2-4) Log File Manager
Manages the files of logged data. Whenever a logging session is started (with the key
<2/LOG>), the instrument opens a new file with which it associates the date, the start time
and a number from 00 to 15: in this file are saved all the measurements acquired until the end
of the logging session. The file is composed of
pages
: each page can contain up to 16 data
(one datum corresponds to a measurement of the three variables which appear on the display)
on SCREEN logging mode while, on ALL mode each page contain up to 5 data (each data
corresponds to a measurement of all variables A1,…, C3 and the internal temperature). Up to
16 different data files are contemplated corresponding to 16 different logging sessions. The
size of the instrument’s memory guarantees a maximum of 2000 total pages for the 16 files,
without any restraint for the size of each file. When the limit of 2000 pages or of 16 logged
files is reached and you start a new logging session, the instrument generates a warning:
“WARNING: MEMORY FULL!!” In this case, before proceeding, you must delete at least
one of the log files.

PRINT A FILE
This function allows you to select and print a file of logged data. To select a file, use the
arrows to shift to the numbers from 00 to 15. A file is associated with each number: when
selected, the date, time and dimensions of the file appear in the two lines at the bottom of
the display. Attention: there is no time relationship between the number associated with the
file and the date of the file: a lower number does not mean that the file is older. Each file is
identified only by its date and time.
To help the user, when entering the print and dis-
play functions the most recent file is proposed while in the delete functions the oldest
file is proposed.
In the example shown above, file 09 is selected: logging was started at 10:03 on 12 March
2001 and the file contains 3 pages of data. To print it, it is sufficient to set up the computer
or the printer (
see the chapter “
THE FUNCTIONS OF STORING AND
TRANSFERRING DATA TO A PERSONAL COMPUTER
” on p. 86
) and press the
<ENTER> key. At the end of printing, press <ESC/CLR> to return to the File Manager.
