Collecting Data with the
Enpac Ex

Why does the Enpac Ex seem to skip measurements at a location?

Emonitor and the

Enpac Ex

are designed to make collecting data as quick and

efficient as possible. To shorten data collection time, Emonitor combines two or
more measurement definitions at a location into a single measurement. This allows
you to collect two or more measurements by pressing a single key on the

Enpac

Ex

.

Why won’t the Enpac Ex combine magnitude and phase or manual
entry measurements at a location?

Two exceptions exist for combining measurement definitions. Emonitor and
the Enpac Ex cannot combine magnitude + phase measurements with any
other measurements. Nor can they combine manual entry measurements with
any other measurements. Both types remain as individual measurements when
loaded into the Enpac Ex.

What do the USER (eus) and User (s) units mean?

Emonitor allows you to create measurement definitions for many different
units. Some of these units are not directly supported in the Enpac Ex. When
you display a measurement definition in the Enpac Ex with an unsupported
unit, the Enpac Ex chooses the USER units. You can still collect and store data
using unsupported units.

USERS (s) - Appears for unsupported units in a process measurement

(manual entry using the numeric key pad).

USER (eus) - Appears for unsupported units in all other measurement

types.

TIP

Emonitor indicates when it completes the loading or
unloading process.
