After X consecutive alert

readings (W minutes)

Tick this box, and enter a number into the adjacent field if you

want to trigger an alert condition once X number of consecutive

alert readings are recorded. Note that the number of minutes

shown will depend on the number of alert readings you enter into

the box AND the recording interval already specified. For example,

if X is 3 and two readings are above the upper threshold limit but
the subsequent reading is below the upper threshold limit and still

above the lower threshold limit then the alert indicator will not

activate. Maximum value is 256, minimum is 2.

After X alert readings

have occurred (W

minutes)

Tick this box, and enter a number into the adjacent field if you

want to trigger an alert condition once a total number of alert

readings have been recorded, regardless of whether they are

consecutive or not. Maximum value is 256, minimum is 2.
You can increase or decrease the values with the arrows next to

the fields. Please note these are linked and certain combinations
may not be allowed.

Leave alert indicator

enabled even if
readings return within

alert range

If this option is enabled then the alert indicator will remain active,

even if the current reading does not meet the alert conditions
specified by the previous controls.
If this option is disabled then the alert indicator will remain active

only if the current reading meets the alert conditions specified by

the previous controls.

Clear and reset alert

when START MARK

button pressed

If this feature is enabled, any user can turn off an active alert by

pressing the LogTag's START MARK button. It will also reset the

internal alert counters such that it would be as if no alert condition

had occurred at all while the LogTag was recording.
Should the LogTag subsequently detect a further alert condition,
the alert will activate again.
Once the LogTag has finished recording, pressing the START MARK

button will not clear and reset any active alert.
If the LogTag being configured does not support this feature, it will

be disabled and its setting cannot be changed.

Example:

You wish to configured a LogTag so alert conditions are indicated if 5 continuous readings
are out-of-range or 7 total readings are out-of-range. Alert parameters should be set as
follows:
