Section 8. Datalogger Program Creation with Edlog

(3) An expression with an @ operator does not have a number after the @;

only a fixed number is allowed immediately after the @ operator.

(4) An expression with an @ operator does not have either a number or label

before the @.

(5) There is nothing between a pair of parentheses (e.g., the expression

contains this “()”).

(6) A number is immediately followed by a label or function without an

operator (e.g., an expression containing “8label” gets this error message).

Floating Point Numbers Limited to 5 Digits

All fixed numbers are limited to five digits not including negative signs and
decimal points.

Function Expected

Letters that are immediately followed by parentheses are assumed to be a
function. If the letters are not on the function list, this error message occurs.

New Line Expected

Indicates one of the following situations:

(1) An expression contains more than one equal sign.

(2) There is no operator between two sets of parentheses.

For Example:

This error message is displayed when a program contains any of these
expressions:

zee=(label1)(label2)

ex=(5)(ARCTAN(data))

eee=(em)(see^2)

These are correct ways of entering the above expressions:

zee=(label1)*(label2)

ex=(5)*(ARCTAN(data))

eee=(em)*(see^2)

(3) There is no operator between a set of parentheses and a number.

For Example:

This error message is displayed when a program contains any of these
expressions:

tee=5(2)

mu=(nu)103

bee=10.52(ef/2)

sigma=-17(RCP(alpha))
