and the name of the current screen. Main area (B) shows the information regarded to that screen. Bottom bar (C) shows
alarms; download progress and serial communication indication whenever necessary, as shown in the following image.

Fig. 28HMI bottom bar

• Alarm events (1): Flags that one or more alarms are active. In order to check which alarms are active, please go

to the Alarms screen.

• Download progress (2): When plugging a USB flash drive to download FieldLogger data, there is a percentage

indication of the download already done. If downloading data from FieldLogger internal flash memory, it shows
the percentage of the whole memory already downloaded. If downloading from the SD card, it shows the
percentage of the current file being downloaded.

• Communication in progress (3): Informs that there is communication going on between the HMI and the

FieldLogger. Typically, this flag must be on most of the time, varying from screen to screen. If this flags stays off
and the HMI stops updating information, there probably is a communication problem between the HMI and the
FieldLogger.

Interfacing with this HMI is done through some buttons, which allow you to navigate between all the available screens,
select and edit parameters. The following picture shows the keys and their functions.

Not all characters can be visualized on the HMI. Occidental characters for tags and units are recommended.
