Setting Up The Data Logger - GE Moisture Image 1 Series Programming Manual

Setting Up the Data
Logger
Advanced Programming
The Series 1 has a data logging feature that enables you to internally
store and view data. Users can log up to 12 parameters on each of six
channels, and update the data at intervals as fast as 5 sec.
A 64-kbyte RAM holds logged data; users can also add an optional
PCMCIA card to store up to 1 Mbyte of data. The meter has a fixed
amount of memory; therefore, the number of parameters you select
and the more frequent the time interval, the shorter the log time. Once
you specify the log parameters, the meter displays a status screen that
lists the number of records, bytes free, bytes used, and the remaining
hours and minutes the log will run before the programmed End Time
(see Figure 3-10).
The meter assigns logged data a record and a header. The record
consists of the date, time, and corresponding logged values. The
header consists of the selected channels, the selected measurement
modes, and the time the log started. It is used to distinguish one log
from another.
The Series 1 can store logs in six slots. Thus, if you wish to create a
new log when all six slots are filled, you must remove one of the
existing logs.
