Office applications (e.g. Notepad or MS Excel). The SpaceLogger.S10 will also output RS232 data to another device. Refer to section 5.15 for details. The logger requires a 7 - 30 volt DC supply which can be provided by an AC/DC mains adaptor or suitable battery. -

Page 10: To Define The Data Sample(S) To Be Recorded
To Define the Data Sample(s) to be Recorded The SpaceLogger.S10 is capable of being used with any sensors that output their information in ASCII sentences. The format of the data must be 8 bits and no parity. It is also a requirement that each data record has identifying start and end characters to define the data sequence to be sampled. -
Page 11: To Enable Recording Of Second Data Sample
This second data sample (defined by STX2 and ETX2) will be appended to the first sample (defined by STX and ETX), rather than being independently time & date stamped. The SpaceLogger.S10 will only monitor for this second data sample once the first data sample has been detected. -

Page 13: To Add A Line Break After Each Data Set
NEWLINE=Y. To Set a Timeout By default, when the SpaceLogger.S10 is set to sample data, it will expect to receive the appropriate STX, EXT, STX2 and ETX2 in that order. It will not be able to advance to monitor for the next data sample until each of the first set of identifiers have been detected and logged. -
Page 14: To Enable Logging From The Second Rs232 Input
The baud rate on RS232 Input 2 and RS232 Output 2 is fixed at 4800 bits per second. ©2012-13 Richard Paul Russell Limited, New Harbour Building, Bath Road, Lymington SO41 3SE United Kingdom Tel +44 (0) 1590 679755 Fax +44 (0) 1590 688577 e-mail sales@r-p-r.co.uk web www.r-p-r.co.uk... -
Page 15: To Select A Logging Interval
By default, the SpaceLogger.S10 will record every sample output by the attached sensor. If an alternative logging interval is required, the SpaceLogger.S10 may be set to record at a less frequent sample rate by using the following SETUP.TXT command line: RATE=r Where r is the time in seconds between sampling for the STX condition, as an integer. -

Page 17: To Disable The Time-Stamp
If t = N, data will not be date & time stamped 5.14 To Record all Data (Disable Sampling) It is possible to disable the sampling function of the SpaceLogger.S10 and to record all data that is received on the RS232 input(s). -
Page 18: To Output Rs232 Data From The Spacelogger.s10
Should one of the connected devices require a handshake response to initiate data output, the SpaceLogger.S10 may be set to detect a message from the device defined by any one of the STX, ETX, STX2 or ETX2 conditions. One receipt of this message, the logger outputs the ASCII string defined by command RESPONSE. - Page 19 \v = 0x0B The default setting is RESPONSE=“Q”. The response to the handshake is output by the SpaceLogger.S10 on RS232 Output 1 by default, unless the logger has been set up to output RS232 data using command OUTPUT=L or I. If data has been set to output on RS232 Output 1, the response to handshake will be output on RS232 Output 2 instead.

RS232 Input 1. By default the input is RS232 logic compatible. To set the SpaceLogger.S10 to invert the logic of the received signal command RX_INV is used. RX_INV = Y Logic inverted on received signal on RS232 Input 1 RX_INV = N Signal not inverted on RS232 Input 1 The default setting is RX_INV=N. -
