A:  The Insight Data Logger Program, in conjunction with few lines of PLC code, will monitor the Shredder Motor current.

System Backup Automatic System Backup The Insight Data Logger program comes with a self back up feature. Upon installation Insight PDS will configure the Insight Data Logger Program to automatically back up the Activity and Config databases to a folder on a secondary physical hard drive on the Data Collections Server computer every Saturday at Midnight. We will inform the site IT on the location of this directory. Variable databases are not automatically backed up.
