Events With Entry Mode

When you collect data in Events With Entry mode, a data point is collected each time you click the Keep button . After Keep has been clicked, you will be asked to enter the value(s) for the column(s) that were created before data collection was begun. Each data point can be associated with up to 3 values. To set up data collection in Events with Entry mode:

1. Choose Data Collection from the Experiment menu.
2. Select the Number of Columns you would like to use. If you are collecting pressure as a function of volume, you only need to create one column: Volume. The Pressure column will be generated by the sensor. If you want to collect temperature data at several locations you may want to create 3 columns: Latitude, Longitude, and Elevation.
3. Enter the Column Name, Short Name (used when there is limited space), and Units.
4. Select OK.

Note: A tutorial covering Events with Entry data collection is available. Choose Open from the File menu, and then look in the Experiments folder.
