If the logger tries to start fast logging and the external power supply is not applied the logger will stop Then you have to reconfigure the logger Decide Which Channels To Log On When the logger is operating the logger measures the input of each ENABLED channel Be sure to enable the channel if you want the channel be recorded If one channel s measurement relies on other channels measurements A custom equation may use other channels measurements for the current channel s calculation be sure to enable those dependent channels Some of the Site Log loggers are featured with software programmable channels The input range of those channels can be changed via SiteView When the range is changed to better fit the actual input signal s range better resolution and accuracy can be obtained For instance changing the Input Range of a programmable voltage channel to 0 2 V will get better resolution if you know the input source s range will be within 0 2 V Decide How to Convert To Physical Measurement When the logger saves the data the logger saves the data in digital format SiteView converts the digital values to the physical measurements after the data is downloaded to the computer SiteView User s Manual Microedge Instruments Inc 54 211 Role of Equation Site View does the data conversions by using equations An equation is a software entity handling the conversion from one data format to another Site
