The Whole Round Multisensor Logger (WRMSL) and Special Track Task Multisensor Logger (STMSL) are two whole-round systems which allow simultaneous measurements of density, magnetic susceptibility and Pwave velocity. The WRMSL and STMSL are the only two systems, which allow continuous core sections section measurements, one after another.
Note: Both tracks function the same way; however, WRMSL measures density, magnetic susceptibility and P wave velocity, whereas STMSL only measures density and magnetic susceptibility.

- Double-click the MUT icon on the desktop (Figure 1a) and login using ship credentials. For more information on data upload see the "Uploading Data to LIMS" section below.
- Double-click the IMS icon (Figure 1b). IMS initialize's initializes the instrument and checks the movement of the track. Once initialized, the logger is ready to measure the first section.

- Core sections measured on the WRMSL and STMSL can be run either immediately after "Core on Deck" or after they have reached temperature equilibrium. The only caveat, is that Pwave velocity, cannot be run "cold" and should only be measured at Pwave velocity if affected by temperature and should be run at a constant temperature for each section. We suggest room temperature (~ 19°C). Temperature Reach temperature equilibrium takes approximately 4 hours.
