4 Testing Communication and Completing EZ Setup
Testing Communication and Completing EZ
Setup
1. Using datalogger support software EZ Setup, access the Communication Test window. This
window is accessed during EZ Setup (see "USB or RS-232 Communications" on page 2 for more
information). Alternatively, you can double-click a datalogger from the station list to open the EZ
Setup Wizard and access the Communication Test step from the left side of the window.
2. Ensure the datalogger is connected to the computer, select Yes to test the communication, then
click Next to initiate the test.
3. With a successful connection, the Datalogger Clock window displays the time for both the
datalogger and the computer.
• The Adjusted Server Date/Time displays the current reading of the clock for the computer
or server running your datalogger support software. If the Datalogger Date/Time and
Adjusted Server Date/Time don't match, you can set the datalogger clock to the Adjusted
Server Date/Time by clicking Set Datalogger Clock.
• Use the Time Zone Offset to specify a positive or negative offset to apply to the computer
time when setting the datalogger clock. This offset will allow you to set the clock for a
datalogger that needs to be set to a different time zone than the time zone of the computer
(or to accommodate for changes in daylight saving time).
4. Click Next.
5. The datalogger ships with a default QuickStart program. If the datalogger does not have a
program, you can choose to send one by clicking the Select and Send Program button. Click
Next.

or use the following instructions:
• The Datalogger Table Output Files window displays the data tables available to be
collected from the datalogger and the output file name. To include a data table in scheduled
collection, select the data table from the Tables list and check the Table Collected During
Data Collection box. Select a Data File Option: Append to End of File adds new data to the
end of the existing data file, Overwrite Existing File replaces the existing file with a newly
created file, and No Output File results in no data file being written to disk. Make note of the
Output File Name and location. Click Next.
• Check Scheduled Collection Enabled to have LoggerNet collect data from the datalogger
according to a schedule. Set the Base Date and Time to begin scheduled collections. Set a
Collection Interval, then click Next.
