Data Logging

NOTE:

The Gas Tracer logs data while in Normal Mode or in Bar
Hole Mode. If the Gas Tracer is used in Leak Check Mode, no
downloadable data will be logged.

The Gas Tracer features the ability to log data to its internal memory
and download it to a computer via the infrared communications port
located just below the RESET SILENCE button. It logs gas readings
during normal operation, alarm data, and calibration data.

NOTE:

The data logging function is separate from the snap logging
function. For a description of the snap logging function, see
“Snap Log Mode, Normal Operation” on page 35.

To utilize the Gas Tracer’s downloading capability, you will need the
Gas Tracer downloading software and a computer with an infrared
port or a USB port that runs one of the following operating systems:
Windows XP, Windows Vista or Windows 7. If your computer has an
infrared port, then no additional accessories are needed to download
data from the Gas Tracer. If your computer does not have an infrared
port but does have a USB port, a USB/IrDA adapter cable can be used
to download data from the Gas Tracer using a USB port. The
downloading software is available from RKI Instruments, Inc. The
adapter cable is also available from RKI or may be purchased at a
computer or electronics supply store.

For a complete description of the downloading software and
procedures for downloading data to a computer, see the Gas Tracer
Data Logger Management Program Operator’s Manual.
