Log Upon Deviation: Clicking the "Log only if Channel 1 change exceeds +/-" box
causes the logger to record the current reading in memory only if it exceeds the
previously reading by the preset amount entered in the numeric field. This logging
exception applies to channel 1 only and the deviation is measured in Raw Data units
where the approximate raw data range is from 0-65535, corresponding to 0-20mA.
To find the actual number of raw data units per engineering unit, use the calibration
numbers in the Analog Setup screen for channel 1 as follows: Raw Data Units per
Engineering Unit = (High Raw – Low Raw) / (High EU – Low EU). For example:
Assume a 15 foot water level sensor has a High EU of 15, a Low EU of zero, a High
Raw of 62256 and a Low Raw of 13104. (62256-13104) / (15-0) = 3277 units/foot.
Thus, if you want to log only when a reading exceeds the previous on by 0.5 feet, set
the deviation to about 1638. Click the numeric field to enter the desired range.
Wrap records: If the "Wrap records
at End of Storage" box is checked,
once the memory is full, the oldest data points will be replaced with the newest.
Thus, the memory block represents only the newest. If this feature is not checked,
the logger will halt recording once the memory is full.
Sample-On-Demand: This feature is not supported by the FL16 data loggers.
Alarm Times: Check the box
associated with each alarm to
enable that feature and enter
the desired start or stop time.
The logger will start at the next
occurrence of the Alarm 1 time and stop at the next occurrence of the Alarm 2 time
after the Alarm 1 timer has expired. Either or both alarms can be enabled
Note: Use care when programming the alarm times. If left enabled, changing
and reprogramming any of the setup parameters will restart the alarm timers
and could cause the logger to stop recording and the loss of important data.
