HOW TO UNDERSTAND THE DATA MANAGEMENT 
SYSTEM

Before you start configuring your first EOL Zenith data 

logger you need to know how the overall data manage-
ment works:

1.  The  .sit  file  (configuration  file)  has  to  be  uploaded 

to the data logger through EOL Manager and not by 

copying the file to the SD card.

2. EOL Manager downloads the encrypted .log file from 

the  data  logger.  The  .log  file  contains  all  the  RAW 

data (volts and hertzs stored from all the sensors 
connected to the data logger).

3. EOL Manager then automatically converts the .log file 

into .wnd file and .txt file using the active logger con

-

figuration file (also stored on your PC).

How does EOL Manager convert the .log file?  When you 

set up your data logger in EOL Manager, you typed in the 

slope and offset for the sensors you were going to con

-

nect to that data logger. EOL Manager uses those slopes 

and offsets to convert the .log file. It’s that simple.

EOL Manager also keeps a history of all your modifica

-

tions to your logger configurations. Why is that impor

-

tant? Well, say for example you replaced an anemome- 

ter on one of your met masts two weeks ago. You can 

then modify the configuration file in EOL Manager and 
manually convert/decode the last two weeks’ raw data 
(the .log file) into new .wnd files.
