1. Restructuring of Template DB Database Tree The Data Admin Project Editor creates a new Template DB as a mere list of data cells in a database tree root Such list becomes hard to read for a larger amount of measurements therefore needs to be divided to more branches of the database tree Restructuring of the database tree is performed in the DDS software We are going to perform division of measurements in the Template DB in the further text according to individual measuring cards and within each card we are going to divide the measurements according to measuring channels We have so far defined the measurement from only one card which we designated 6110 1 in a sub project of the Data Loader service Definitions of these measurements are specified in the Idi configuration file of the Data Loader service This file is used as an input for the Data Admin Project Editor which created data cells for the measurements in the Template DB and database connections for them in the adi configuration file We are going to divide the measurements further within one card into three database branches designated Common speed measurement and two channel AB measurements Channel A channel 1 measurements and Channel B channel 2 measurements Opening of Template DB Through item Database Select and Open you can open a table of all available databases Adash Ltd Czech Republic Tel 420 59 6232670 Fax 420 59 6232671 e mail info adash cz For

Data Admin Project Editor Editor is started from the A3716 Setup ADI button Most of the parameters are passed to the editor You have already input these parameters during project creation in the A3716 Setup software their descriptions are mentioned in the A3716 Setup chapter In this software you can set following parameters Limits Because the computers have limitations disc sizes disc speed CPU speed etc and the A3716 system can produce much more data than SQL server can handle there is a option how to input some limitations in the system Online History set a required length of measured data history in the Online DB Unnecessary long history increases Online DB volume and slows down a Data Admin service response which is not desirable Therefore set only as many history hours as you are going to use during a measured data analysis The history makes sense only in case when you run Abnormal TCGs where you require recording of the data before occurrence of an extraordinary event We recommend you set it to one hour Max Normal DB Size set maximum size of normal database If Data Admin detects that normal database reaches the limit creates a new normal database with the same structure This improves the responsiveness of the system Reduction Described in the TCG editor section First reduction at sets when is the first start of the reduction Because the reduction process may take a while this is a way to set
