ˇ Data Rollover Enabled and Data Rollover Occurred indicate the status of the data memory in the logger:

Data Rollover Enabled	Data Rollover Occurred	Status
OFF	OFF	The data rollover feature is not enabled in the logger
ON	OFF	The data rollover feature is enabled, but the recording has not reached the end of memory yet, so not data rollover has occurred.
ON	ON	Data rollover has occurred, and the earliest data samples are being overwritten with new ones.

ˇ Logger State shows the internal state of the logger:

State	Description
Powerup: Just Replaced Battery	A new battery has just been placed into the logger. The logger has not performed logging or calibration since the battery has been inserted.
Idle: Waiting For Setup	The logger is not logging. It is waiting for a setup command.
Waiting for door to close	Logging has been selected to start when the logger door is closed. The logger is waiting for the door to close to start logging.
Logging in Progress	The logger is currently logging data.
Waiting to log (Delayed Logging)	Logging has been selected to start at a future time. The logger is waiting for this time to arrive to start logging.

ˇ Sample Interval shows how often the logger is recording the data.

ˇ Logging Started At shows at what time the logging has started.

ˇ Active Channels shows what channels the logger was setup to log. The active channels are selected during logger setup.

ˇ Next Sample At shows the time and date at which the next sample will be recorded. This time may be off when a very fast sampling period is selected (less than 5 seconds).

ˇ Logger ID shows the unique logger ID assigned to the logger. This logger ID is assigned at the factory and can not be changed by the user.

ˇ Alarm Status shows what alarms if any occurred for each channel. If the alarm occurred, the corresponding indicator will light red.
