3 Description
3.1 Functional description
The function of the data log function is to record the performance of the B3100 and the
amount of the medium that passed the sensor (e.g. flowmeter) with respect to the time and
the date.
There are two different ways to program the data logging function. You can program the
data logging function via the setup menu DATALOG or via the serial communication.
There are also two possibilities to review the logged data. You can review the logged data
on the B3100 themselves or, if installed, via communication through the explosion proof
installed USB-connector and the related PC application. The required USB cable is
available as an accessory (ACE01: USB data logging and configuration cable). The PC
application is available as a free program from our internet download pages.
The recorded data is accessible via the operator menu of the B3100 or via the PC based
data log application and an USB connection up to USB standard 2.0.
