1. INSTALLATION GUIDELINES

 

The device is designed so as to ensure an appropriate level of immunity to most interferences that may occur in 
industrial environments. In environments of unknown level of interferences, it is recommended to implement the 
following measures so as to prevent potential interference with the operation of the device: 

 

use shielded sensor, and signal cables, whereby the earthing of the shield should be single-point and located 

       as close to the device as possible; 

 

avoid running measurement (signal) cables in the direct vicinity of and parallel to power and supply cables; 

 

it is recommended to use twisted pair signal cables; 

 

in the case of sensing resistors in 3-wire connections, use identical wires; 

 

avoid proximity of remotely controlled devices, electromagnetic meters, high power loads, loads with phase or 

       group power control, and other devices that cause high impulse disturbances; 

 

ground or zero metal rails on which rail-mounted devices are installed. 

 

Make sure to remove the protective film from the LCD display before the first use of the device. 

 

2. GENERAL CHARACTERISTICS OF THE RECORDER 

 

recording of data from the measurement input and the internal temperature sensor; 

 

1 universal measurement input (thermoresistance, thermocouple, and analog) and integrated digital 
temperature sensor; 

 

data recording in a standard text file located in the internal memory of the recorder or on an SD/MMC card in 
the FAT system, with the possibility to read through the USB interface; 

 

portable housing suitable for wall installation; 

 

battery power supply with the possibility that the user changes the battery; 

 

long operation time with a new battery (up to 5 years, depending on the recording interval, the presence of 
an SD card, and the operating temperature of the device); 

 

possibility to transfer archived and configuration data on an SD card; 

 

internal real time clock with a battery backup power supply; 

 

compensation of line resistance for resistance sensors (automatic or permanent); 

 

compensation of thermocouple cold tip temperature (automatic or permanent); 

 

free software included that enables configuration of the parameters of the device and presentation of the 
recorded results in a graphic form or as text; possibility to update from a website; 

 

programmable type of input, range of indications, recording interval, start and end of recording, and other 
configuration parameters, such as zero and sensitivity calibration, SD/MMC card options, and identification 
number (ID); 

 

possibility to prevent unauthorized change of the recorder’s parameters from the SD/MMC card and transfer 
of archived data from the internal memory onto an SD/MMC card (authorization of the card or free access is 
required); 

 

parameter configuration methods: 

 

through a USB outlet and software (Windows 7/8/10); 

 

from a configuration file recorded on an SD/MMC card; 

 

a checksum that enables detecting unauthorized modifications of the archive; 

 

possibility to differentiate archives from many recorders of the same type by assigning individual 
identification (ID) numbers; 

 

recording of data until the memory is full, full memory signalization; 

 

possibility to update the recorder’s software; 

 

high temperature stability of measurements, accuracy, and immunity to interferences; 

 

protection against incorrect battery polarity; 

 

available accessories:  

 

- a lithium battery, 3.6 V, type AA (R6), 2450 mAh (e.g. SAFT LS14500);
