PEN-DRIVE OPERATIONS
UniRec can perform both, File Read and File Write, operations on the Pen Drive. The File Read Operation facilitates
assigning user defined names to each of the connected Device channels while the File Write operation allows copying the
Process Value records (stored inside the internal memory of UniRec) onto the Pen Drive for subsequent reading in Excel
Sheet. The two file operations are described in detail in the following pages.
File System for Read Operation
UniRec continuously monitors and updates the Process Values (PVs) for each Device channel. The Process Values are
displayed on the front panel 2 Rows LCD display. The Upper Row displays the channel name while the corresponding PV
and measurement Units are shown on the Lower Row.
UniRec supports up to 30 single or dual channel devices. In ‘Device Configuration’ setup mode; the user needs to enter
the Device Number, the Device Type and the Device Communication ID.
UniRec assigns default channel names depending upon the device number assigned by the user (in ‘Device
Configuration’ set-up mode) and the numbers of channels (1 or 2) belonging to the selected device type. Refer following
examples for clarification.

1. Open Microsoft Notepad Application Tool. A blank screen appears.
2. Type the desired name for Channel-1 in the top (first) line and press Enter key.
3. Type the desired name for Channel-2 in the next (second) line and press Enter key.
4. Repeat the procedure for other channels until names for all channels are assigned.
5. Open “File” menu and select “Save” option. In the open pop-up window, select appropriate directory, assign the file
name Set.txt (or only Set) and press “Save” button.
6. Copy the file onto Pen Drive in the main directory (outside of any folders) for subsequent File Read operation by the
UniRec.
Figure 3.1
Notes:
1. All the channel names must be written in the sequence starting with name for channel-1 in the first (top) line.
2. Each channel name must be terminated with Enter key operation to indicate the end of the name and for moving to the next line. An
Enter key operation is required for even the last channel name.
3. Do not leave any line space at the top of the file or between two consecutive channel names.
4. Each channel name must not exceed 16 characters. Any additional characters will be automatically ignored. The 16 characters are
counted from the left-most screen position.
File System for Write Operation
UniRec continuously fetches the measured Process Values and Alarm Status from various device channels.
A set of Process Values along with the corresponding Alarm Status for all channels, stamped with the current Date and
Time, is called a Record. UniRec stores such records in its internal memory at user set time interval, called Recording
Interval. These stored records are then available for downloading to a Pen Drive via the front panel USB connector.
Each of the installed UniRec creates and maintains its own Record-Data file on Pen Drive using a file naming scheme
User Manual
UniRec
7
For channel name assignments, the user can create and save a text document file with the name Set.txt using Microsoft
Notepad Application tool. The file needs to be saved on the Pen Drive in the main directory (outside of any folders).
Follow the guidelines below for creating and/or editing the file (Set.txt) for channel name assignments. Refer Figure 3.1
for example file.

that involves an user assigned identification tag, called Recorder ID. The user can assign any numeric value, from 1 to
127, as Recorder ID to the UniRec for its unique identification. The file created by UniRec for downloading the stored
records is named recN.csv; where N is the Recorder ID assigned to the UniRec. For example; the UniRec with Recorder
ID 5, creates and maintains the file with the name rec5.csv. The records are downloaded to the file on Pen Drive in
Comma Separated Values (CSV) format and thus the file is assigned the extension '.csv'.
Upon selecting the ‘Copy (New)’ or ‘Re-copy (Old)’ operation (explained later) after insertion of the Pen Drive; the UniRec
first searches for any existing file with the name recN.csv (where, N is the Recorder ID assigned to the UniRec). If the file
exists, the UniRec appends the available stored records to the file. If the file does not exist, the UniRec automatically
creates a new file with the name recN.csv (where, N is the Recorder ID assigned to the UniRec) and then downloads the
records.
Back-up File System
It is possible that a file-write operation may be interrupted due to reasons like sudden power-failure or removal (or, loose-
contact) of the Pen Drive, resulting in partial transfer of records. An interrupted file-write operation makes the file unusable
for appending any further records. Also, the partially transferred records in the interrupted file are lost (but are still retained
inside the UniRec’s internal memory). That is, the file on Pen Drive exists with the previous records intact (if any) and
becomes a read-only file.
An interrupted file-write operation event is registered by the UniRec in its internal memory as well as on the Pen Drive that
was being written. Upon resumption of operation, the UniRec prompts for Recovery of the interrupted operation. Upon
selecting the “Recover” operation, the following sequence of steps is executed.
1. A back-up file of the existing interrupted file is created to retain the previous records.
The back-up file is named bN_S.csv; where, 'N' is the Recorder ID and 'S' is the sequential number (1 to 250) assigned
to the back-up file. For example; if the Recorder ID is 5 and there does not exist any previous back-up file, then the
new back-up file is named b5_1.csv. If, however, there exists previous back-up file(s), then 'S' is assigned the lowest
numeric value (in sequential order). For example; if a Pen Drive already contains back-up files – [b5_1.csv, b5_4,csv
and b5_14.csv] – then the new back-up file is named b5_2.csv.
2. The existing interrupted file is deleted.
3. A new file with the same name (e.g. rec5.csv) is created.
4. All the records (including those that were already transferred during the interrupted operation) are downloaded to the
new file.
PEN DRIVE (MEMORY-STICK) OPERATION
The UniRec is provided with a front panel USB port for file read and write operations using Pen Drive.
Pen Drive Checking
Upon inserting the Pen Drive into the USB port, the UniRec responds by displaying the following message on the LCD
screen:
Please Wait....
User Manual
UniRec
8

