Data Logging

4.6 Data Logging

The sampler records the time and date that each sample was collected, up to
400 samples. It also records the time and date of up to 24 missed samples.

1.

To access information, the sampler must be in the "Program Halted

"

or

"Program Complete" standby state.

2.

Press

TIME/READ

for two seconds. The display will read "Samples Taken".

3.

To display the time/date for each sample, press

YES

. To advance to the

next sample time/date, press

YES

again–and so forth, until all are given.

4.

To exit this routine, press

NO

. The time and date of any missed samples

are displayed after collected samples.

The sampler memory incorporates the “wrap around” method of data storage.
That is, when the memory becomes full, the oldest stored data (sample
number, time/date) are dropped as new data are received. The data logger
retains the 400 most recent times/dates for the collected samples.
