9.1.1.1 Adding Tasks

To add a task that will run based on a data collection event for a datalogger,

select the datalogger by clicking it. Then click the Add After button or select

Add After from the Edit menu. A new task will appear attached to the selected

datalogger. You can then set up the conditions for the task with the options on

the right side of the window.

You can create complex combinations of tasks by linking tasks to other tasks

or multiple tasks to one datalogger. A task linked to another task has no start

options but will execute the specified action following the completion of the

parent task. Multiple tasks linked to a datalogger will execute based on the

conditions specified for the start of the task. This allows one task to be run

after successful data collection and another if data collection fails.

To add a scheduled task, click the Add Scheduled button or select Add

Scheduled from the Edit menu. A new task will be added to the list of tasks

below the list of dataloggers. You can then set up the conditions for the task

with the options on the right side of the window.

To delete a task click to highlight it and click Delete or select Delete from the

Edit menu. The selected task will be deleted. If there are any tasks linked to

the task, they will move up and take the place of the deleted task.
