Description
3.1
Functional description
The function of the data log function is to record the performance of the B3100 and the
amount of the medium that passed the sensor (e.g. flowmeter) with respect to the time and
the date.
There are two different ways to program the data logging function. You can program the
data logging function via the setup menu DATALOG or via the serial communication.
There are also two possibilities to review the logged data. You can review the logged data
on the B3100 themselves or, if installed, via communication throug h t he ex pl os ion pro o f
installed USB-connector and the related PC application. The required USB cable is
available as an accessory (ACE01: USB data logging and configuration cable). The PC
application is available as a free program from our internet download pages.
The recorded data is accessible via the operator menu of the B3100 or via the PC based
data log application and an USB connection up to USB standard 2.0.
3.2
Component information
The data log function is a software application that is a part of the software of the B3100.
The datalog menu has:
• the interval records, to log the interval data;
• the daily records, to log the so called contract hour data;
• the event records, to log the B3100 related events.
3.2.1 The interval records
The interval records are used to log the interval records (user defined).
Each interval record has:
• a sequence number;
• a date/time stamp;
• the flowrate;
• the total;
• the accumulated total.
Blancett B3100 Flow Monitor, Datalogging
Page 8
3.2.2 The daily records
Figure 1: Single daily log (typical)
Figure 2: Dual daily log (typical)
The daily records are used to log the daily records, also known as contract hours (user
defined).
Each daily record has:
• a sequence number;
• a date/time stamp;
• the flowrate;
• the total;
• the accumulated total.
3.2.3 The event records
The event records are used to log the B3100 related events. These events have a
manufacturer defined content.
Each event record has:
• a sequence number;
• a date/time stamp;
• (as applicable) an event type number;
• (as applicable) an event content description.
The event records are used to log events that happen during operation. The logging is done
at the moment an event happens.
4
Operation
The data log function records the performance of the B3100 and the measured medium that
passed the sensor (e.g. flowmeter) with respect to the time and the date. The interval and
daily records are logged as programmed in the setup menu DATALOG.
4.1.1 The interval log
This log is made to record the data once at every user defined moment in time.
The B3100 makes one record, as a snapshot, per programmed interval. When the
maximum amount of records is made, the eldest record is overwritten by the newest record.
4.1.2 The daily log
This log is used to record the data at a pre-determined time in the day, e.g. before or at the
end of a so called contract hour. This function is meant to determine, by hand, the total of
the previous contract hour or to trend the total over a certain period of time. When the
maximum amount of records is made, the eldest record is overwritten by the newest record.
