The next step, after configuring sites and parameters, is to add Loggers to sites (Figure 3-8).

>>Note: Data loggers must be added to sites BEFORE channels are configured. Channels are added to loggers after the loggers are set up.

Still in the Configuration Editor,

• select Data Source Details,
• select a Site,
• then click the Add button and
• select Logger (Figure 3-8).
• enter a Source Name, e.g., 01Logger,
• the Logger ID, e.g., 01,
• select a Logger Type from the drop down list, e.g., 8832,
• and click Enabled.
• ptionally, you can enter a Description and select Debounce Digital Inputs.
• Click the Save button.

Note that if the # of input and output cards on your data logger are not equal, you may encounter some download errors when downloading the labels. If this is the case, you should define the actual number of phystical inputs and outputs using the "IO Labels" tab. If you are using pseudo inputs/outputs, do NOT accept allowing the system to change the # of labels.
