2.5.5 Adding Dataloggers to LogView Projects
Right-clicking on the “
TestLoggers
” project brings up a context sensitive menu (see
Figure 6) that allows users to add dataloggers to their projects. Selecting
New
→
Logger
from the context menu causes the “
Datalogger Settings
” dialog to be displayed. Like
Workspaces and Projects, Dataloggers can be assigned a unique human-readable name. For
this example, “MyLogger” was chosen for the Datalogger name. For a complete
description of all datalogger settings please see the LogView Online Help section on
Datalogger Settings. For connection purposes, the relevant tab in this dialog is
“
Connection Options
” (see Figure 7).
After physically connecting to a PC, all LC-2x4 dataloggers require a COM port to be
identified in the “
Connection Options
”. Starting with firmware revision 3.1.X, LC-2x4
dataloggers can communicate at baud rates of 9600 and 115,200. Before this revision the
datalogger baud rate was 9600 only; for these dataloggers, the default setting should not be
changed (See Figure 7).
