3. If you want your logger to convert raw data to printable ASCII characters in an
engineering format before transmitting it, select the Enable engineering units output
check box.
Note
: Although the data stored on the logger is of the highest precision, some precision
may be lost if you use the data in the Plot view because Ruskin converts the data back
to the raw format.
4. If you can see your logger case while it is deployed and want a visual indication that the
logger is running, select the Enable sampling LED check box. This LED does consume
battery power.
The LED will flash when sampling and can be seen through the Delrin© housing.
Note
: Your logger may not support this feature; this feature is found on XR and XRX
series loggers.
5. If you want to use the average of multiple readings rather than take a single reading for
each sensor in a sampling period, select the Enable averaging check box and specify
the averaging duration. The averaging duration must be shorter than the sampling
period. For more information, see
“Averaging” on page 11
.
Notes
: 1. Your logger may not support this feature. 2. When you use the thresholding
option, averaging cannot be enabled. 3. Only the averaged value is stored.
6. If you will be profiling while the logger schedule is enabled, select the Enable 6Hz
profiling check box.
Data is collected at six samples per second, and the Sampling period on the Schedule
tab is disabled.
Note
: Your logger may not support this feature.
7. If you want to store readings from all your sensors whenever the reading for a particular
sensor reaches a specific threshold, do the following:
•
Select
the
Enable thresholding
check box. For information about thresholding,
see
“Thresholding and hysteresis” on page 11
•
Click the type of sensor in your logger that you want to monitor.
•
Type the threshold value and indicate whether this is the upper limit (<) or lower
limit (>) of your threshold.
•
Specify how often you want the monitored sensor to be checked. Checking less
frequently will preserve battery power because all the sensors on the logger are
turned off between checks.
