Freight Mode
Selecting this mode prevents the modem from powering up so that the logger
cannot transmit, even when the logger has been programmed to transmit (e.g.,
because of an alarm). Select this option when air freighting a logger, even if
the SIM card has been removed. ADS ships all loggers transported by air in
this mode.
Read Current Values
Selecting this checkbox displays the current values from the attached logger in
the Digital, Analog, Battery Voltage/External Power Voltage, and GSM
Signal Strength fields, as applicable. PrimeWorks will request data from
the logger every second. Pressure and other analog data update at this
interval, but flow values require up to 1 minute to update based on the sample
rate programmed into the logger.
Digital/Analog
These fields display the current value and units for each channel. The number
of values displayed varies based on the logger features and programming. If
the XiLog+ is not logging data on a channel, the corresponding field will not
display a reading. A channel that is not logging data may indicate the channel
has not been enabled or the end date and time designated for logging data has
passed.
AutoZero Button
Clicking on this button removes the current offset and forces the analog
channel to read zero. This button is available only when the XiLog+ is
logging pressure, depth, or height on an analog channel.
Note: Use this option only with the transducer open to atmospheric
pressure. This new offset will apply only to future data. It will not be
applied to previously recorded data.
Battery Voltage
This field displays the current internal battery voltage (nominally 7.2V). If it
reads low and the battery requires replacement, PrimeWorks will display a
warning once the logger is connected to the computer.
