24.1.1 What is the Sampling Feature?

This feature samples data from the desired address value of the device/PLC at the designated time and then stores it in the display unit. This is useful for viewing data history.

At the designated time, data from the device/PLC is read in to the display unit.

Data collected by the Sampling feature is called "Sampling Data".

Sampled data can be displayed as a line graph on the screen of the display unit and printed from a printer connected to the display unit. The data can also be saved to a CF Card or USB storage device. You can edit it using general spreadsheet software (such as Microsoft Excel) on the screen because it is saved in CSV format.
