Status Icons

View Menu > Status Icons

Temprecord displays status icons at the top right-hand corner of all data windows.  These icons provide an at-a-glance display of status of various parameters of the loaded logger data set.

 

 

Battery Status

This icon shows the estimated remaining capacity of the logger battery.  Hovering the mouse over the icon will display the remaining capacity in percent.

 

..

The battery remaining capacity is between 35 and 100%.

The battery remaining capacity is between 25 and 35%.  This is a warning that you should monitor the remaining battery capacity.

The battery remaining capacity is critical and less than 25%.  It is not advisable to use the logger.  It should be discarded or returned to Temprecord.

The battery remaining capacity is less than 5% and the battery should be considered to be exhausted.  The logger should be discarded or returned to Temprecord.

 

The battery remaining capacity is a 'best estimate' only, based on the age of the logger, the total number of samples taken, the total number to trips, and the total number of data downloads.

 

The battery status may not be available for some logger types (e.g. the Mon-T logger).  

 

The display of the battery status can be disabled  in the General options tab.

 

 

 Comments Status

This icon indicates whether comments are present in the dataset and whether the display of comments is enabled.  

 

If the yellow comment test balloon appears partially transparent (), there are no comments in the file.  If it is opaque (), there are comments present.

If there is a diagonal stroke () through the yellow comment test balloon, comments display is disabled.  If it is not present, comments display is enabled.

 

No comments are present in the dataset, and display of comments is disabled.

One or more comments are present in the dataset, but display of comments is disabled so they will not be visible on the graph.

No comments are present in the dataset, but display of comments is enabled.

One or more comments are present in the dataset, and display of comments is enabled so they will be visible on the graph.

 

The comments status icon will only be visible when the graph view tab is selected.

 

Adding a comment to a graph will automatically enable the display of comments.

 

 

Dataset Status

This icon shows the status of the dataset, providing general information about the file or logger data. Hovering the mouse over the icon will display a brief synopsis of the dataset.

 

Digest Status

This icon shows the status of any digest associated with the dataset. Hovering the mouse over the icon will display a detailed explanation of the current dataset digest.

 

The digest status could not be determined

An internal error occurred calculating the digest of the datafile

The datafile was derived from a legacy Temprecord datafile and that datafile had an incorrect CRC (earlier Temprecord datafiles were protected against tampering and damage by a 32-bit Cyclic Redundancy Check or CRC. This method of detecting file damage and tampering is not as robust as the currently used SHA256 digest).

The datafile was derived from a legacy Temprecord datafile and that datafile had a correct CRC.

The datafile has no digest.

The datafile has a digest but the format of the digest is not known by the version of Temprecord you are running.  Contact your dealer about an upgrade.

The datafile has a digest included, but there is no local passphrase specified, so the file's digest cannot be checked.

The datafile has a digest included, but it does not match the digest calculated using the local passphrase.  Either the local passphrase is not the same as the passphrase used to save the file, or the file has been damaged or deliberately modified in some way.

The datafile has a digest included, and it matches the digest calculated using the local passphrase.  The integrity of the file can be guaranteed to the level of confidence offered by the SHA256 digest, assuming that the passphrase used was robust.

The dataset is from a logger and no digest has yet been calculated.  When the dataset is saved to a file the digest will be calculated (if the Include Digest option is enabled).

 

Saturation Status

This icon shows the status of any saturation condition that has been detected in the logger data.

 

The upper logging limit of one of the enabled channels has probably been exceeded.  The statistics for maximum, mean and standard deviation values for the channel are unreliable, and if the channel is a temperature channel then the derived statistics such as TTV, MKT, etc will also be unreliable.

The lower logging limit of one of the enabled channels has probably been exceeded.  The statistics for minimum, mean and standard deviation values for the channel are unreliable, and if the channel is a temperature channel then the derived statistics such as TTV, MKT, etc will also be unreliable.

The upper and lower logging limits of one or either of the enabled channels has probably been exceeded.  The statistics for maximum, minimum, mean and standard deviation values for the channels concerned are unreliable, and if any channel is a temperature channel then the derived statistics such as TTV, MKT, etc will also be unreliable.

 

Saturation is detected by scanning the data and checking these are no more than two successive samples at the maximum or minimum range of the logger. It is possible or course (but highly unlikely) that "real" genuine sample data could exhibit such behaviour.

 

The saturation status icon does not display if no saturation was detected in any enabled channel.
