Displaying data read from a logger in 2 or more windows

It is sometimes useful to see the data read from a logger displayed as both a graph, and as a list of values, or to see the statistical data along with the graph.  You can switch from one view mode to another within a window, but this does not allow you to see the two display modes at the same time.

 

To see the data read from a logger displayed in two different windows, you need to save the data from one of them first as a file.  This is because Temprecord will only ever allow one window to be opened containing data from a logger.

 

These are the steps involved in displaying the data from 2 or more different loggers:

 

Use the File/Read Logger function to read the first logger.  Temprecord will open a window (if there is not already a window open with data read from a logger - if there is, this one will be used) and display the temperature data as a graph.

Use the File/Save function to save the logger data to a disk file.  You can use the filename provided by Temprecord (which will be derived from the serial number of the logger), or you can type in a new file name of your choice.

Use the File/Read Logger function to read the data from the second logger.  This will open another window and display the data from that logger in graph view.

 

These are the steps involved in displaying the data from the same logger in 2 windows:

 

Use the File/Read Logger function to read the first logger.  Temprecord will open a window (if there is not already a window open with data read from a logger - if there is, this one will be used) and display the temperature data as a graph.

Use the File/Save function to save the logger data to a disk file.  You can use the filename provided by Temprecord (which will be derived from the serial number of the logger), or you can type in a new file name of your choice.

Use the File/Open function to read the file again  This will open another window and display the data from that logger in graph view.

 

When Temprecord opens another data window, it will normally be opened over the top of any existing windows.  To have Temprecord arrange the windows so that they do not overlap, use the View/Tile Vertically or View/Tile Horizontallyfunctions.  To have Temprecord arrange all of the open windows as a cascade or overlapping windows, use the View/Cascade function.
