described in the manual of the logger.

Close allows you to quit the programming. If changes have been made and they

have not yet been transferred to the logger, a warning message appears.

Transferring the settings

The settings made are sent to the logger and the setup window is closed. Only

modifications are transferred. If no changes have been made, a corresponding

message appears. If entries contain invalid data, the button stays greyed out until the

corresponding corrections are made. After the transfer of settings, a corresponding

response appears.

Start/Stop/Measuring interval:

The start and stop conditions correspond to those of the programming that was last

performed. In general, these values are outdated because of the current logger time

and they generate warning messages that possibly do not allow you to perform a

save operation via the button "Transferring the settings". The start and stop time

settings are checked while being entered and the results are displayed in the

"Startup/Stop settings (Abstract) " area. If warning messages appear, transferring

the settings is not possible and the "Transferring the settings" button is disabled.

Startup settings:

The logger startup can be performed by simply pressing a button (start/stop button)

or by using a Reed contact (option). This function can be disabled by unchecking the

appropriate boxes.

The other specifications allow:

• the subsequent startup (using a button, Reed contact (optional) or PC command)

• the immediate startup while transferring the new settings

• the startup at a predefined time (date and time)

When entering a start time, make sure that it is not less than the logger time or

greater than the stop time. The start time should not be reached at the time when the

data have completely been transferred to the logger, otherwise the program will not

react to the entry of the start time. A verification only takes place during entry.

To prevent the recorded data from being overwritten due to a restart occurred after

pressing a button, the "Secure against multiple start" box can be activated. In this

case, the logger can be restarted by simply pressing a button after the data have

been read out, the setting via setup has been cancelled or the next startup is directly
