CUSTOMIZE APPLICATION

The Customize Application dialog box contains the default parameters used when storing a downloaded file
for the first time. Any changes made in this dialog box will affect future downloaded files. To customize an
existing file, use the Customize File dialog box. See below for more details.

Each item setting can be edited. To edit an item setting, click on a parameter in the box on the left side of the
dialog box. The setting for that selected parameter will appear in the box on the right side of the dialog box.

NOTE

When using the magnetic sensor to trigger the RPM reading, the Spur and Pinion gear values must be

updated in the Customize Application dialog box prior to downloading data from the Novak Sentry Data
Logger device. Failure to do so will result in incorrect RPM readings.

Graph Color - The color for display on the graphs can be changed.

Max Value - Maximum display value for the selected sensor can be changed.
This is especially useful for fitting data on the graphs or fine tuning the program
to your particular applications.

Name String - The display name used to identify the selected sensor throughout
the application/file. Modify the name for easier identification.

CUSTOMIZE FILE

The Customize File dialog box is very similar to the Customize Application dialog box. However, any
changes made to this section only affect the selected file. In exception, the graph color setting can not be
changed in this section. Any customization of the graph color can be done in the Customize Application
dialog box only.

In addition, the RPM ratio and magnet count settings cannot be changed in the Customize File

dialog box. These settings must be updated in the Customize Application dialog box prior to downloading a
log file from the Novak Sentry Data Logger device.
