Save File on MAT-1 Logger drive
Click
“Save
Setup
File…
,
” and navigate to your logger’
s USB drive. If you are using a microSD card
supplied by Lowell Instruments, the drive
will be labeled “MAT_LOGGER”.
It is essential that the setup
file be named
“MAT.cfg” and be saved on the logger’s SD card
. The logger will look for this file when you
instruct the logger to start recording data (in the next step) and it will load the values that you saved in
the file. The logger will not start if the MAT.cfg file is missing. Note: on Windows, your computer may
hide the .cfg from the name of the setup file after it has been created, and the folder will simply contain
“MAT”. This will not impact the operation of the device or software.
Tip: If you have multiple loggers that you want to configure in the same way, it may be convenient to
save this file on your hard drive and copy it to the other SD cards.
