11
Event based data logging
Insight only saves data when data
changes beyond a threshold, but
monitors the system all the time, so an
event is always captured.
The threshold (or delta) value represents,
how much the value of the tag must
change, for the system to log it as an
event.
The delta is fully customizable allowing
for less important data to be sent less
often, if so required.
By setting a low delta, the accuracy
increases, but so does the data
consumption.
Event-based + key frame (eX703 only)
The hybrid approach of event-based and
fixed-time captures allows a stable
insertion of data while keeping the ability
to capture events occurring in-between Key frames logged
reads.
