GuardII+ Flux Card Operation




                                     NOTE:
                                     When a GuardII+ cannot analyze flux data, it does not necessarily mean
                                     that the monitor is malfunctioning.  There could be signal quality and/or
                                     configuration issues that prevent successful analysis.  Refer to Section 7
                                     for details on how to troubleshoot Flux signal problems.

                        Each load bin in the Archive matrix contains up to 100 measurements that operate in a
                     FIFO (First In First Out) fashion; for example, once 100 measurements have been stored at
                                           st
                     load  point  5,  the  101   load  point  5  measurement  will  overwrite  the  first  load  point  5
                     measurement.

                        Additionally, the first 100 measurements are saved, and then additional measurements
                     are  only  saved  once  per  day  per  load  point;  these  daily  measurements  are  the  first
                     measurements of the day at each load point.  The 100-measurement count is restarted after
                     each download of the flux data or configuration of the flux system in the monitor.
                        When measurements are being saved in the Archive daily, a successful measurement has
                     priority over one that fails to analyze.  For example, if all the measurements fail to analyze for
                     an entire day, then one of those will be saved; however, if all measurements for a day fail to
                     analyze except for one that succeeds, then the one that succeeds gets saved.

                        Consider  the  following  timeline  for  a  GuardII+  flux  system  monitoring  a  round  rotor
