Usage Tips
How Much Datalogged Information Can be Stored?
Each Sixlog file is allocated a fixed amount of memory. Each record typically contains a time stamp (4 bytes), analog values (2 bytes each), and
discrete values (8 per byte). The size of the record is automatically computed and displayed for you by the Sixlog software. The overall storage time
(until the oldest data in a full file is overwritten by new data) is computed as:
Longest storage = (file size) x (capture interval) / (bytes per record)
Example:
16 analog values plus a time stamp ( 32 + 4 = 36 bytes) are logged every 5 minutes into a 400K file.
Oldest data = 400,000 (approx) x 5 minutes / 36 bytes/record = 55,555 Minutes (38 days)
By default, the Micro-VersaTRAK µIPm has more than 400K for datalogging.
Adding I/O to a Micro-VersaTRAK µIPm Industrial RTU
Any combination of EtherTRAK and RemoteTRAK I/O modules can be connected to a Micro-VersaTRAK µIPm. A single Micro-VersaTRAK µIPm
supports up to 256 EtherTRAK and / or RemoteTRAK I/O.
Why Micro-VersaTRAK µIPm Instead of other Sixnet Controllers?
Micro-VersaTRAK µIPm offers built-in I/O, Ethernet and up to four serial ports.
The embedded LINUX operating system in the Micro-VersaTRAK µIPm offers greater programming flexibility and performance than the legacy
VersaTRAK / Mini-VersaTRAK industrial RTUs.
