PLAY

Use the PLAY command to output the selected file to the serial line. If
the data logger module is installed, you can specify an interval to be
outputted.

Data in the output is delimited. This is compatible with most
spreadsheet programs. Before giving the command, set the local date and
time with TIME and DATE commands, if needed.

PLAY [x] [start_date start_time end_date end_time]

where

x

= Number of the data file that will be outputted, range 0 ... 21.

The numbers correspond to the output of the DIR command;
refer to the example on page 124.
Selecting number 0 will output all data files.

start_date = Starting date of the interval to be outputted. Must be given in

the following format: yyyy-mm-dd.

start_time = Starting time of the interval to be outputted. Must be given in

the format hh:mm:ss or h:mm.

end_date

= Ending date of the interval to be outputted. Must be given in

the following format: yyyy-mm-dd.

end_time = Ending time of the interval to be outputted. Must be given in

the format hh:mm:ss or h:mm.

You can use the <ESC> key to interrupt the output listing.

NOTE

Output of large amounts of recorded data can result in huge data files and
take a long time, up to several days for the entire memory of the data
logger at 10 second resolution. To make it easier to process the data it is
recommended to select the largest suitable data interval, and to specify
the start and end times carefully.
