Levelogger Setup

Programming Leveloggers is extremely intuitive. Simply connect to a PC using an Optical Reader or PC Interface Cable. All in one screen fill in your project information and sampling regime. Templates of settings can be saved for easy re-use.

The Levelogger time may be synchronized to the computer clock, or Leveloader clock. There are options for immediate start or a future start and stop times. The percentage battery life remaining and the amount of free memory are indicated on the settings screen.

Convenient Sampling Options

Leveloggers can be programmed with linear, event-based, or a user-selectable sampling schedule. Linear sampling can be set from 1/8 second to 99 hours.
Event-based sampling can be set to record when the level changes by a selected threshold. Readings are checked at the selected time interval, but only recorded in memory if the condition has been met. A default reading is taken every 24 hours if no "event" occurs.

The Schedule option allows up to 30 schedule items, each with its own sampling rate and duration. For convenience, there is an option to automatically repeat the schedule.

The Levelogger Edge can be programmed with compressed linear sampling, which increases the Levelogger memory from 40,000 to up to 120,000 readings.

Data Download, Viewing and Export

Data is downloaded to a PC with the click of a screen icon or with the push of a button on the Leveloader. There are multiple options for downloading data, including 'Append Data' and 'All Data'. The software also allows immediate viewing of the data in graph or table format using the 'Real Time View' tab.

The level data is automatically compensated for temperature and altitude and the temperature data is also downloaded. Barometric compensation of Levelogger data is performed using the Data Compensation Wizard, which can also be used to input manual adjustments, elevation offsets and adjust for Barometric efficiency and density.

The software allows easy export of the data into a spreadsheet or database for further processing.

Helpful Utilities

The 'Self-Test Diagnostic Utility' can be used in case of an unexpected problem. It checks the functioning of the program, calibration, backup and logging memories, the pressure transducer, temperature sensor and battery voltage, as well as enabling a complete Memory Dump, if required. A firmware upgrade will be available from time to time, to allow upgrading of the Levelogger Edge, as new features are added.
