Program Menu > Using the button on the logger to mark an event
Temprecord has the ability to record markers along with the temperature data. A marker is simply an indication of an event - no other information is stored other than the fact that the button was pushed, and the time it was pushed. The time recorded is that of the most recently taken sample.
|
To insert a marker, you must hold the button down for at least 2 seconds. The red LED on the logger will flash twice to confirm that a marker has been recorded.
|
|
This feature must be enabled by checking the allow markers option in the Program/Parameters form. If this option is not checked, pressing the button has no effect, unless stop with button is also checked, in which case pressing the button (for at least 10 seconds) will stop the logger taking samples.
|
|
Once the marker has been recorded (i.e. when the LED flashes), be sure to release the button immediately. Remember that the logger can also be stopped by holding the button down for at least 10 seconds!
|
|
You can enter as many markers into the logger as you wish, but the Temprecord program only displays the first 100 markers recorded.
|
|
Each marker occupies a sample position - i.e. for every marker you insert, the sample capacity of the logger is reduced by one for that use.
