Changing A Sensors Range And Turning A Sensor On Or Off; Ways To Capture Data - Data Harvest EASYSENSE V-Log Reference Manual

EASYSENSE V-Log Reference Manual
The response time of a humidity sensor varies considerably with air circulation; therefore the speed of
reaction to change in humidity will be delayed by V-Logs plastic case.
The Pressure sensor is used to measure barometric pressure or altitude in meters above sea level.

For barometric pressure readings use either the kPascals range (85 to 110 kPa) or its equivalent in
millibar (850 to 1100 mbar) or inches of mercury (23 to 33 inHg)

For altitude in meters above sea level use either the -200 to 1,000 m, -500 to 5,000 m or -500 to
10,000 m range.
The average pressure exerted at sea level by the atmosphere in Britain is 101.325 kPa (1 atmosphere);
the equivalent values are 29.92 inches of mercury (at 0˚C) or 1013 millibar.

Changing a sensors range and turning a sensor on or off

Turning a sensor ON or OFF the display
V-Log 8's built-in sensors can be switched On or Off the display.
With the cursor pointing at Turn Off / On press enter
from Off to On or vice versa.
Select to return to the Meters window.
Note: If you change a sensor's range or turn it on/off via the logger while connected to a computer, it may be necessary
to select New in the software for these changes to be detected.

Ways to capture data

There are different ways that V-Log can be used to collect data.
1. As a stand-alone instrument: V-Log is used to display, collect and store data while disconnected
from the computer i.e.
a. Display readings on its LCD screen (but not stored) using Meter mode.
b. Display, collect and store data using V-Log's logging menu options e.g. Pictogram,
EasyLog, Snapshot, Timing and Counting.
The data collected is stored in V-Log's memory to either be reviewed on V-Log's screen or
retrieved to the EasySense software on a computer.
Up to 255 sets of data can be stored in V-Log's memory.
