Timed logging

Hi I am attempting to program a dt85 to run schedule A and schedule B between the times of 5:00am and 11:00pm and then halt schedule A & B between the times 11:00pm & 5:00am.
i am using delogger 5 pro and i have tried the following
RD("B:",ALARMS:OV:100KB,DATA:OV:1MB)1S LOGOND GD
ALARM1(3ST("Time")><5.0000,23.0000)"ON"{[GA GB]}
ALARM1(3ST("Time")<>5.0000,23.0000)"ON"{[HA HB]}

I have tried various commands within the alarm i have even tried to put 1 alarm only in to run with the GA GB command but no matter what i try the logger will run the halt alarm but will not run the go alarm.

I have run schedules and manually halted them and waited for the alarm condition to be met
RD("B:",ALARMS:OV:100KB,DATA:OV:1MB)1S LOGOND GD
ALARM1(3ST("Time")>5.0000)"ON"{[GA GB]}

To see if the Go command run but still no luck. i have also sent the GA command to the logger via the text window in delogger and this works but not via the alarm.
your urgent assistance would be appreciated.

Hi Stephen,

I think it would be easier if you simplified the logic and used.
RD("B:",ALARMS:OV:100KB,DATA:OV:1MB)1S LOGOND GD
ALARM1(3ST("Time")>5.0000)"ON"{[GA GB]}
ALARM1(3ST("Time")>23.0000)"OFF"{[HA HB]}

If you are not using dEX or DeLogger but cutting dataTaker code then this is really simple you use a CRON schedule trigger.
Please make sure you are running 9.08 firmware as CRON is a very recent feature.
For example the CRON schedule trigger
RA[::5-23]
Will start the schedule at 5 AM and stop it at 11 PM .

Cheers,
Roger

Hi Roger,
I am using delogger 5 pro for programming i have also tried the example you have given but the logger will halt but it will not Go upon the alarm.

I am using the alarm tab in delogger 5 program window to set the alarm. I have pasted the alarm code setup for the GA GB in the program window of delogger into the text window command window and sent just that line of code and this works whereby the halted schedules run but they simply wont run from the alarm programmed in the delogger program builder.

There is a total of 6 DT85's around the world with the same program i have supplied to one customer all have been programmed with delogger as client also has dt800's and is using delogger.

If you wish you can connect to the PC the logger is connected to with teamviewer.

Hi Stephen,

Then there is something else happening here.
Make sure the alarms are being run from a schedule that is not being started or stopped by the alarms etc.

Give me a call if you want.

Cheers,
Roger
