Downloading and Working with Data
1. Click the ‘Data Control’ tab to access the ‘Data Control’ window.
This window is laid out in three sections: datalogger settings, tabular data, and
graphical data.
2. To download the data from a connected LevelVent 5, select the ‘Download Data’
icon. There are four options for downloading data. They are: All Data, Append
Download, Partial Download and Download Files. The data will be presented in
both tabular and graphical format.
3. To save data, click the ‘Save Data’ icon and input desired name for the saved file.
4. To export the file for use in other software, click the ‘Export’ icon. The file can be
exported to a *.csv or *.xml file.
Note:
To change the default directory for downloaded data, use the ‘Configuration’
menu at the top of the software window. Select ‘Application Settings’ and input
or navigate to a different folder destination. Click ‘OK’.
Starting and Stopping the LevelVent 5
1. If desired, enter a Future Start and/or Future Stop Time. To start logging
immediately, do not fill in a future start time and click the ‘Start Now’ icon.
Note:
When the ‘Start’ icon is selected, a window will pop-up to indicate how much
memory is available. Selecting “Yes” ignores the message and starts the
datalogger immediately. Selecting “No” gives you the chance to access the ‘Data
Control’ tab to download and/or delete data files using the ‘Download Files’
option, to free-up memory.
Note:
The default directory for downloaded and saved data is in the ‘Data’ folder:
<C:\Program\Files\Solinst\Levelogger 4_5\Data>. Data is saved as a .xle
data file.
Tip:
The ‘Future Start’ and ‘Future Stop’ options are ideal for synchronizing the data
collection of multiple LevelVent 5 dataloggers.
