VI.
Software Compatibility
Global Water offers various software packages which are compatible with most of
our family of data loggers, allowing them to be used in a variety of applications.
The software provided with this data logger is titled "Global Flow Monitor". Any of
Global Water's FL16 and WL16 Loggers are compatible with this software with one
limitation. The first channel is used to calculate flow and must be a standard
unit of level: "Feet, Inches, Meters or cm". Flow is calculated based on the water
level and it is important to have this well defined.
Starting the software with units other than Feet, Inches, Meters or cm programmed
into channel one will generate various warning messages and certain features will
not function. The unit and calibration information can be changed in the setup menu
as described later in this manual. If a data logger is not compatible with this software
package an error message will appear informing you with the problem. To date, the
only standard Global Water product which is not compatible with the Global Flow
Monitor software is the GL500 data logger. Products with two analog input channels
plus battery voltage monitor (regardless of pulse channels) are compatible.
VII. System Requirements:
Desktop or Laptop computer with:
1) Windows 98, ME, 2000, XP Vista or Windows 7 Operating Systems
2) CDROM Drive
3) RS-232 COM Port (for FL16S) or USB Port (for FL16U)
Note that the software provided with the FL16 data loggers is for running on
desktop and laptop computers only. PDA software is not currently available.
