Cool down Delay:
After setting desired temperature range, the cool down delay will allow for placement
of Boomerang 2 to acclimate to controlled temperature before any alert is issued. Boomerang will
record all temperatures during the "cool down delay" but will not activate the red LED on the face of the
Boomerang 2 until the delay period has ended.
Audible Beeper:
Boomerang 2 has a built-in audible beeper. If enabled, this feature simplifies locating
the unit in a crowded cooler or trailer. Or, disable to silence this feature. Beeper Delay provides a
specific time period for placement of the Boomerang 2 before activation of the beeper.
Sampling interval:
The "Sampling Interval" indicates how frequently Boomerang 2 samples and records
temperatures. Click on the box appropriate for sampling interval desired.
Identification:
Option to enter identifying information in 2 fields, such as cooler name, and
trailer/driver, etc. This information will be listed on all charts and reports.
