The "Water Level" command (WL) displays the present water level if in quadrature transducer
mode, or takes a 4-20mA transducer reading if configured. The level is displayed to 2 decimal
places and expressed in metres for quadrature, and 3 decimal places and expressed in metres for

4.2 Data Output Format
4.2.1 Rainfall Record
The following data represents the historical rainfall record as output from an RRDL-3 data
logger. The example below represents a data record as presented to a computer after invoking an
ASCII DUMP command. A HEX DUMP format (memory image) is also available where rapid
dumping is essential. A convert program running from a PC environment will then reconstruct the
record to its ASCII format. Each parameter is separated by a spacecharacter with each line
terminating with a carriage return line feed marker, (< crlf >). Additional housekeeping events,
identified as plain Englishtext fields, are automatically logged to the record on the instance of a
variety of events. The text fields, Record Clear, Connect, Disconnect and Record End are
examples of some of the text event indicators.
