The PCS stores data of the truck load cycles. The data can be transferred to a personal computer for analysis of the data using VIMSPC. 2200 truck loads can be stored in the control. Any additional loading cycles that occur before a download of the data will cause the oldest stored data to be deleted. The payload memory events will remain active until the data is downloaded to a PC. If the onboard memory is full, the latest data will be stored continuously. The oldest data will be permanently erased.PCS will log events in order to instruct the operator to download the data. Details for each event are shown below.
