Stop a Log
After you stop a log you cannot restart it.
1. To permanently stop a log that has no scheduled stop,
go to the Logging tab, and select the log.

3. Make sure that you download the data after you stop a
log.
Drop the Connection and Exit Win-Situ Mobile

Prior to physically disconnecting the RuggedReader from
the communication cable, tap the Connect button. The
button changes from blue to yellow and appears
disconnected.
To exit Win-Situ Mobile Software, tap the File menu and
select Exit.
Deploying the Instruments
You can deploy a Rugged TROLL Instrument with or
without a Rugged BaroTROLL Instrument. Use the
Rugged BaroTROLL Instrument when you want to
compensate water level measurements for atmospheric
pressure.
Use the following steps for each instrument.
1. Connect the instrument to a computer with Win-Situ 5
Software installed.
2. Make sure that you sync the clock .
3. Program a log. See the Win-Situ 5 or Win-Situ Mobile
section of this document for more details.
The BaroTROLL measurements can be taken
far apart as long as they cover the general time
period as the Rugged TROLL log.
If the Rugged TROLL log uses the reference
"Set first logged reading to," the Rugged
BaroTROLL log should start before the
Rugged TROLL log to ensure that barometric
pressure is measured when the first level
reading is captured.
4. Disconnect the BaroTROLL, attach the hanger, and
deploy it suspended or lying in a protected location
above water level near the submerged Rugged TROLL
100 or 200. One possibility is shown in Figure 1.1 .
Do not submerge the Rugged BaroTROLL
Instrument.
