Displayed error messages: CHCArd The memory card is full or there is a problem with the card LobAt The battery is low and datalogging is disabled no CArd The SD card is not inserted 2. Press the LOG button for >2 seconds to begin logging. “DATALOGGER” will appear in the display and the meter will beep each time the data is recorded (if the beeper is enabled). 3. To stop datalogging, press the LOG button for >2 seconds.
Advanced Settings The SET function is used to: Format the SD memory card Set the date and time Set the sampling time Set the beeper sound ON/OFF Set the SD card Decimal character Set the RS232 data output ON/OFF Set the voltage range to 300mV or 3000mV 1. Press and Hold the SET button for >2 seconds to enter the setting mode. The first function (Sd F) will appear in the display. Press the SET button to step through the seven functions.
System RESET If a condition appears where the CPU does not respond to keystrokes or the meter seems frozen, press the RESET button on the side of the datalogger (use a paper clip or similar pointed object) to return the meter to a working state.
