5.2 Setting up Channel Information

In the lower portion of the Levelogger Settings window is the window for setting
channel parameters. The software will detect the available channels when the
Levelogger settings are read.
For Channel 1: 'Level', you can set the following parameters:
• Identification describes the measurement parameter of the channel and
has already been configured as 'level'. The level channel monitors water
column equivalent pressure. The Identification field will be the data
column heading and graph line name when viewing the data.
The Identification is limited to 32 characters.
• Units refers to the channel's units of measurement. There are three units
of measure available for the user to select: cm, m or ft. When the user
changes the unit, the value of the range and altitude will change
according to the Unit Conversion formula. Note that when a metric unit
is used, the unit of altitude is meters. When feet are the level channel
units, feet are the units of altitude.
• Offset refers to an offset correction, such as the distance between the tip
of the Levelogger and the monitoring well cap or static water level. It is
recommended that the value of 0.00 be used for offset as this keeps all
subsequent readings relative to the tip of the Levelogger. The offset
range for Levelogger Gold, the Levelogger Junior and Barologger Gold
units is -3280 to 16400 ft or -1000 m to 5000 m.
• Range refers to the full scale water fluctuation range capability of your
particular Levelogger model. The full scale reading of any Levelogger
Gold unit is based on its metric range. Therefore, the Levelogger Gold,
which is available in F15 (M5), F30 (M10), F60 (M20), F100 (M30) and
F300 (M100) ranges have actual water level ranges of 16.40 ft
(5 meters), 32.80 ft (10 meters), 65.60 ft (20 meters), 98.40 ft
(30 meters) and 328.0 ft (100 meters), respectively.
For Channel 2: 'Temperature', includes the following parameters:
Identification and Units, Reference and Range
• The Temperature channel has been pre-configured by Solinst in °C and
cannot be changed.
