Recovering Data Files
If the MultiMediaCard is reformatted or erased accidentally
by your computer application, the recorded data file can still
be recovered.
First, ensure the card is installed properly in the card reader.
If the recorded data file is not visible, ensure that:
1.
The card reader is visible in the My Computer
window.
2.
If not, verify that the card reader is installed
correctly and that the connections are secure.
3.
In the Removable Disk drive window, ensure All
Files is selected in the file types field.
Place the MMC back into the GasAlertMax. The detector will
reformat part of the card and the file should now be available.
If the data file (LOGFILE0.CSV), is still not visible, try
formatting the MMC in Windows and then follow the
procedure below.
1.
Remove the MMC from the card reader.
2.
Insert the MMC back into the GasAlertMax and
allow the datalogger to reformat part of the MMC.
3.
Remove the MMC from the datalogger and insert it
back into the card reader.
4.
Double-click on the My Computer icon.
5.
Select the drive letter that corresponds to the card
reader.
6.
The recorded data file (LOGFILE0.CSV) should
now be visible.
Importing the Data File
The data is stored in a file called LOGFILE0.CSV. There are
two ways to display and organize this MMC data file:
1.
By importing the file using the Excel Datalog
Manager (E.D.M.) plug-in. Refer to the E.D.M. Help
manual once E.D.M. is loaded onto the computer;
2.
By importing the data file into a compatible desktop
application.
