Saving and Replaying Data Using an SD Memory Card
Saving and Replaying Measured Data
The recorder can save measured data to an SD memory card. If recording on chart paper is
hindered for some reason such as a paper jam, measured data can be replayed using the
data saved on the SD memory card.

Saving Measured Data to an SD Memory Card
The recorder can start and stop saving data to an SD memory card in sync with the starting
and stopping of recording. You can also start and stop saving data using keys whenever
necessary.
Replaying Measured Data from an SD Memory Card
On dot models, measured data can be replayed from an SD memory card on chart paper.
Replay is possible on a recorder that was used for measurement or a recorder of the same
model with equivalent or more functions (see “Recorders That Can Replay Data” on page
10).
To replay data, you set the SD memory card in the recorder, specify the range to replay, and
start. The recorder does not measure while replaying data.
In addition, as with the pen model described below, the measured data saved in an SD
memory card can be handled in Universal Viewer.
On pen models, you can use YOKOGAWA’s Universal Viewer to show the measured data
saved in an SD memory card on the display for verification and printing purposes.
You can download Universal Viewer and its manual from the following URL.

Saving and Loading Setup Data
You can save recorder setup data to an SD memory card. Such data can be edited using
the RXA10 Configuration Software. Moreover, the setup data in the SD memory card can be
loaded and applied to recorders.
