Starting a Log
Every log is programmed for either a manual or a scheduled start. A log with a manual
start time is displayed in the Logging screen with Ready in the Status column. A log
with a scheduled start time is displayed with Pending in the Status column.
Starting a Pending Log
A Pending log automatically starts at the scheduled time without any user intervention.
A scheduled log with Pending status can be manually started at
any time before its scheduled start.

Select the Ready log you want to start.
Click the Start Log button . The log starts and the symbol changes. The Status
column displays Running.
Suspending (Pausing) a Log
A running log may be temporarily paused. For example, you might want to reposition an
instrument, calibrate a sensor, or clean a sensor and later resume the log. A log can be
suspended and resumed three times.
1. With the instrument connected to the software, select the Logging tab .
2. Select the log you intend to suspend.

column. The data file will show the time when the log was suspended and the time
when it restarted.
Stopping a Log
A log can be manually stopped at any time, even if a stop time has been previously
scheduled. If you did not specify a stop condition when you defined the log, the log will
run until the instrument is out of memory or battery power, or until you manually stop it.
