Figure 2 - Recorder Out in Unattended Operation
To protect equipment that may be controlled by Recorder Out, the default condition for Recorder Out when
returning from power up is always OFF unless specifically set otherwise, this includes power up in Unattended
Operation. To enable Recorder Out for use while the sensor is operating in Unattended Operation mode, a special
function must be set. This parameter, UOP Recorder Out State, is circled at left in Figure 3. When set to True,
Recorder Out will function while the sensor is running in Unattended Mode. The parameter can only be changed
when the sensor is operating in Average mode (Figure 3 middle, Mode). While the sensor is in UOP Active mode (In
progress) the function will remain set and the sensor can be repeatedly power cycled without losing the Recorder
Out settings or UOP state. If the sensor is powered up while UOP is not active, UOP Recorder Out State will be
cleared to FALSE and Recorder Out will not operate in Unattended Operation unless the parameter is set again.
