Variable log 
Free space: 
95%    
Duration:  25d 14:00 
 
The Info->Log menu displays the percentage of free memory available for saving the logs and the duration of the variable log, 
expressed in days hours:minutes. The duration refers to the block of minimum duration, see Chap.

 *60,QIR0HQX

The Info->GSM menu is active only if the modem connected to the serial port is a GSM cellphone type. The following 
information is available: the name of the network operator that the modem is connected to, the intensity of the signal received as 
a percentage, and the error rate that the modem is detecting.

The name of the network operator is indicated as a text only if present in the internal list; if this is not the case, the numeric 
country code is displayed, followed the operator’s code. The intensity of the field (Signal) indicates the reliability of the 
communication, and the value should be greater than 20%. The error rate (Err) indicates the effective quality of the signal 
received; in optimal conditions this value should be 0. 
The initialising of the modem (send PIN) and reading of the data is indicated by the text 

5HDGLQJLQIR

. If no signal is available 

from the network operator, the text 

6HDUFKLQJIRUQHWZRUN

 is displayed

This menu accesses the following information: 
Firmware version, compilation date and checksum; date and time of the most recent parameter modification: this data is updated 
after each modification to the configuration parameters, made either locally or via serial line (directly or via modem).

Pressing the UP button from the main screen scrolls, in sequence, the screens displaying the current values of the variables 
acquired by the instruments. Up to 3 variables can be displayed for each instrument. These variables are the first three in the list 
of variables assigned to the log for a specific unit. 
If the peripheral selected is off-line, the numeric fields will flash and the last values acquired will be displayed. If the values have 
never been acquired, asterisks will be displayed. 
 
Pressing the Prg and “Alarm” buttons together for 3 seconds when displaying the data from an instrument temporarily disables 
the generation of alarms from the instrument in question (see Chap. 

$ODUPPDQDJHPHQW'LVDEOLQJDODUPVIRUPDLQWHQDQFH

); this 

status is displayed on the screen by an ‘X’ in the place of the “:” in row 1. Pressing the Prg and “Alarm” buttons again for 3 
seconds re-enables the alarms.
