6.2 Managing the loggers

All loggers to be used for a measurement must be registered in the Commander

beforehand. Only registered loggers can be programmed and read. Registration is

performed either by manually inputting the logger ID or by automatic wireless detection.

The registered loggers are combined in groups.

6.2.1 Managing logger groups in the Commander

All loggers registered in the Commander must be assigned to a group. The Commander

can only communicate with one of the logger groups created, the so called “workgroup”

(see page 14).

Logger groups can be created, deleted, copied and renamed directly on the

Commander.

Select the symbol in the main menu, and the Group Management button in the

next view, to go to the menu for managing logger groups. All the registered logger

groups are listed.

The workgroup is marked with an X in the view. To turn another logger group into the

workgroup, select the list and then a group.

To create a completely new logger group in the Commander, proceed as follows:

Step Description

1 Select the Add button.

Result: A new view opens.

Select the group mode (see page 13) for the new group and confirm with OK.

After the group is created, the group mode can no longer be changed.

All loggers in a group must belong to the same group mode as the

group itself (e.g. a “Lift&Shift” group may only contain “Lift&Shift”

loggers).

Result: A new view opens.

Enter a name for the new group. Use the virtual keyboard for this.

To complete the input, select the ENTER button.

Result: The new group is now created in the Commander. The display jumps

automatically to the Logger Management menu.

Use this menu to assign loggers to the newly created group (see page 47).
