 The CSV files for [counter value] are updated once per minute (may fluctuate dependingon network status), and will not update every time there is a status change on the signal
tower.
 For RS-232C data (ASCII character), control codes (0x00 - 0x1F, 0x7F) are replaced withspaces (0x20).

8.2.5 About creating and dividing CSV files
When are files created?

When clicking [Start data collection].
When the WDT recognizes a change in signal tower status.

When conditions for file division is met, and the WDT recognizes
a change in signal tower status.
For information on file names when creating and dividing files, refer to ☞ section「8.2.2 CSV file
name」.
When are files divided?

CAUTION Even when conditions for file division are met, if the WDT does not recognize a change insignal tower status, a new CSV file will not be created.
 When files are split, the last line of signal tower information from the previous file isrecorded at the beginning of the new file.
 While collecting data, do not open or delete the CSV file. Either make a copy of the file foruse, or wait until data collection is complete.
