At the bottom of this section it displays <ConfigSens> again. Create a new line before this and type, or copy and paste the following:

<sens id="13" f="Rail Temp" lock="0" dp="0" units="mA" typ="nonlin" a="-110.13" b="20.961" c="-0.7242" zero="0" avg="DC RMS"/>

The sequence below shows an example of this.

There are usually 12 default sensor types already stored on the data logging unit.

It is important to increment the ‘id’ of the sensor that you have just added by making the ‘id’ 1 greater than the previous sensor, e.g. if the sensor previous to the newly added one has an id of 12 (id="12"),

then the newly added sensor requires an id of 13 (id="13"), to ensure that the id’s kept are unique.

The sensor name can be set by typing it into the f="" section.

Once this new line is entered press the ‘Set Config on Logger’ button in the top left hand corner of the page.
