Overriding the Collect on Alarm Setting
Emonitor allows you to collect and store a spectrum or time waveform when a
magnitude measurement at the same location is in alarm. You do this by setting
the Collect and store condition in the storage specification for a spectrum
measurement definition to ‘On Magnitude Alarm.’
At some point you may want to collect a spectrum or time waveform even when
the magnitude measurement is not in alarm. For example, you may want to
collect a spectrum the first time you collect data for the machine. Instead of
changing the storage specification, you can Override collect on alarm in the Load
Options dialog.
1. Choose Tools > Load/Unload.
2. Click the Load Options button.
The Load/Unload dialog appears.
3. Check the desired option under Override collect on alarm.
•
Collect spectrum measurements always - Collects all spectrum
measurements, regardless of the settings in the storage specification for
the measurement definition.
• Collect time measurements always - Collects all time waveform
measurements regardless of the settings in the storage specification for
the measurement definition.
4. Click OK. Now you can collect all the spectrum and/or time waveform
measurements in the list.
IMPORTANT You must turn these load options off before loading a list if you want to
collect spectrum and/or time waveform only on alarm.
