*91 Data Logging
* 91 is the data logging function for the Manning Environmental Inc. sampler family. The data logging
function is always active, and will continuously record events and sampler activities as they occur. The system
performs a bound checking function on entries. This ensures that entries which exceed the limits placed in the
system are not accepted. If this happens a EEEE will appear on the display. The user simply presses
<CLEAR> to remove the EEEE and is then able to continue to enter numbers. The unit holds up to 512
entries in battery backed RAM, so in case of power loss the unit will not loose recorded events. If a 513 th
entry occurs, the unit will display a LOG FULL message and that entry and subsequent events and activities
will not be recorded until the log is cleared. The unit will display the collected information upon the 2 line by
20 character backlighted LCD display. The data is displayed in a coded format so the maximum amount of
information is available on the screen. The codes are explained in the view menu. *91 can only be entered
from the SAMPLER READY prompt. The user can reach this screen from any location by pressing
<RESET> <RESET>.
