CAUTION

If any settings in the experimental setup change (APD gain, voltage, probe geometry, etc.), it
is strongly recommended that you do a Single Point Calibration to offset these changes. This
includes any gain setting changes or switching between electronics units.

Procedure

1. On the NeoFox Sport, navigate to the Oxygen Sensor menu. This is the first screen that displays

when you power-on the unit.

Note

If there is an SD card with a boot application in one of the device’s SD card slots, the device will
boot to that application. In this case, simply navigate to the root menu and select Oxygen Sensor
to bring up the correct oxygen sensor home screen.

2. Navigate to Sensor Setup | Single Pnt Reset.

3. Place your probe and temperature sensor in your sample and press the Accept button (

).

4. Proceed through the Single Point Reset screens. A message appears to tell you that your single

point reset has completed.

Data Logging / Saving Data

NeoFox Sport provides you with the following functionality for logging/saving data:

 Log data to an SD card
 View the file name of the data log
 Set the data logging interval

Logging Data

The NeoFox Sport allows you to log data to an SD card via the Oxygen Sensor | Sensor Setup | Data
Logging menu. When you select Turn datalog on from this menu, a log file is created on the SD card
and NeoFox Sport begins logging data automatically. The name of this log file is automatically generated
when the data log begins in the format nf_xxx.tsv, where xxx is a 3-digit number for a filename that does
not already exist in the NeoFox directory.

When you select Oxygen Sensor | Sensor Setup | Data Logging | Turn data log off, then the file will be
closed. A new file is created the next time you select Turn data log on.
