User manual EUTECH INSTRUMENTS TEMPLOG DATALOGGER

[. . . ] Operating Instructions OAKTON 35710-series OaktonLog Temperature and Temperature/Humidity Data Loggers mode/send MAX Min/Max Day(s) %RH Min/Max Hour(s) Sample A single measurement taken by the data-logging device, and stored in its memory. In this manual, we refer to a sample as a single measurement from each of the selected sensors. Memory The OaktonLog's memory is where the recorded data are stored. The OaktonLog has 16, 000 bytes of memory capacity and can therefore store up to 16, 000 different measurements. [. . . ] Connecting the OaktonLog to the computer is a 3-step operation: 1. Hardware connection Connect the OaktonLog to the computer. Wake up the OaktonLog Open the OaktonLogs COM port for computer communication. Software Connection Establish a connection using MicroLab. Hardware Connection In your OaktonLog PC connection kit you will find a serial cable. One end of this cable connects to an empty serial port on the back of your computer. Note that you may need to use a 9/25-pin adapter (this applies mostly to non-Pentium computers). Connect the other end of this serial cable to the computer connection socket on the back of your OaktonLog device. Wake up the OaktonLog Since communication depletes battery life, the OaktonLog device is not generally open for communication. If you wish to transfer data to and from the OaktonLog, you have to first open the computer connection port manually by pressing both of the OaktonLogs keys simultaneously. The OaktonLogs LCD displays the status of the device, and from that moment the PC connection port is open for transmission. Please find the scheme of this procedure at page 12. Note: Communication between the PC and the OaktonLog device requires a free serial port. Software Connection In most cases, the OaktonLog will automatically connect to the software. You should be able to proceed to setting up the OaktonLog parameters (page 3) or downloading data (page 4). If there has been a communication problem or you have changed ports click the Connect icon on the left toolbar. This dialog box indicates which of the four possible serial ports on your computer are available for communication. Note that in the dialog box above COM 1, 2 and 4 are available for communication. Sample interval This digital display is used to determine the amount of time between every two samples taken by the OaktonLog. To change the sample interval, simply click on the digit that you wish to change. A click on the left mouse button makes the digit rise by one unit. A click on the right mouse button lowers it accordingly. [. . . ] This text message can be used to identify the OaktonLog, the cargo it monitors, or any other text you want to enter. After typing the text, click the Send button (make sure that the Comm port of the OaktonLog is open and that the OaktonLog is in Standby mode). The comment will be saved in the OaktonLogs memory and displayed as the main title of the data graph after the data are downloaded. Alarm Level In the left toolbar you find the Alarm icon. [. . . ]
