There are three types of data stored in the unit’s internal data logger: filter
data, interval data and input data.
Note
The Windows operating system screens shown in this section are
from the Windows 95 operating system. These screens may vary slightly
from your computer’s screens if you are operating RPComm under the
Windows 98 or Windows NT operating systems.

A storage pointer is a place marker in the internal data logger. When data is
downloaded from a unit, the downloading begins at the storage pointer
location and continues to the last written record. Once data has been
downloaded, the storage pointer position is set to the end of the storage
buffer so that the next time data is downloaded, only new data are output.
However, if the user wishes to download data only from a particular date,
for example, then the position of the storage pointer will need to be set.
