•
Start Delay:
Set a time delay in hours,
minutes, or seconds before the EDL-
Net will begin to record.
•
Measurement Times:
Set the length
of time in days or hours that you wish
to record data. Please note that the
“Duration of Recording” and “Interval
Between Measurements” are dynami-
cally linked. Setting the “Duration of
Recording” will automatically calculate
the “Interval Between Measurements”.
Conversely, setting the “Interval Between Measurements”, will automatically
calculate the “Duration of Recording”.
For example,
for a 32K model, if you set the “Duration of Recording” to 365
Days, it will automatically calculate the “Interval Between Measurements” as
16 minutes and 58 seconds. Or, if you set the “Interval Between Measure-
ments” at 10 minutes, it will automatically calculate the “Duration of
Recording” to 215 days and 9 hours.
