Press this key to access the Data
Log Items sub-menu, which provides
keys for fifteen items that can be
individually selected for logging. By
default, both the bucket and jacket
temperatures are logged. All records
are date and time stamped. The most
commonly helpful items to log are:
D0 - Corrected calorimeter drift rate.
Tsum - Accumulated temperature
rise.
T1 - Extrapolated temperature rise.
C0 - Temperature conversion counter

Data Log Format:
Toggles between Text Format and Data Format (csv). Data is either logged with the
supporting tag information (text) or in a comma separated variable (csv) data format as
selected by the user. The text setting is useful if the data log destination is a printer. The
data (csv) format is especially useful if the data is ultimately transferred to another
computer for post processing, graphing etc. The log file can be transferred to another
computer via FTP.

heating / cooling performance of the calorimeter.
