Example: 3 samples per hour. ▪Interval: Enter an interval, that is, how often data collection will be performed. If the data collection is not performed in the defined interval, the event log will be automatically opened to enter an occurrence. E.g.: at every 1 hour with a tolerance of (more, less or more or less) 5 minutes. |
The frequency between collections will not be controlled through a pre-configured frequency, but in the Name field, describe the desired frequency for data collection. E.g.: at every two batches, at every box, at every operator change, among others.
