6.  Troubleshooting guide 

6.1  “Why won’t it do that?” 

Having described the many things you can do with a 1000 Series Squirrel, 
here are just a few operations that are not possible: - 
 

·

  clear the memory while logging is in progress 

·

  start logging when the memory is full 

·

  start logging if no channels have been selected 

·

  perform multiple runs if memory is in continuous mode 

·

  reset pulse count while logging is in progress 

·

  change date and time while logging 

·

  change start date and time while logging 

·

  change log and sample intervals while logging 

  
It  is  not  possible  to  change  the  following  either  when  there  are  readings 
stored in memory or when logging is in progress: 
 

·

  Log mode 

·

  External trigger mode 

·

  Memory mode 

·

  Channel set up and ranges 

·

  Engineering unit ranges 

·

  Memory size 

·

  Language type 

·

  Sensor switch on time 

·

  Date format 

·

  Filter frequency
