Open iChart without a current project. 2. From the main menu select Edit | Preferences. 3. Unchecking the “Enable startup dialog” box will stop the startup […]
Rain Duration: The continuous length of time that rain is detected. Interval Rain: The amount of rain for a given sample interval. Rain Intensity: The amount of rain measured every sample interval multiplied by the number of sample intervals per hour to get to the correct units such as in/hr or cm/hr. Daily Rain: The sum of all Interval […]
The most likely cause is that iChart software is busy with a synchronization command at that time. iChart has a function to schedule a synchronization of the iSIC real-time clock (RTC) to the PC clock at the beginning of every hour. As soon as an hour begins, iChart sends the synchronize command to the iSIC […]
The data from the Vaisala WXT520 Weather Transmitter is processed by the sensor and not by the iSIC data logger or iChart software. REV: 13G29
Yes. The iSIC data logger can collect data for intervals less than one minute. However, it requires special commands, careful considerations and advanced processes. Please contact NexSens Customer Support for more information and to get a specific solution to your problem. REV: 13G29
A NexSens iSIC data logger can be configured as either a data logger or a sensor, but not as both at the same time. However, there are ways to log and simultaneously display real-time data through the use of third party software. Solution 1. Set iChart to regularly upload data to a .csv file and then […]
The transfer rate is the speed at which data is transferred from a cellular device to another device such as a PC connected to the internet. The highest transfer rate available for a NexSens cellular data logger is 9600 bits/s. This can be achieved if: The user has a good cellular data plan The system […]
iChart terminal connections will timeout when no input has been given for 15 seconds. This feature is designed to conserve power if the terminal is left open. Additionally, iSIC data loggers open terminals to YSI sondes using serial RS-232 communication. If the log interval on the sonde is set up so that a reading is […]
Sample Interval: the number of minutes between each reading taken by sensors connected to a data logger. The sample interval can’t be greater than the log interval. Log Interval: the number of minutes between each logging of readings. If the log interval is equal to the sample interval, there will be one reading logged. If […]
