7.2 Rainlogger Setup
The Rainlogger is programmed using the Levelogger Settings Window of the
Levelogger Software. The appearance of the Window when in communication
with a Rainlogger is shown in Fig 7-4.
Setting up and Starting a Rainlogger is a quick and simple process. Identify the
logging session and location in the
Project ID
and
Location
fields. The
Sample
Mode
for the Rainlogger is Linear. Input the
Sample Rate
from 5 minutes to 99
hours, and input the
Unit
(mm or in) you will be using for rainfall measurement.
The
‘Rainfall’
Channel will provide the total rainfall within the sample interval.
It does so by multiplying the number of tips within the interval by the tipping
bucket's calibration factor. The calibration factor is the amount of rainfall
depth (mm, in) per tip. The calibration factor should be indicated on a label on
the tipping bucket device or in the manufacturer's documentation. Input the
calibration factor in mm or inches in the
Rainfall Cal Constant
field.

Note:
The Rainlogger
must be
programmed at
a specific sample rate in all
applications, as there is no
Real Time View option for
the Rainlogger.
Note:
The Rainlogger
MUST be
programmed
with a minimum 15 minute
sampling rate in order
to obtain correct rainfall
intensity values.
Users can still use a 5 or
10 minute sampling rate,
but will not obtain accurate
rainfall intensity calculations.
