Section 7. Creating and Editing Datalogger Programs

Note that this sensor not only offers a custom name field and units, but also

allows you to correct for sea level, a common practice in measuring

atmospheric pressure. In the middle of the screen, look over the notes (or refer

to the Help for this sensor), for this sensor may require other sensors or have

limitations. When you choose OK, Short Cut adds the necessary instructions

with appropriate multipliers and offsets.

In some cases, multiple sensors of the same type can be added at one time.

These sensors will have a How many sensors? parameter as the first parameter

on the form as shown below. The maximum number of sensors that can be

added will be indicated. The maximum will vary, depending upon the sensor

and the number of other sensors already configured in the program. If the

sensor form includes calibration and/or conversion parameters (e.g., multiplier,

offset, gage factor), there will be a

Set button next to these parameters.

Pressing this button will allow you to set unique values for each sensor.
