Honeywell Manning EC-P2 DData Logging, Programming sample mode variables, SAMP Variable

4 Programming and Advanced Features continued

Programming sample mode variables:

The sample mode variables are Sample, Measure and Clear as described above. The following procedure will change the Sample variable.

To Enter SAMP / MEAS / CLEAR Mode

1)Push power button to turn unit on. Wait for power up sequence to finish (30 seconds).

2)Push and hold the unnamed button (second from left) first, then Push and hold the Menu button. Hold both buttons until the screen goes blank (two seconds). Release both buttons and the unit is now in Programming Mode.

3)Push the MORE button.

4)Push the SMPL (sample) button and the unit is now in the SAMP / MEAS / CLEAR mode.

SAMP Variable

5)Push SAMP (sample) button.

6)Push INC button (increase) or DEC button (decrease) until the display matches the desired value. The display is in minutes and seconds.

7)Push SAVE button to store new SAMP variable.

To Exit SAMP / MEAS / CLEAR Mode

8)Push DONE button twice slowly to get back into normal operation mode.

The Measure and Clear variables are pro- grammed in the same manner, except for step five above in which you would push the MEAS or CLEAR button.

DData Logging

The Manning EC-P2 can log periodic gas concentra- tion readings to be downloaded to a file which can be read by Microsoft Excel or other popular spreadsheet applications. The EC-P2 will store instantaneous gas values every one, five, 10, or 15 minutes. Multiple sessions can be logged and then downloaded as separate files.

EC-P2 software installation:

The Manning EC-P2 is supplied with a CD containing the “Manning EC-P2” program. It will run on Windows 95, Windows 98, or Windows 2000. To install the program, place the disk in your CD drive. The CD should automatically begin the installation process. Follow the prompts as they appear on your screen. Accepting the default directory locations is recommended for most installations. If the CD does not automatically start, click on “My Computer” and then your CD drive. Double-click on the file named “Setup.exe.”

Prior to your first datalogging session it is recom- mended that you connect the Manning EC-P2 to your computer with the data logging program running. The computer can then set the time in the EC-P2 to match its own clock.

Data Logging with the Manning EC-P2:

To Start the Data Logging Session

1)Push power button to turn unit on. Wait for power up sequence to finish (30 seconds).

2)Push the MENU button.

3)Push the LOG button and the unit is now in the CLEAR / INT / START mode.

4)If the CLEAR button is available, that means there is data currently stored in the unit. If desired, you can erase the data already in the unit by pushing the CLEAR button. (If you don’t push CLEAR, each data logging session can be downloaded as a separate file).

5)Push INT button (interval) to cycle through the choices for how often to log a data point. Stop when the desired interval is displayed. Notice how much time can be covered with the remaining free memory.

6)Push and hold the START button until the screen goes blank (two seconds) to begin a new data logging session. The unit will now display the gas concentration. The Lg symbol in the left side of the display indicates that the unit is logging data. If you watch this symbol carefully, you will see it change to an “s” each time a data point is stored.
