Modes of Operation
Stand-Alone
Once the measurement setup has been defined for the INNOVA 1221 and the transducers, the PC can be disconnected,
allowing the data logger to operate as a stand-alone unit. All measurement data from the transducers is transferred
to the data logger and stored in the internal memory. Storage capacity is dependent on measurement interval. For
example, up to one week’s worth of measurement data can be stored if a 10 minute measurement interval is selected.
On-Line
If real-time measurement data is desired, simply retain the connection between the PC and the 1221. The RS-232 inter-
face enables real-time measurement data to be transferred to the PC and displayed on screen as graphs. The measured
data is stored in an SQL2005 Server database and can be imported into Excel using the Excel software provided.
