4.4.3 EST LOG TIME LEFT
Est Log Time Left is a “view-only” menu cell that shows an estimate of the amount of Datalog-
ger time remaining in hours and minutes. This menu cell becomes active after you enable
datalogging. Selecting Circular Memory and/or event-based datalogging (see Datalogger Setup),
blanks the field [Est Log Time Left] and is based on the log interval and data selections made
in the Datalogger Setup. For Single-Channel flowmeters, this time is an estimated minimum
since data compression is employed for improved storage efficiency.
4.4.4 CLEAR DATALOGGER
If you decide to use the Datalogger in its default mode, eventually you will use all the memory
available for Datalogger storage. When this occurs, you will not be able to log more data until
you free up the memory. The Clear Datalogger command erases ALL stored Datalogger data.
Therefore, you should evaluate the currently stored data, and print any valuable information
before using this command.
To clear Datalogger Data Memory:
To access the [Clear Datalogger] option list press
Move the cursor to [Yes] by pressing
To clear the memory press
4.5 THE MEMORY CONTROL MENU
Memory Control is a reference menu that shows the amount of bytes of data memory left.
The data memory capacity depends on the number and complexity of the site setups stored
in memory and the size of the current datalogger file. Capacity is also affected by the RAM
option with which your 1010 is equipped with - either 900k expanded or 170k standard RAM.
Defragment: Selecting [YES] for this item consolidates memory data blocks into contiguous
storage; collapsing the filler regions. You may be able to use an additional block for site or
datalogger storage as a result. Use this command if you seem to be out of memory even though
the Data Memory Left item indicates free capacity.
Data Memory Left: This view only menu cell
shows the minimum remaining number of char-
acters available for Datalogger and site storage.
When the Datalogger is enabled for circular
mode, the meter allocates all of memory except
for two conventional empty sites worth for
datalogger use.
