Alternatively, other terminal emulation software such as Hyperterminal (available on
earlier versions of Windows
platforms, usually in Start/All Programs/Accessories/
Communications/Hyper Terminal) or
Tera Term
may be used as well. A disadvantage
of Hyperterminal is that it has a 500-line buffer limit. However, all of these programs
may used to log an unlimited number of data lines to a file on your computer. For
more details see our Tech Note #007 here:

Hold down the Select button to obtain the
Main
Menu
. Go to the
Dat
submenu by
clicking on
Dat

. The message “Logged Data” will be written to the
serial port, followed by a carriage return and all of the lines of logged data. After all
data
are transmitted, the message “End Logged Data” and a carriage return are
written. After transmission is complete, you can return to any position in the menu or
resume ozone measurements. The logged data continues to be available for
transmission until a new data log is started.
3.12. To Log Data Using the SD Card
2B Technologies provides a SD card logger with the Model 202 Ozone Monitor, along
with an SD card and an SD card reader. When inserted into the instrument (bottom
left of the
Ozone Monitor’s front panel), the SD card automatically begins to collect
and store data. (The internal data logger described in Section 3.9 will also be logging
data if logging has been selected from the
Dat
submenu.) With analog inputs
activated from the menu, the data are saved to a .txt file in the following format:
67.4,35.3,980.6,850,1.3876,2.3143,0.1875,15/10/18,18:31:27
where
Ozone = 67.4 ppbv
Cell temperature = 35.3°C (may be expressed in K if chosen from menu)
Cell pressure = 980.6 mbar (may be expressed in torr if chosen from menu)
Volumetric flow rate = 850 cc/min
Analog input A = 1.3876 volts
Analog input B = 2.3143 volts
Analog input C = 0.1875 volts
Date = October 15, 2018
Time = 6:31:27 pm
Data files on the SD
card are named “LOG01.txt,” “LOG02.txt,” etc. Note that the SD
card contains a LOGCON.txt file that should not be modified or deleted.
Data logging on the SD card will continue until either (1) the user ends data logging
from the LCD menu, or (2) the instrument is powered off. A new data file is begun
each time the instrument is powered on.
