LOGGER SETTINGS 

 

The pre-programmed logger settings are included in the SETUPOLD(BACKUP).TXT file on the memory 
card. To restore or change settings on the logger, copy the file and re-name the copy as SETUP.TXT 
Make any changes required in order to prepare it to configure the logger. A few of the adjustable 
settings are discussed below; additional information is available in the logger's user manual.  

The 110-WS-S10 Data Logger is pre-programmed to receive and store data from one sensor, using the 
start (STX) and end (ETX) characters to identify each record. The default condition is to record every 
message the sensor generates.  

The number of messages a sensor generates for a given time interval depends on the sensor's own 
configuration. This rate may be too fast (resulting in data files that are large), or too slow, not providing 
enough detail. Check the sensor manual for information on setting the output of the sensor to a rate 
that is suitable for your application. If the sensor is providing too much data and cannot be adjusted to 
a suitable speed, the S10 logger can be programmed to ignore some messages and only log messages 
that arrive at a specified interval (range 0 to 60 seconds). In the SETUP.TXT file: 

RATE=R  

  R = 

0

 to 

60

 

  R should be set to a value greater than the sensor output interval or 0

 

  If R = 0, every sample received by the S10 logger will be recorded 

 

The S10 logger creates a new file each day for storing data. If preferred, all data may be set to record 
to one continuous log file. In the SETUP.TXT file: 

SINGLEFILE=F  

  F = 

Y

 or 

N

 

  If F = 

Y

, data is stored in a single log file 

  If F = 

N

, data is stored in daily files 

 

If required for formatting the logged data, a line break may be added at the end of each recorded data 
set. In the SETUP.TXT file: 

NEWLINE=L 

  L = 

Y

 or 

N

 

  If L = 

Y

, the characters <CR><LF> are appended 

  If L = 

N

, nothing is appended 

 

The baud rate is selectable to match the connected device. In the SETUP.TXT file: 

BAUD=B 

Where B is the baud rate. Valid baud rates are 115200, 57600, 38400, 19200, 9600, 4800, 
2400, 1200, 300 and 110 bits per second.
