4.2.3 Breaks in recording
Breaks in recording can be caused by the unit being powered down, by the user entering configuration
mode or when the recorder time is changed manually. In vertical and horizontal trend modes, a line is
drawn across the width/height of the chart to indicate that recording has been interrupted.
On power up, a red line is drawn across the chart. In ‘History’, if messages are enabled the message:
Date Time System power up
is printed on the chart, together with the configuration and security revisions.
On exiting configuration mode, a blue line is drawn on the chart and in ‘History’, if messages are enabled,
the messages:
Date Time Logged out.
Date Time Config Revision: N was N-1 (assuming a configuration change was made)
Date Time Logged in as: Engineer
appear on the chart.
When the instrument time is changed (manually - not through daylight saving action) a green line is
drawn on the chart and in ‘History’, if messages are enabled, the message:
Date Time Time/Date changed
appears on the chart.
