Can PanelView Plus store trend points in memory card

[ckchew666]

Hi,

I notice that the PanelView Plus has memeory slot, something like our pcmcia slot. I'd like to ask if it's possible to store TREND data in that memory card in a nicely tabluated format?

Thx.

Yes, you can. As you can store data in remote PC.
Havent needed/tested yet, but it must work.
That's one of their selling argument.
CF card is needed

same answer as your other thread..

if no control needed, might consider a unit of this type:

other manufactors such Yokogawa (sp?) also makes similar unit.

Careful, the data from PV+ is stored in a binary formay, not "a nicely tabluated format". (It's really intended for use with the PV+ trend). You need to download a utility from Rockwell to convert it to .dbf format.

Go to their knowledge base and search for A21053. There's a further utility to make it more readable in Excel, search for A2728554.
