MicroLog Chapter 1
17
MicroLog "wakes up" every second for a very short time (a
few micro-seconds) to check if one of the keys has been
pressed or if there is a message coming in from the
computer. This is the reason you have to press and hold a
key for at least two seconds before a status message
appears.
If you use high sampling rates, the MicroLog battery’s
lifespan will be considerably shorter (see
Figure 5).