During this time, the UniRec checks the file format on the Pen Drive and also searches for existence of Set.txt file (file
containing channel names) and any interrupted file-write operation in the previous operation. The message may last for 5
to 60 seconds depending upon the disc size and occupancy percentage.
In case of any error in reading the Pen Drive or if the Pen Drive does not respond for more than 60 seconds, the following
message is displayed:
Device Failure
Ensure proper insertion of the Pen Drive into the USB port and acknowledge the message by pressing front panel ENTER
key. The UniRec repeats the device checking operation. If the error persists; remove the Pen Drive from the port and
acknowledge the message (using ENTER key). The UniRec responds with the following message:
Insert Drive
Acknowledge the message to revert to normal RUN mode operation or insert a new Pen Drive and then acknowledge the
message to continue with file read/write operations.
Select Operation
If the “Pen Drive checking” operation is successful; the UniRec presents one or more of the following options for the next
operation:
Recover
Read Chan Names
Copy (New)
Re-copy (Old)
The option 'Recover' is presented only if the inserted Pen Drive contains an interrupted write-operation file. In this case,
the 'Copy (New)' and 'Re-copy (Old) ' options are not presented.
The 'Read Chan Names' option is presented only if the inserted Pen Drive contains a file with the name Set.txt.
The 'Copy (New)' option is presented only if there are new records available in the internal memory and the 'Recover'
option is not presented.
The 'Re-copy (Old)' option is presented only if there are old records available in the internal memory and the 'Recover'
option is not presented.
Use UP/DOWN keys to select the desired option and then press ENTER key for the execution of the operation.
Recover, Copy & Re-copy Operations (New) (Old)
The ‘Recover', 'Copy (New)' & 'Re-copy (Old)’ options are similar in operations as they all download (copy) records
available in the internal memory onto the inserted Pen Drive. The difference lies in the set of records that is downloaded.
The 'Copy (New)' operation downloads the records that are not yet downloaded even once, that is, “new” records. After
successfully downloading the “new” records, the UniRec retains this set of records as “old” records until next successful
'Copy (New)' operation is executed.
The 'Re-Copy (Old)' operation downloads the set of records that were successfully copied during last 'Copy (New)'
operation and thus retained as “old” records. This feature allows re-gaining the copied records in case of the Pen Drive
failure / malfuncting after copying records or inadvertent deletion of the record file from the Pen Drive.
User Manual
UniRec

The 'Recover' operation copies the records that were being downloaded in the previous 'Copy (New)' or 'Re-copy (Old)'
operation that was interrupted.
Upon selecting one of the above 3 operations, the UniRec opens an existing file or creates a new file for downloading the
records (refer section “File System for Write Operation”).
If there is an error in opening/creating a file or deleting/re-naming a file (while creating back-up file for 'Recover' operation)
or any other errors encountered while downloading the records; the UniRec displays an appropriate error message. The
Upper Row shows the message while the Lower Row shows the numbers of records pending for downloading.
