Hi i am looking to save to a CV channel the time stamp of when temperature sensor connected to the DT85 reaches a certain temperature 75C. therefore the CV channel will merely have the time this occurred

Hi Alan,

You can set the conditional statement to record time channel (T) after reading the temperature.
Example:

1TK(=1CV)
IF(1CV>100){T(=2CV)}
2CV("Time")

However, the CV value will be the number of seconds since midnight which requires you to calculate back the hour and minute.

Rather than the above process, I believe attaching an alarm text would be much better as you can see the text in your data file (serve as a flag).

1TK(=1CV)
IF(1CV>100){1$="ALARM"}
IF(1CV<100){1$=""}
1$("Condition")

Best regards,
