DATA LOGGING
Data logging is an optional extra and is only available on the 765C. A standard 765
unit can be upgraded to include data logging by returning it to the manufacturer. If
data logging is not fitted then the relevant menu items are not displayed.
If data logging is fitted “Data log” is one of the options when the Set button is pushed.
Data Storage and Download
The logged data is stored in files on an USB flash drive or “USB data stick” that is
built into the 765C.
When the unit is turned on and connected to a Microsoft Windows PC with the
supplied USB cable it will be recognised as a standard external disk drive. Depending
on the PC settings a window will appear asking what to do, it is suggested that the
“Open folder to view files” option is selected. If necessary go to “My computer” or
“Computer” on the start menu and the new drive should appear on the list where it can
be clicked to show any data logger files.
Once a list of logger files is displayed in Windows Explorer they can be dragged to
the PC desktop or any other folder in the normal way. When a logger file has been
transferred to the PC it should be deleted from the logger to free up space. This can be
done from Windows Explorer or by pressing Set\Data log\Format which deletes ALL
files on the flash drive.
Microsoft Windows XP, Vista and 7 should be able to use the logger without any
special drivers or other software. When the 765C is plugged in for the first time
Windows may say that it is searching for drivers, these should be found without
assistance.
Logging will continue until the memory is full or a low battery condition is detected.
When connected to the PC a “U” is displayed on screen to the left of the Clock.
When the internal flash disk is being read from or written to the LED left of the screen
flashes green.
