Operating Information
4.3 Storing measurements in the instrument
The instrument will store up to 500 gas measurement values, labeled by numbers 0 through
499, along with the current date and time of each measurement. You have the choice of
acquiring this information manually or automatically, as described below.
Before storing measurements, you should verify the date and time settings of the instrument's
internal clock, as described in
Clock settings on page 44 .
4.3.1 Automatic data acquisition
Note: When the instrument is used to automatically store measurement data, all buttons except the
POWER key are disabled. If enough time elapses to store all 500 values, the instrument will return to
normal measurement mode and the buttons re-enabled.
Before starting automatic measurement storage, first select the sampling rate desired using the
Sampling Rate menu of the WinLog97 program (refer to
Automatic data acquisition - Setting
sampling intervals on page 35 ).
Note: If you have not cleared previously stored values, the storage sequence automatically overwrites the
older values, as they are stored.
To end automatic storage, switch the instrument OFF (by pressing the POWER key) while it is in
normal measurement mode and not while it is in the process of automatically storing data.
Switching ON again without holding down the STO button returns the instrument to
measurement mode.
Note: If you accidentally interrupt the automatic data storage by switching off the instrument while it is in the
process of storing a value, and you then attempt to download the stored values by the WinLog97 program,
you will get a Windows
Checksum Error message, and you will not be able to view the measurement data.
If this happens, then go back to the instrument and manually log one more value (as described in Manual
data acquisition on page 27 ). You can then download your original set of values to your PC.
1. Switch the instrument OFF (by pressing the POWER
key)
2. Then hold down the STO button while switching the
instrument back ON . The LCD displays the message
Sto
for about one second
3. Normal gas concentration measurements are
displayed for about two minutes
4. After two minutes the instrument displays the sample
number (starting at
000
), then the gas concentration
measurement value followed by [
---]
to indicate
the measurement is being stored.
5. This storage sequence repeats automatically, at the
rate specified by the WinLog97 program Sampling
Rate menu. Values are stored sequentially in sample
numbers
000
through
499
.
