DATA LOGGING
Data logging can take two forms:-
1) Printer permanently connected.
At the pre-set intervals a status is sent to the printer. Events such as filling and lid opening are reported as they
occur. Alarms are also reported as they occur.
If required, the entire data log can be printed on demand.
2) Printer not permanently connected.
The data log is stored, but only printed out on demand. Up to 3100 ‘events’ may be logged and stored in
memory. As an example, if a 15 minute logging interval is selected, Downloading to a printer will be required
approximately once per month.
If logged data is critical more regular downloading or continuous logging as in 1) is recommended.
PRINTING THE DATA LOG
Four different print options are provided. These are:-
DATA LOG - Time, Date, Temperature, and Level for each logging point are listed line by line. Alarms and
other events are also listed.
TEMPERATURE LOG - Time and temperature only are listed for each logging point. The information is
arranged into columns and grouped in days with a new header with date for each day.
ALARM LOG - As DATA LOG but only alarms, resets and power on/off events are listed.
FILL ACTIVITY LOG - As data log but only Fill On and Fill Off events are listed.
Before printing out ensure the printer is connected, switched on and has sufficient paper to print all of the
expected data (up to 60 sheets of A4)
For printer connection details see Appendix C.
