As with the TEST command, lines in the status report can be returned individually, using STATUSn. 
Command 
Description 
STATUS1 
returns model name and firmware version (same as TEST0) 
STATUS2 
lists active schedules, and halted schedules 
STATUS3 
returns the number of alarms in active schedules, and the number in halted schedules 
STATUS4 
returns the number of polynomial/spans defined, and displays the definition of each 
STATUS5 
lists schedules with logging enabled, and schedules with logging disabled 
STATUS6 
returns total free space (kbytes) on internal file system, and total used space 
STATUS7 
returns total free space (kbytes) on inserted USB memory device, and total used space 
STATUS9 
returns current settings for all switches 
STATUS10 
returns internal details about the current job 
STATUS14 
an extended version of 
STATUS10 
The STATUS14 command is somewhat special in that it can also be applied to a non-current job, i.e.: 
STATUS14 "jobname" 
CHARAC Command 
During manufacture, each DT80 is characterised – that is, various operational parameters are measured and then 
programmed into the unit's flash memory. This process is designed to cancel out any variations between units due to 
component tolerances and such like. 
The 
CHARAC command lists the various characterisation parameters. These will vary slightly from unit to unit. 
If any of these parameters have not been set correctly then a warning message such as 
  DT80 not characterised 
will be displayed on the LCD. Contact dataTaker technical support if you see this message. 
SERVICEDATA Command 
The SERVICEDATA command automatically issues a number of diagnostic commands which together provide a 
comprehensive "snapshot" of the current state of the DT80. If you contact dataTaker support to resolve a problem with 
the logger you may be asked to run this command and then send the results to dataTaker for analysis. 
By default, this command will output its results to the current comms connection. Alternatively, it may be directed to a text 
file using: 
SERVICEDATA "filename". This file may then be retrieved from the logger using FTP or by using the COPY 
command to copy it to a USB memory device. 
This command can also be issued via the DT80 web interface (Series 2 only). 
A SERVICEDATA report includes: 
• 
TEST command output 
• 
CHARAC command output 
• 
STATUS command output 
•  current parameter settings 
•  current profile settings 
•  event log 
•  error log 
•  current job program listing 
• 
DIRJOB* command output (storefile status for all jobs) 
•  DIRTREE command output 
•  internal file system integrity check 
•  comms settings and statistics 
•  firmware thread status 
•  memory status 
•  TCP/IP communications status
