After a project has been setup, there are two ways to change the configuration and setup: the Setup Device Wizard or the Navigation Panel.
Setup Device Wizard
To add new project information, select Project | Setup Device Wizard from the iChart menu. This will open the Setup Device Wizard where new project information (e.g., new sites or sensors) can be added.
Note: Changes made in the Setup Device Wizard will not take effect without reprogramming the logger.

Navigation Panel
Changes can also be made to the existing data logger and sensor configuration in the Navigation Panel. Right-click on a data logger, sensor or parameter and select Property.
Figure 2: iChart Navigation Panel
This brings up the iSIC Data Logger Communication Properties, Sensor Properties or Parameter Properties menu, which allow users to:
• Change existing site names and descriptions.
• Change the iSIC address and COM port used by iChart to communicate with existing data loggers.
• Change existing sensor parameters, ranges, ports and other information.
• Change existing parameter names, units of measure and scaling.
Note: Many changes made in these menus will not take effect without reprogramming the logger through the Setup Device Wizard.
