PC Utility Program Features
Making Detailed Settings
Displaying Recorded Data
in a Table
Configure settings on the LR5000 "Data Logger" series loggers, and
on the LR5092-20 Data Collector.
The PC utility program can access settings that cannot be accessed
from the logger itself.
For example,
Set recording start/stop method and timing to start and stop
recording automatically at scheduled times (Timer Measure-
ments).
Measurement data can be freely scaled for display (Scaling).
Set upper and lower thresholds so that measurements outside
of the range cause
[AL]
(Alarm) to appear on the logger
screen (Alarm Judgment).
Add comments to measurement data.
