Error on command

Hi,
I am a newbie in using the data taker.
I was trying to create a schedule to read a DI every second for 1 minute.
Then i deleted this schedule and i wanted to create another one..but this time any typr of codefor schedule i try to run is giving me this errror
Cannot log: job untitled has existing data/alarms
I have used deld..to delete all the data but it says there is no job ..
This happened since yesterday.
Today i powered it on again and was complainig that it cant self test..but the error dissappeared after i have acknowledge it
But when tryin to run a schedule it still gives me the same error.
What i need to do?

Hi Gabrielaf,

When you failed to send a new job to the logger, the existing job will become dormant and stop running thus DELD command will give no effect. If you remember the job name, please use DELD"jobname".

Or for a quick solution you can use DELALLJOBS command but beware that command will delete any previous jobs together with their data.

Self test error usually appear when there is a ground loop in the logger, the best testing toll would be disconnecting all sensors and sending TEST command. If the logger is OK the result of TEST would be PASSED.
