♦ After log set up is complete select “Enable Datalog” (see section 3.3
“Enabling Data Output Ready State).
♦ A prompt will appear asking if user is ready to enable logging, select “Yes”.
Note: If data logging is set to start for some past time, there will be a
minimum delay of 100 seconds before startup after power has been
supplied. Otherwise wait until the data logging start time has been
reached for data logging to begin.
3.5 Enabling Data Output Ready State
The Data Output Ready State must be enabled for the C3 Submersible
Fluorometer in order to log data, capture real-time data output, and/or integrate
the C3 with other instrumentation. There are five necessary steps to ensure the
instrument is properly set up for data output:
1. Set the instrument’s clock to PC or local time in the Settings Tab.
2. Select the sensors you expect to use during sampling.
3. Calibrate selected sensors for either Direct Concentration Mode or Raw
Fluorescence Units Blanked (RFUB) Mode (see section 3.3).
4. Set the start time, sampling, and wiping intervals in the Log Setup Tab.
Note: wiping interval is optional and depends on the sampling interval
(see section 3.4).
5. Click the ‘Enable Datalog’ button followed by the ‘Yes’ button to enable the
Data Output Ready State.
WARNING! As soon as data logging is enabled users will be unable to access C
Soft settings. This should be the last step before the C3 Submersible Fluorometer
is deployed.
