Viewing Daily and Hourly Logs

Each day, as the user-dened contract hour passes, a daily ow total is saved to nonvolatile memory. Hourly

logs are also automatically saved. A total of 384 daily logs and 768 hourly logs are accessible for viewing and

exporting using the interface software. See Section 5, page 79, for details.

Up to 99 daily ow log totals can be viewed from the LCD. Hourly ow log totals are accessible only through

the interface software.

To view daily ow totals from the LCD, perform the following steps:

1. Press the LEFT ARROW (LOG) key on the keypad. The words “Daily Volume Archive” will scroll across

the bottom of the LCD and the day index will display “01.” The daily ow total recorded at the last con-

tract hour will appear at the top of the LCD.

The index number represents the number of days previous to the current date. For example, yesterday’s

totals are read by entering an index of “01”; totals from two days previous are read by entering “02.”

2. Press UP ARROW (TEST) to increment the index (01, 02, 03...); press LEFT ARROW (LOG) to decre-

ment the index (01, 99, 98...).

3. Press ENTER (SAVE) to exit the Daily Volume Archive menu. (After 2 minutes of inactivity, the Daily

Volume Archive menu will timeout and the total readout will be restored automatically.)

The optional explosion-proof reset switch also allows users to view daily log totals. For more information, see

Explosion-Proof Reset/Control Switch, page 15.

Saving and Uploading Conguration Files

The MC-III interface software allows users to save an unlimited number of conguration les to their

computer. In the event that a conguration setting gets changed unintentionally or a user simply wants to

restore the settings he used previously, the user can upload the conguration le and resume operation within

minutes. The upload function also allows a conguration le to be loaded quickly into multiple devices. The

default directory for saving conguration les is C:\NuFlo log data\MC-III. However, the user can specify a

different location, if desired.

For complete information, see Saving and Uploading Conguration Files, page 75.

Exporting Log Data

Flow logs and event logs can be directly exported to an .xls or .csv le. For complete information, see

Exporting Flow Logs, page 86, and Exporting Event Logs, page 89. The default directory for exported logs is C:\

NuFlo log data\MC-III. However, the user can specify a different location, if desired.

Saving Log Data in a Report

Flow logs can be saved in a report format that can be loaded back into the software for viewing or printing

at a later time. For complete information, see Printing/Saving a Report, page 89. The default directory for log

reports is C:\NuFlo log data\MC-III\<WELL NAME>. However, the user can specify a different location.
