The interval trend time is set using either the Data Log Interval menu item in the Eagle 2 Setup Mode or the Interval Trend Time item in the Set window. See “Changing Eagle 2 Instrument Parameters” on page 77 or the Eagle 2 Operator’s Manual for instructions to set the interval trend time. Events such as gas alarms or sensor failures are saved in the interval trend data file when they occur. Figure 25: Save as Dialog Box Viewing, Printing, Exporting, and Deleting Data in the Data Window • 35An interval trend data file is created and saved in the Eagle 2 when the instrument is turned off or when a user ID, station ID, or catalytic combustible channel gas configuration (using the relative response feature in Display Mode) is changed during operation. The serial number, user ID, station ID, and catalytic combustible channel configuration that are entered in the instrument when it is turned on or that are updated during operation are saved for the corresponding interval trend file. If the instrument’s user ID or station ID are changed during operation, any interval trend files that result from subsequent operating sessions will have the new user ID or station ID saved in them. If the catalytic combustible channel gas configuration is changed during operation using the relative response feature in Display Mode, the new configuration will be saved in the data until it is changed or the unit is turned off. Any catalytic combustible channel gas configuration changes made using the relative response feature in Display Mode are cleared when the unit is turned off and the unit returns to its original configuration when it is turned on.The data may be viewed either in table format or graph format if at least 5 scheduled data points have been logged at the programmed interval trend time. This does not include events. If an interval data file has fewer than five scheduled data points, the graph controls are not functional and the data cannot be graphed. 36 • Viewing, Printing, Exporting, and Deleting Data in the Data WindowTo view and perform desired operations with the interval trend files: 1.

Depending on the length of the data session, data sessions that show changing readings will normally have more choices for zoom levels than sessions that show stable data to allow for viewing of gas reading changes in greater detail.• When selected, the Event feature shows on the graph where each channel went into and out of alarm and at what concentration each event occurred.• When selected, the Cursor feature allows you to display the gas reading and log time for each data point saved on the graph. The number of data points on the graph is minimized depending on the length of a data session by several means including omitting consecutive data points that have the same gas readings. As you use the left and right arrow buttons on your keyboard to move the cursor across the graph horizontally, readings at specific log times are displayed. Use the up and down arrows on the keyboard to move the readings up or down on the screen.• The catalytic combustible channel can be graphed in %LEL, ppm, or %volume units. While readings can be recorded in any of these units and stored in the same file, those readings may only be graphed in one unit at a time. If %LEL is chosen as the unit, any ppm or %volume data is converted and graphed as %LEL. The user may change back and forth between the units for the graph and still have all data shown. The CAT Range Select box is where the user may select %LEL, ppm, or % volume as the units for the graph. The box just to the right of the selection dots shows what channel the catalytic combustible detector is associated with and what color it is displayed in on the graph.

If a gas alarm event occurs, then an alarm trend file that is centered around the event is saved separately from the interval trend data files. It shows the readings up to 30 minutes before and 30 minutes after the event, with the log interval time every five seconds. The gas readings logged at the alarm event time are highlighted in red and the gas readings logged every 5 seconds around the alarm event are the peak (minimum for oxygen) readings for the previous five seconds. If the Eagle 2 has not been on for 30 minutes before the alarm event occurs, the data during this time is left blank. If the Eagle 2 is turned off less than 30 minutes after an alarm event occurs, the data file will only have logged data until the unit was turned off.The Eagle 2 saves up to 8 alarm trend files. When an alarm event triggers an alarm trend file to be saved, subsequent alarm events must occur 15 minutes after the previous triggering event in order to trigger the saving of another alarm trend file. If 8 alarm trend files are already saved in the Eagle 2’s memory, the oldest alarm trend file is overwritten when a new alarm trend file is saved. Alarm trend data can always be displayed in either table or graph format.

If the Eagle 2 fails calibration on any of its channels, those channels will retain the previous calibration information.NOTE: If a unit is calibrated using Single Calibration in the Eagle 2’s Calibration Mode (see the Eagle 2 Operator’s Manual) it is possible for the “After” reading to be different from the “A.Cal” setting if the unit was set to a level different than the “A.Cal” setting.• Cal. Due (Days) — shows when calibration is due in days (e.g., “Remaining 25 Day” means that calibration is due in 25 days, and “Now” means that calibration is due immediately).It is not possible to print any information when the Calibration Record view option is selected.To view and print all past calibrations for an instrument, see “Calibration History” on page 26.Deleting Last Calibration DataTo delete an instrument and its calibration data from the Last Calibration Window: 1.

Figure 61: Delete History Window Calibrating an Eagle 2 With The Eagle 2 Data Logger Management Program • 73Calibrating an Eagle 2 With The Eagle 2 Data Logger Management ProgramAn Eagle 2 can be calibrated using the Eagle 2 Data Logger Management Program. The calibration function is available in the Set window. To perform a calibration you will need a calibration kit. This section describes calibration using a calibration kit that includes a demand flow regulator. If a calibration kit is used that includes a sample bag and a dispensing valve instead of a demand flow regulator, connect a sample bag filled with calibration gas to the Eagle 2’s probe tube when applying gas instead of connecting the demand flow regulator to the Eagle 2’s probe tube.To calibrate the Eagle 2, you will need the following items:• Known calibrating samples of the gases being detected. The combustible and toxic gas samples should have concentrations in approximately the middle of the range of detection. For the standard 4-gases, a 3-gas or 4-gas mix, depending on your instrument version, is recommended so that all channels may be calibrated at once.• If an optional sensor is installed, this sensor will probably need to be calibrated individually because its target gas is not included in a 3-gas or 4-gas mix. The available optional sensors are PID, ESM-01, IR, or TC sensors.• A demand-flow regulator to provide adequate sample gas flow.• Non-absorbent tubing to connect the regulator to the Eagle 2’s probe tube. 74 • Calibrating an Eagle 2 With The Eagle 2 Data Logger Management Pro-CAUTION: Calibration using the Eagle 2 Data Logger Management Program should be done in a fresh air environment, an area free of combustible and toxic gases and of normal oxygen content (20.9%). If you suspect the area is not a fresh air environment, apply zero air to the instrument when performing a zero operation.To calibrate an Eagle 2, perform the following steps: 1. Install the Eagle 2’s probe on the inlet fitting. 2. Launch the Eagle 2 Data Logger Management Program. 3. If Automatic Download is selected, deselect it. The Eagle 2 will be turned off by the program after an automatic download, so calibration will not be possible if Automatic Download is selected. 4. Connect an Eagle 2 to the program. See “Downloading Data from the Eagle 2” on page 15 and follow instructions 1-3 to connect an instrument to the program. 5. Once the connection is made, the Complete Download, Instrument Information, Clear Logger Data, and Power Off download commands will be selectable. Click the Instrument Information download command to retrieve the instrument information from the Eagle 2.
