With a Log Record, you can choose which pieces if information to log (measurement name,
units, quality, and value), change the order in which they appear, place a character between
measurements (such as the commas, shown above), and even place a character between the
name, quality, value, and units. This provides for easy formatting if using a spreadsheet or other
application where the separating character is important.
Using a Log Record is a two part process. First, the Log Record must be created- choose Add
Record in the Station Setup/Log Records menu, and define the necessary properties as
described below. Second, go to the menu of each measurement output (Station
Setup/Measurements/Mx/Mx.Ox) you want to include in the record, and update the RecordID
property to refer to the Log Record you just created. See the section Station Setup/Mx/Mx.Ox
earlier in this chapter for more information.
The Log Records menu appears like this:

Delete Record

make sure you want to actually delete the record. Once the record has been deleted, no more
records of the selected type will be logged.
