Stop Subsave
This trigger action stops background recordings already started by the Start Subsave trigger. If several background recordings (maximum 5) are already running, the oldest background recording is stopped first by a corresponding event and automatically saved in the specified path as an .svdx file. The generated file name consists of the name of the Scope in the basic configuration and an ID composed of the date and time, in alphanumeric order.
The Auto Delete functions are a special feature. This enhances storage space management on the target system. Automatically saved .svdx files can be deleted from the folder after a certain number of .svdx files has been reached, or the oldest files can be deleted after a specified time.
Trigger Group
Color | Here you can specify the color for marking the event in the chart. |
Connected Charts | If the markings are not to be displayed in every chart of the configuration, charts for which the markings are displayed can be selected here. Each chart is automatically added when it is created. |
Connected Charts subsave only | In the subsave, only the charts that are connected in this trigger group are added. The acquisitions that are not used in the selected charts are also not saved. |
Enabled | The selected trigger group can be switched on and off here. |
Post-Trigger | Here you can set a time in the format dd:HH:mm:ss for the recording to continue after the trigger event has occurred. |
Pre-Trigger | In the format dd:HH:mm:ss the minimum time that must elapse before the trigger event can be set. |
Save Path | Here you can specify the path for the svdx files to be saved. |

Trigger Category | Predefined categories are available for the trigger markers. These are inserted with a symbol and a default color. Alert Error Warning Info The "Text" option can be used to enter free text. This text is then displayed instead of a symbol. The "Custom Picture" or "CustomFolder" option can be used to select custom symbols or small images. |
Trigger Image Size | Here you can enter the image size. The larger the value, the smaller the chart area. |

Visible | Here you can set whether the event should also be visibly marked in the data stream. |
Visible Trigger Release Capacity | This setting allows predefined values for simultaneous display of events during recording, up to the value set in "Trigger Release Capacity". |
Auto Delete
Auto Delete mode | Here you can set the mode in which the Auto Delete function should run. If set to "Disabled", no files will be deleted. "Capacity“ deletes the oldest file in the folder if more than the number of files specified in "Delete more than" has been saved. If set to "OlderThan", all files older than the time specified in "Delete older than" will be deleted. The option "CapacityOrOlderThan" is a combination of "Capacity" and "OlderThan". That is, files are deleted when the conditions for either option are met. |
Delete more than | This option defines when and with how many created files the oldest is to be deleted. The option is only active as long as "Capacity" or "CapacityOrOlderThan" is selected in "Auto Delete". |
Delete older than | This option defines the number of seconds after which a file is to be deleted with Auto Delete. The option is only active as long as "OlderThan" or "CapacityOrOlderThan" is selected in "Auto Delete". |
