USING THE SITE LIST FOR CAPTURE, LOG AND ADD FILES
The Site List is accessed through the Setup YSI 610 menu.
From the YSI 610 Main menu select
Setup YSI 610, and then select Setup Site
List. If no sites have been entered, “make
NEW entry” appears. To modify an
existing list, select an existing name, press
Enter and choose from the pop-up menu.
To enter a new site, choose Insert. Type in
“spillway” and press Enter to add to the
list.
By typing information after “Site:”, you may
further describe your site. This will not
appear in the file name list. The information
typed under “Site” only appears in the
header information during review of files
using the YSI 610 or YSI software. No
entry is required under “Site” for Add,
Capture and Log functions. A numeric value
is required if the Mark function is used.
The Site List can be kept in any order. It is suggested that you arrange it in the order that
you visit your sites. Making an entry on the Site List does not create a file, it only stores a
file name for future use. The file name will not appear in the Site List until data is stored
in the file.
There are different kinds of files for each of the three types of storage: Add, Capture and
Log. The file type is fixed after the first set of readings is stored to the file. If you decide
to use more than one type of storage, then you might want to make that clear in the file
name itself by adding “c”, “a”, or “l” as a suffix to the file name.
SECTION 4 LOGGING
Logging refers to the collection of a set of readings at regular intervals. There are two
different applications of the YSI 610 related to logging.
