Section 4. The PC400 Main Screen
In the case of table-based dataloggers, PC400 will display the last record from
a final storage table and will automatically update these records as they are
stored in the datalogger’s memory. Note that PC400 does not automatically
collect this data to the data file. If you want a permanent record of the data, you
must collect it manually from the Collect Data tab.
There are also settings on the Monitor Data tab to change the number of
decimal places displayed, and the interval at which the data is updated.
You may find that your labels or the number of digits displayed are too long to
fit in the space provided. Using the mouse, you may put your cursor over the
border between the columns for the labels and values and drag it left or right to
make it easier to read. The column width is not preserved when PC400 is
closed and restarted. The table name, variable name (or input location name),
and data value also will be displayed momentarily as a popup hint if you hover
your cursor over a value for a few seconds.
In some cases, you may wish to edit input locations or public variables, for
example to change sensor offsets or control datalogger program execution. To
change input location or public variable values, double click on the number
itself until it turns yellow, then use the PC keyboard to enter a new value.
(When a value is enabled for editing, if the ESC key is pressed, the change will
be canceled.) Alternately, you can right-click the value, select View Value,
and edit the value in the resulting dialog box.
The state of a port or flag can be changed by clicking the LED icon to the right
of the field value. A black LED indicates that the port or flag is low; green
indicates that it is high.
When the Port/Flag button is selected, a window appears displaying the ports
and flags in the datalogger.
The state of a port or flag can be changed by clicking the LED icon to the left
of the field label. A black LED indicates that the port or flag is low; green
indicates that it is high. Custom labels can be assigned to the ports and flags
by placing the cursor within the label field and typing in a new label.
