Introduction
The Control Solutions VFC400-USB Vaccine temperature monitoring Data Logger
features a display, USB connectivity, data logging memory storing up to 16065
temperature readings per channel and a separate statistical memory, storing maximum
and minimum reading as well as alarm duration for each of the last 30 days.
During recording the display shows the following, alternating for each channel:
l
The current temperature (of the most recent reading)
l
The alarm status (within or outside the acceptance range)
l
An alarm trigger summary of up to the last 30 days (today and 29 days previous)
l
The current time and battery status
l
Minimum and maximum temperatures since the start of the trip
Alarm events can be triggered when a number of readings are outside pre-set
temperature thresholds, and a “day alarm indicator” appears on the display.
Logged temperature data can be viewed on any PC by plugging the unit into a
computer’s USB port via a micro-USB cable. A PDF file is generated, which can be
accessed using free PDF software such as Acrobat Reader. The VFC400-USB can also be
downloaded to the free companion software Control Solutions VTMC, where you can
display data in chart, list or summary formats. The software also allows electronic
archiving and exporting to Control Solution Web Base VTMC (Vaccine Temperature
Monitoring Cloud) for managing your region/clinical storage & handling needs.
