Frequently Asked Questions
1.
Sample Interval: The Sample Interval determines how frequently the data logger will save a
reading. Using DicksonWare™ Software, the user can set a Sample Interval ranging from 10 seconds
to 24 hours in 10 second increments. A temperature logger with data storage of 32,512 set at a 10
second Sample Interval will record for 3.75 days, while the same logger set at a 1 minute Sample
Interval will record for 22.5 days.
2.
Data Storage: Data Storage is the number of Sample Points a data logger can hold. You will find
models that range from 7,680 samples to 32,512. A temperature logger with Data Storage of 32,512
and a sample interval set at 30 seconds would record for 11.25 days, while a temperature logger with
Data Storage of 7,680 and the same sample interval would record for only 2.6 days.
3.
Does it have to stay connected to a PC in order for it to work? No. Unless you're viewing
data in real-time you only connect the logger to a PC when you want to view / retrieve data.
4.
What happens when all the storage space is taken up? Do I have to throw it away?
5.
After you have downloaded the data, you simply "clear" the logger and it is ready to log more data.
6.
What happens if I leave it monitoring somewhere too long? The Data Loggers have two user
selectable modes, Stop and Wrap. In Stop mode, they will quit logging data when the memory is full.
In Wrap mode, the Logger will begin to overwrite the oldest data in its memory.
