1.2. Stand-Alone Operation

One way to program the TriLog is to use the keypad and screen (The other way is to
use MultiLab – see page 66, or ImagiProbe – see page 24). The keypad allows us to
set all the parameters for data collection, while the LCD screen displays the setting
values.

Working Modes

TriLog has two working modes. The default mode is Auto ID and the TriLog is in this
mode when turned on for the first time. When using more than 4 sensors (when using
VERNIER sensors, or if you've defined your own sensor), switch to the 8 sensors
mode. You can select the working mode either from MultiLab (see page 71) or from
ImagiProbe (see page 27).
TriLog saves the current mode selection and will automatically open in that mode the
next time you turn TriLog on.

Auto ID

Automatic sensor identification – just plug in the sensors and the TriLog prepares
itself to collect data from these sensors.
While in this mode you can work with up to 4 sensors simultaneously.
