Stored Timers resetting after sending Settings

Neeraj Chirmulay 1 month ago in IQANrun updated by Gustav Widén (System support) 3 weeks ago 1

We are noticing that Timer channels (with Store Value set to "Yes") - that we use as hour counters in our machines - are being reset when sending a settings file to that machine. The values that they are being reset to, are the values of the timers from the machine that the settings file is pulled from. 

The timers have respective Digital Parameters (adjust items) that are used to reset them, with a Function Parameter (adjust item) specifying the Reset Value. 


However, when a settings file is sent to a machine, the timers do not reset to 0 or to the "Reset Value" but rather to the value of the timer from machine that the settings file was pulled from. 


Please advise.

This is how the system is designed, stored value are part of the settings. 

If you want to prevent this, you could put those stored timers in an adjust group with a higher access level.
