SmartLog Pro®
Installation, Operation and Maintenance
Description
The SmartLog Pro® verifies the functionality of an
operator’s wrist strap and footwear, logs the test results,
and controls access to an ESD Protected Area.
The default test limits are set to:
Wrist Strap: 750 kilohms to 10 megohms
Footwear: 750 kilohms to 35 megohms
All operator test activity is logged into a database
to meet the ANSI/ESD S20.20 requirements for
on-going quality control purposes. Each log entry
includes operator identification, test results, resistance
measurements, time, temperature and humidity.
Operator identification and access control is initiated
with the embedded HID OMNIKEY® proximity reader,
barcode scanner or touchscreen keypad. Access control
to an ESD Protected Area can be further enforced by
using the relay terminal on the SmartLog Pro®. It can
be connected to an electronic door lock or turnstile
to grant access only to those who have passed their
pre-defined ESD tests and been given clearance to the
area.

Figure 1. EMIT 50780 SmartLog Pro®
The SmartLog Pro® offers three operator identification
methods: HID OMNIKEY® proximity reader, barcode
scanner and touchscreen keypad. The five-inch color
touchscreen provides an intuitive user interface for easy
test operation and a clear indication of test results.
The operator average test time is 2 seconds. Internal
flash memory allows operators to continue using the
tester even if network failure were to occur. All test
transactions would download to the database once the
network connection is restored.
The TEAM5 Software can generate automated reports
that may be e-mailed to track short term and long term
corrective actions. Test limits and test parameters (wrist
strap only, footwear only, wrist strap and footwear, etc.)
may be customized with the software to meet special
requirements. The SmartLog Pro® is calibrated to NIST
traceable standards.
ESD Association Information
“Compliance verification should be performed prior to
each use (daily, shift change, etc.). The accumulation
of insulative materials may increase the foot grounder
system resistance. If foot grounders are worn outside
the ESD protected area testing for functionality
before reentry to the ESD protected area should be
considered.” ESD SP9.2 APPENDIX B - Foot Grounder
Usage Guidance
“Process monitoring (measurements) shall be conducted
in accordance with a Compliance Verification Plan that
identifies the technical requirements to be verified, the
measurements limits and the frequency at which those
verifications shall occur...Compliance verification records
shall be established and maintained to provide evidence
of conformity to the technical requirements.
The test equipment selected shall be capable of
making the measurements defined in the Compliance
Verification Plan.” (ANSI/ESD S20.20) section 7.3
ANSI/ESD S20.20 Table 1 Flooring-Footwear Systems
Technical Requirements Recommended Range “less
than 3.5 x 10
7
ohms measured per ANSI/ESD STM
97.1.”
“Typical test programs recommend that wrist straps that
are used daily should be tested daily. However, if the
products that are being produced are of such value that
knowledge of a continuous, reliable ground is needed,
and then continuous monitoring should be considered or
even required.” (ESD Handbook ESD TR 20.20 section
5.3.2.4.4)
Note: SmartLog Pro® provides wrist strap test per IEC
61340-5-1 Clause A.1 and footwear testing per IEC
61340-5-1 Clause A.2 with upper limits < 3.5 x 10
7
ohms.
