New Data Structure: Redefining Flexibility for Modern Signal Management

Time signals are now stored using a brand-new structure that optimizes both signal processing and data management.

Multiple Parts and Recorder Configuration

Users have the flexibility to configure each time signal to include multiple records, with each record further divided into parts of customizable lengths.

By default, the recorder is configured with a single record and the part length set to 'Auto' as below:

The duration of a part can be configured in the advanced settings as below:

• Single file: Only 1 part per signal.
• Short: Part length is set to 64 seconds.
• Medium: Part length is set to 640 seconds.
• Long: Part length is set to 1920 seconds.
• Auto: The part length depends on the recording mode:
  • "Start to stop" mode: Part length is set to 640 seconds.
  • "Start to time" mode:
    • If duration is longer than 100 hours, then part length is set to 1920 seconds;
    • If duration is between 10 and 100 hours, then part length is set to 640 seconds;
    • If duration is between 5 and 10 hours, then part length is set to 128 seconds;
    • If duration is less than 5 hours, then part length is set to 64 seconds.
  • "Time to stop" mode: For duration of 1024 seconds or longer, the part length is set to 64 seconds. For shorter duration, the first power of 2 greater than duration/16 is selected. A minimum part length is enforced when the total record bandwidth is high. When the combined bandwidth of all recorded inputs exceeds 256 kHz, 512 kHz, or 1024 kHz, the minimum part length is set to 8, 16, or 32 seconds, respectively.
