Log files
A log file is created for each evaporation
process and is assigned a unique eight digit
reference number which is derived from the
evaporator serial number followed by an
incremental identifier. The evaporator holds
up to four log files in internal memory, the
oldest file is overwritten once the memory is
full. Files may be transferred to a remote
computer via a USB data key.

Note:
Rocket 4D does not have a
real-time clock. When log files are viewed
on a computer, they display a fixed time
and date that does not reflect the actual
time and date.
To store a larger number of log files
without being over-written, connect a USB
data key to the evaporator USB port before
starting the running the method; the
evaporator will log files directly to the data
key.
Note:
Log files record temperature in °C
and pressure in mbar, regardless of the
pressure and temperature unit options
selected in the
Options
menu.
