Interval: It determines the interval between readings in the hh:mm:ss format.
New data is stored in the logger memory after each time interval.
External Battery Switch time: Defines an interval of time preceding each measurement for turning on
the power supply of external devices (4-20 mA transmitters, for
example). This feature is intended for saving power when the external
power supply is battery powered and the logging interval is long. This
signal is disabled when a measurement is completed. This time is
limited to 10 seconds and must be less than half of the interval
between readings.
Estimated time: It informs the estimated time for the accomplishment of programmed
readings based on the logging “Interval” and on the number of
programmed readings.
Daily Repetition: Allows loggings to be repeated everyday, for example, recording data
from 8 AM to 5 PM day after day. The start and stop times are defined
in the fields “Start time” and “Stop time.”
