Drag a cursor to move it.
The cursor tracks the mouse until you release the mouse button, and then the cursor snaps to the nearest data point.
Actions by Offset Knob
You can operate on graph from the "Offset Knob" after pressed "Offset Knob" in the following ways :
Press the up or down arrow key to increase or decrease one record number (or corresponding to date ) in the graph .
FAQ: Why can't I see the movement by pressing above keys ? Ans : First of all, click the mouse on the monitor and make sure the bottom right corner "Display Control - Offset " figures are not in black.
Zooming and Panning on Graphs
To start zooming in on a point, press the <Ctrl> key and click on the left mouse button over the point; you can release the <Ctrl> key after you press the mouse button. The resolution in the viewport is increases dynamically until you release the mouse.
To zoom out, click on the right mouse button, and then press the <Ctrl> key as you do to zoom in.

After you downloading from model 8829/8835 or retrieving a file with Humidity records, you will find " Temperature " and " Humidity " indicated on the start point of curves . (See Dia.B-1 ) Otherwise, you will only see temperature curve.
For model 88128,8828,8813, 8814, 8815, 8833, 8834 you will not see RH% on the right side of the screen but only model 8829/8835 .(See Dia.B-2 ). However, if you plug external probe on 8833 and 8834, you will see two different temperature curve.
Meantime, you will see the date and time of the first point at the left corner , and see the last point date and time at the right corner . (See Dia. B-1 and Dia.B-2 in blue )

By scrolling up or down and then click OK to save the selection. (See Dia-E )For example ,select 1,000 sample data,the logger will stop collecting data and power off for saving battery when 1000 data collected completely . Recording inactivated when selected data is full , and yellow LED light will not blink to confirm operation is stopped .
SAMPLE RATE : Select the sampling time ranges from 1 ~43200
seconds. Scroll up for increasing time in seconds or down for decreasing time in seconds. The datalogger defaults sample rate is the same as you last setting..

FAQ: If I want to stop logging before completing all sample points , how should I do ?
Ans: 1. Downloading by PC to stop logging. Note: The download operation before completing all sample points won't work for the logger sample rate to be set as "1" second.
2. For 8813/14/15 and 8833/34/35, press "start/stop" key for over 3 seconds could also turn off the logger any time.
START MODES : (Diagram E):
Schedule -
Set up Start Date/Start Time desired to start logging. The logger will start when the setting time clock reaches the time you entered. Make sure the logger date and time are the time you are now . Magnetic - Link with your computer to setup the Magnetic start mode , select Magnetic , make sure the logger date and time are the time you are now , press "OK" , enter desired ID , press"OK" to confirm the Magnetic start setting.
To start with magnetic, use a strong magnetism
one pass over the middle of the bottom, now LED is flashing .Flashing times is depend on the time interval of every sample logging.

If the logger not yet be set any alarm before, the default will be:
o
-High Alarm temperature defaults at 85 C.
o
-Low Alarm temperature defaults at -40 C.
-High Alarm Relative Humidity defaults at 100%.
-Low Alarm Relative Humidity defaults at 0%.
If the logger used to have alarm setting before, then, the default will be the same as your last setting. You could choose to change it or not.
User simply select desired High value or Low value by scrolling up for increasing or scrolling down for decreasing .
If a temperature or RH% is higher than HI setting or less than LO setting, ALM LED will flash until you download to a PC.

FAQ: Why won't data table be updated when removing the cursor ?
Ans: It is when you remove the cursor between the ranges ( 1000 sample from cursor 1).For example : If you set number 50 record as cursor 1, the table data shows from 50 to 1049 , now you remove cursor 1 within the range, the data won't be updated, unless remove the curser 1 outside the range, i.e less than 50 or more than 1049 .

Maximum : The greatest value of whole logged records or the greatest value between two selected cursors
Minimum : The least value from the logged records or the least value between two selected cursors
Mean : Average value from the logged records or average value between two selected cursors
Std. Dev. : This is a very useful feature to see more reliable deviation while recording . Calculate each deviation between each value and Mean value, then get an average figure from totalism deviation.

FAQ: If I want to download next logger , how to update the last one graph without turning off or exiting current screen ?
Ans.: You may have two choices to down load the next logger :
a) Click "PREVIOUS SETTING"to replace the last logger data
with a new one.
b) Close the program and reopen again.
Note : Click "Retrieve File" will not activate with a new logger data
unless you follow up above instruction.
BLANK LOGO
This area is designed to insert customers' own logo. The logo will be set as default image and can't be changed by the users. (Please refer to Diagram M-1) If private logo is needed , a clear logo artwork has to be sent to the manufacturer for setting up purpose.

DOWNLOAD COMMANDS
Start - To start downloading data to the program.(See below diagram) Stop - To manually stop downloading data to the program; which
means if you don't want to download complete sample readings, you can always stop it at any time you want.
Exit - To exit Download Commands.
DISPLAY CONTROL
Offset - To set up from which sample Reading you would like to start.
There are different ranges for selection based on the logger you use.

For example : Set Offset by clicking and dragging the red indicator to " 0000 ",Range unchanged at " 8K ", you will see the Diagram P-1 The screen shows the number 0001 as starting point of the total 8,000 records.
Set Offset by clicking and dragging the red indicator to "4000", Range unchanged at " 8K ", you will see the Diagram Q below. The screen shows the number 4000 as starting point of the total 8,000 records.(See diagram Q-1 ) Actually there are 4,000 records per the offset you selected but not a total 8,000 records ( Range set on 8K ).

CHANGE THE Y SCALE
.
When there are more than one curve display on the monitor, user could press right key of mouse anywhere on the monitor to active Y scale selection function. ( See Diagram T-1). There are "Temp " "Temp2" and "all" three functions for selection.
Temp=air temp, Temp2=external temp, All= Temp.&Temp2. Above is the display of "All", Y scale will be decided by two temp. For example, if the highest/lowest temp. Of temp&temp2 are
30.1 and 10.5, then the Y scale will be 31 to 10.
While select temp2, if the highest/lowest value of temp2 is 20.1 and 10.5, then the Y scale will be 21 to 10.

FAQ: If I can't down load and the display won't active, what should I do ?
Ans: Make sure you have selected correct baud rate. Select 9600 baud rate for all the models (except 8818). This is to ensure you could download quicker by selecting correct baud rate value.
FAQ: If the logger is not flashing , how should I do ? Ans: If you were set up Magnet start function ( for 88128/8829/8829)
, when a magnet passes over the middle of rear side , the logger is not flashing, change with a new and stronger magnetism and try it again. Make sure the flashing interval is the same as programmed sampling time . If you were set 5 minutes as sample rate , the LED will just flash every 5 minutes .
