value. A 0 is considered Off (false); any non-zero number is

change its state. The option to change the state of a switch with a
double-click can be enabled in the Properties window.

the X axis reflects the server clock. Note that a difference in the
server clock and the datalogger clock, coupled with a small time
window for the chart, could result in no data being displayed.
CommStatus Alarm provides a visual and/or audible alarm when
scheduled collection is disabled in the Setup Screen, the schedule is
paused from the Status Monitor, or communication has failed a
sufficient number of times to put the datalogger into a Primary or
Secondary Retry mode (the retry mode used is based on the
Sensitivity property for the component). An audible alarm can be
disabled by right-clicking the component with your mouse.
Time displays the server time, server time at last data collection,
station time, station time of last record stored, or PC time.
SetPoint depicts the selected data value as a numeric value, text
string, or Boolean. A data value can also be set to a new value by
double-clicking the component and entering a new value in the
resulting dialog box.
Gauge displays the selected data value on a gauge.
Table Display displays the data from a datalogger table in a row and
column format.
Value Forwarder reads a value in a datalogger and writes to another
value in that datalogger or a different datalogger. The value that is
written can be the value read, a 0 or –1, or a specified constant.

thermometer.
