Initial Conditions and Data Entries

Logged readings include initial conditions and data entries.

The initial conditions are the thermocouple type and the offsets for each thermocouple input. You can only view initial conditions using FlukeView Forms.

The data entries are a time stamp, the T1 reading, and the T2 and T1-T2 readings (Model 54). You can view these values by pressing ror using FlukeView Forms. Temperature readings display 0.1 degree resolution in FlukeView Forms.

The thermometer has 500 memory locations. The thermometer stores 499 sets of temperature readings and one set of initial conditions when logging continuously. It stores 250 sets of temperature readings and 250 sets of initial conditions when logging individual points manually.

Starting and Stopping Logging

Setup, memory clear, and PC communications are inaccessible during logging.

1.Set the logging interval. (See “Changing Setup Options.”)

2.Press Jto start logging. The display shows l.

3.Press Jagain to stop logging.

4.If you selected a manual logging interval, press J each time you want to store logged readings in memory.
