2.4.3 DataLogs
1
For firmware version 3.4.03 and higher, the FLOWSIC600 provides two DataLogs (Hourly
Log and Daily Log). They save averaged measured values and are stored in the SPU‘s non-
volatile memory (FRAM). All data can be downloaded and exported to Excel files with
MEPAFLOW600 CBM (
pg. 97, 5.4.2.1.).
2.4.3.1 Hourly Log
The Hourly Log logs hourly diagnostic values by default (dataset type "Diagnostic
Values",
pg. 50, Table 11) for the forward flow. As long as the flow is valid and the VOG is
above Vmin all diagnostic and flow values are averaged over one hour and saved every full
hour. The Hourly Log stores these values for more than a month (38 days) by default. They
are then overwritten with new values.
2.4.3.2 Daily Log
The Daily Log logs the daily volume counter values by default (dataset type "Volume Coun-
ters"
pg. 50, Table 12) for the forward flow. All flow values are averaged over one day and
saved at the (configurable) Accounting Hour (
2.8.3.6). The Daily Log stores these values
for approximately 2 years by default (1 year and 361 days). They are then overwritten with
new values.
DataLog Storage Cycle
Hourly Log and Daily Log can be configured to save entries in a storage cycle of: 3 min, 5
min, 15 min, 30 min, 1 hour, 12 hours or 24 hours.
If a DataLog is set to a Storage cycle of 12 or 24 hours, the accounting hour takes effect.
2.4.3.3 DataLog storage behavior
Hourly Log and Daily Log can be configured for the following storage behavior:
● Overflow (Default)
● Stopping
2.4.3.4 Types of datasets stored in the DataLogs
Hourly Log and Daily Log can be configured to store one of the following type of dataset:
● Diagnosewerte
● Volumenzähler
● Standardvolumenzähler
● Massenstromzähler
1 This feature may be deactivated. Please contact your SICK representative.
The following sections describe the default configuration of the DataLogs. The
DataLogs can be configured to best suit your application
pg. 75, 4.7.2.2.
Storage Behavior "Stopping"
If a DataLog is configured with the storage behavior "Stopping", a warning will
be shown in the Meter Status Table when the DataLog is full. See
pg. 90,
5.2.3.
