1.2.1 Logger Channel
When you contact the logger, the logger status is displayed. The Channel line gives the
description, the number of readings stored, the Realtime value, and the time of the next
reading. The Realtime value is based on the equation that you select for the channel. The
equation is selected in the Setup window but is not shown in the Status window.
To set the description, click on the Description field and enter the name.
The logger collects and stores raw data readings. An equation is used to transform the raw
data into measurement units, such as °C, with the current reading shown as a Realtime value.
You can use built-in equations or you can create your own custom equations. See Equations
in the TrendReader guide for further information. To set the equation, click on the Equation
