AutoPoll Tab
When a Logger List is to be used by the AutoPoll program for automatic, unattended data retrieval,
the serial number should be entered and the connection method selected on the Connection tab of
the Setup section. The Data File Path should also be completed.
A Call Schedule must also be defined for each logger in the list which is done by clicking on the
AutoPoll tab which brings up the following default call scheduler:
The default call schedule is a Single Call on January 1st at 00:00 (Midnight). When the PC calls the
logger, only the “new” data in the logger stored since the last data download will be retrieved.
Logger Tasks
Set Logger Clock—If the Set Logger Clock box is checked then, after the PC calls the logger and
the data download is complete, the PC will set the logger clock to the PC time.
Download Data—Data retrieval may be one of two options: Download All Data or Append New
Data. Append New Data is used for on-going metering projects and only data collected and stored
in the logger since the last download is retrieved. The new data is appended to the existing data file.
NOTE: When appending a data file, AutoPoll looks in the data folder specified in
the Tools: PC Setup for that logger. If the data file has been moved or this is the
first time the logger has been read and Append New Data is checked, then
AutoPoll will download the entire memory of the logger.
