Data Selection
Data Selection allows you to select which types of data are stored and made available when you
download your datalog to a computer via ProRAE Studio II (version 1.04 or higher) software.
You can choose any or all of four types of data (you must choose at least one):
Minimum
Average
Maximum
Real Time

Datalog Type
The instrument offers three options for starting the datalogging process:
Auto
Automatically collects datalog information every time the instrument is sampling until
the datalog memory is full.
Manual
Datalogging occurs only when you manually initiate it (see below for details).
Snapshot
Captures a single event when you press [MODE].
Note:
You can only choose one datalog type to be active at a time.
About Manual Datalogging
When the instrument is set to Manual Datalog, you can turn datalogging on and off by repeatedly pressing
[N/-] and stepping through the screens from the main display until you reach the screen that says “Start
Datalog?”
When you reach the screen that says “Start Datalog?” press [Y/+] to start it. You see “Datalog
Started,” confirming that datalogging is now on. You can turn it off by pressing [Y/+] again.
If datalogging is running, you can leave it running. However, if you want to turn it off, follow this
procedure:
Press [N/-] repeatedly to step through the screens until you reach the screen that says, “Stop
Datalog?” Press [Y/+] to stop datalogging. The screen displays “Datalog Stopped” for a few
seconds, before displaying “Start Datalog?” and the datalog interval. You can restart it
anytime by pressing [Y/+] from that screen.
About Snapshot Datalogging
When the instrument is in Snapshot datalogging mode, it captures a single “snapshot” of the data at the
moment of your choosing. All you have to do is press [MODE] each time you want to capture a snapshot
of the data at that instant.
No snapshot.
Press [MODE] for a snapshot.

Memory Full Action
When the internal datalog memory is full, the MultiRAE can either stop collecting data (Stop when full)
or go back to the beginning and overwrite the data from the first entry, second entry, etc. (Wraparound).
