TYPE Set Data Logging Type
Set the destination and condition for data logging. When data logging is enabled
with the PRINT command, the destination and conditions are set with the
PRINT_TYPE command. The <destination< is selected with an integer (0 to 6), and
the <type< is selected with an integer (0 to 2). Internal memory is limited to 100
scans. To extract the data from the internal memory, see the LOG? and LOGGED?
commands. Attempting to use this command to select a memory card as the logging
destination while scanning will cause an Execution Error.
PRINT_TYPE <destination>, <type>
<destination> = 0, 1, 2, ... 6
0 = Log data to printer
1 = Log data to log queue
2 = Log data to log queue and printer
3 = Log data to memory card
4 = Log data to memory card and printer
5 = Log data to memory card and log queue
6 = Log data to memory card, log queue, and printer
<type< = 0, 1 or 2
0 = Record all scans
1 = Record scans if any scanned channel is in alarm
2 = Record scans when any alarm transitions
When the log queue is selected as the destination, all scans area automatically
recorded in the log queue as if type 0 was selected. types 1 and 2 are ignored for
the log queue, but are still executed for other destinations selected (i.e., the printer
and memory card.
The PRINT command does not affect the logging of data (100 scans maximum) to
the internal memory (log queue), which is always active when selected as a
destination (PRINT_TYPE 1,2,5 or 6).
Example: PRINT_TYPE 3,1 [When data logging is enabled (see PRINT command),
send data to the memory card but only if one of the scanned channels is in alarm.]
