Set this to On to automatically save measured data. To save measured data manually, set
this to Off.
Options Description
On Automatically saves measured data to an SD memory card. Set this to On to
use the media FIFO.
Off Measured data is not saved automatically. Carry out a manual save operation
to save measured data to an SD memory card or USB flash memory (/UH
option).
Media FIFO
Set this to On to use media FIFO.
Options Description
On Enables media FIFO. Constantly retains the most recent data files in an SD
memory card.
Off Disables media FIFO. Replace the SD memory card if the free space on it
drops low.
Note
If you are not using media FIFO, the SD memory card must have adequate free space to store all
the data; otherwise, the GX/GP will not be able to save the data from the internal memory. Replace
the SD memory card before the data in the internal memory is overwritten.
