Movicon Help on Line - Rel. 11.7.1301
The common Execution properties of a Data Logger or Recipe allow variables to be defined for the print or reset command executions of the database associated to the Data Logger or the Recipe.
To modify the a Data Logger's Execution property, use the Movicon 'Properties Window' that appears with clicking on the object.
To verify the Execution properties' specifications for Data Loggers, please refer to the "Data Logger Execution Properties" paragraph.
To verify the Execution properties' specifications for Recipes, please refer to the "Recipe Execution Properties" paragraph.
The 'Print Variable' selection box allows you to select and assign a variable from the Movicon Real Time DB to print recorded data when it changes from zero to another logical state. The variable will be reset to the 'zero' value by Movicon once the operation has been executed. The printer always refers to the Report specified in the Data Logger's "Report File" property.
For further details on Report management and printing reports, please see the chapter on 'Reports' in this document.
The 'Reset Variables' selection box allows you to select and assign a variable from the Movicon Real Time DB to reset all the values recorded in the table when it changes from zero to another logical state to a logical state different from zero. All the values recorded in the table up to that moment will be cancelled to make way for a new set of records. The variable will then be reset to the 'zero' value by Movicon once the operation has be executed.
The next record command will write data on the first record of the empty table.
A variable from the Movicon RealTime DB can be selected in this field to show information on the status of the DataLogger or Recipe. This information will differ according to the object in question:
DataLogger Object
The variable will indicate the DataLogger's ODBC connection status here. The "0" value indicates that the ODBC connection is working correctly, while the "1" value, or the '0' value indicates that there is a connection error.
Recipe Object
The variable will indicate the status of the query executions and ODBC connections here.
Once a query is executed, Movicon informs logic on the set query's execution state, by notifying the status using the following bits in the set variable:
Bit 0 = 1: query being executed
Bit 1 = 1: BOF
Bit 2 = 1: EOF
Bit 3 = 1: Record Cancelled
Bit 4 = 1: query execution error or ODBC connection error
