Erase Log Data


The logged data on an X2 data logger can be cleared via CONNECT. This deletes all stored measurements from the X2 memory, and the data can no longer be recovered once erased.

  1. Connect the X2 logger to a PC and launch the CONNECT software.
  2. From the CONFIG tab, click the drop-down arrow next to the Erase button and select Erase Log Data.
