The time span between two exports can be selected: hourly, daily, weekly or monthly. At the beginning of the new interval plus a possible data safety clearance, the report is created over the last interval. The beginning and the end of the time window can not be changed. For example, for a monthly interval, it is not possible to choose the time window from mid-month 1 to mid-month 2; It is always from the beginning to the end of the monthData Safety Clearance
The time of data export is delayed by the Data Safety Clearance to allow reloading of non-directly transmitted values (e.g., due to a connection break to the measurement modules)
For example, if a 3-day Data Safety Clearance is set for a scheduled monthly export, the automatic export does not start in the early morning of the first day of a month for the previous month, but 3 days later, this means in the early morning of the 4th day of the new month. Thus, missing values of the previous month can be reloaded during these three days and would thus also be included in the export.Unit
Depending on the selected interval, the unit for the Data Safety Clearance is hours, days or months
