MultiLab

Symptom
MultiLab was unable to connect
to TriLink.
I downloaded "unexpected" data.
While running with an active
trigger, TriLink does not complete
the data logging.
Cause of problem
•
The calibration screw is of high-
resolution type and has 15 turns. Try to
continue turning the screw, or change
the direction of rotation.
•
The internal 3V disk battery is dead.
•
Charge TriLink completely (12 hours)
•
Use TriLink while connected to a wall
outlet
•
If the sensor is not completely inserted,
the Auto ID function cannot properly
identify the sensor. Disconnect the
sensor and firmly reconnect.
•
Use 8 sensors mode
• TriLink has disconnected from the
computer but continues to run
independently as a data logger.
•
Press the Run/Stop button on TriLink.
(LCD screen on TriLink shows changing
data values.)
•
Reconnect TriLink to the computer
Cause of problem
•
TriLink is turned off.
• The communication cable is not
connected properly.
•
There may be up to 100 experiments
stored in the TriLink. Performing a
"Download" means loading one of them
in sequential order. You have probably
loaded an old experiment accidentally.
Try using Selective download from
MultiLab (see page 85)
•
The trigger condition has not been
fulfilled.
•
The trigger condition was fulfilled, but
the time period was too short (less than
300µS).
