Memory Consumption for Recorded Data
The amount of memory consumed by recorded scan data varies based on how many
channels are recorded and the number of scan cycles completed. See the information in
Table 4-5 to estimate memory consumption. For front-panel DMM recording, it takes
approximately 400 hours to consume 1 GB of memory.
Table 4-5. Scan Data Memory Usage
Channels Recorded Bytes Used Per Scan
Approximate Scans Cycles to
Reach 1 GB
20 Channels 320 bytes 3,125,000 scans cycles
40 Channels 600 bytes 1,666,000 scans cycles
60 Channels 880 bytes 1,136,000 scan cycles
Open and View Measurement Data on a PC
After a recorded scan is finished, the data file can be transferred to a PC where the results
can be viewed in Microsoft Excel. To open the a data file on a PC:
1. Put the data on the USB drive to be transferred to the PC. If the Data file is on the
internal memory, copy the file to the USB drive. If the scan was set up to record
directly to the USB, the data file is already on the USB drive and no action is
necessary.
2. Remove the USB drive from the front panel and insert it into a USB port on the PC.
3. Open the Start menu and search for the word “Computer” to open the Computer
Drive manager (see image below).
4. Find the USB drive and double-click on it to explore the contents.
5. Navigate to the data folder as follows (see Figure 4-9 for an example of the folder
structure):
a. Double-click on the
fluke folder.
b. Double-click on the
1586A folder.
c. Double-click on the serial number of the Product used to record the data. In the
example,
12345678 is the serial number of the Product.
