4.1 General Information Field
Area with information about the logger, such as Model, Serial Number, Logger Date/Time, PC
Date/Time, firmware version, memory capacity and number of acquisitions stored in memory, etc. In this
field, time is constantly updated while the communication between logger and computer is taking place.
4.2 Acquisitions Field
Interval: Defines the interval between readings: The minimum interval is (1) second and maximum is
(18) hours.
Note: When the type of value logged is maximum or minimum values, the minimum interval is 10
seconds.
In Daily repetitions the user defines the time that daily logs will take place.
Estimated time: In this parameter, the logger informs the user how long it will take to occupy the full
memory, in the conditions set up during configuration.
4.3 Start Loggings Field
Immediately: start as soon as set up is ready and sent (OK) to the logger.
Start via Palm: start with a command sent via PDA, which runs the software Log Chart Palm-OS. For
further information, see PDA User section in this guide.
Date: readings start at predefined date and time.
Via Start/Stop Button: starts and interrupts readings by pressing the Start/Stop button, in the frontal
part of the logger, for two seconds. See Figure 01.
Setpoint: acquisitions start when a temperature setpoint is reached. In this option, the setpoint value is
defined in the Channels field, where the Alarm parameter is replaced by setpoint.
4.4 Stop Loggings Field
Full Memory: readings can be stored up to the full memory capacity is reached.
Don’t stop (Wrap around): readings are continuous, replacing old records with new ones as the
number of readings overpass the memory capacity.
After: the logger stops readings after a certain number of readings.
Date: Readings stop at user-predefined date and time. In case the logger memory capacity is reached
before the date defined, readings are stopped.
4.5 Channels Field
By selecting the “Channels” option, the user is able to choose the individual settings for each
input channel, as Figure below shows.
Unit: Defines the unit of the value measured: ºC or ºF for channel 1 (temperature).
Value: It defines how the value measured will be registered. Options are:
Instantaneous: The value logged will be exactly the value measured at each interval defined.
Measurement is taken at the end of the defined interval. The minimum interval between
measurements is 1 seconds.
