BATTERY REPLACEMENT
Each time the battery is installed,
the logger enters in reset status
and displays the “PC” message.
Then it starts calculate the remain-
ing battery life and displays the
level through a 4-tag indicator.
When the last tag (empty battery) starts blinking,
the battery level is below 5%. It is recommended
to change the battery with a new one.
Battery replacement must only take place in a safe area and
using the appropriate battery type (CR2032 3V lithium battery).
Note:
It is recommended to use a new battery for replace-
ment, otherwise the battery level indication could be
not reliable.
When the battery needs to be replaced, open the battery
compartment cover on the rear of the logger using a small coin.
Turn counter-clockwise to open.
Insert the new battery with the
+ sign facing up, tight back the
compartment cover and program
the instrument.
Note:
Dispose of the lithium (Li) battery according to local
regulations.
DATA TRANSFER TO PC
To download logged data, remove the logger from its instal-
lation and place it on
HI 143001
or
HI 143002
communication
cradle connected to an RS232 or USB port of your PC.
The memory content can then be downloaded from the
instrument to the PC using the Windows
®
compatible applica-
tion software offered by Hanna Instruments.
This software allows you to use the powerful capabilities of
most spread sheet programs (e.g. Excel
©
, Lotus 1-2-3
©
) and
to make any elaboration available (e.g. graphics, statistic
analysis, etc.).
The user-friendly on-line help and clear messages will support
you throughout any situation.
During the data transfer the yellow LED on the cradle blinks
to indicate that the communication is active.
Do not remove
the logger while the LED is blinking
.
TECHNICAL SERVICE
This instrument has been accurately pre-calibrated at the
factory; anyway, it is generally recommended to have all
thermometers recalibrated at least once a year.
For an accurate recalibration, contact the nearest Hanna
Customer Service Center.
OPERATIONAL GUIDE
INITIAL OPERATION
The logger is supplied complete with a CR2032 lithium
battery. Open the battery comparment cover on the rear of
the logger (see “Battery Replacement” section for details),
insert the battery with the + sign facing up and tight back
the compartment cover.
The display will show the “PC” message
to indicate that the logger needs to be
programmed through a PC.
STARTUP
In order to communicate with the logger, the application
software must be installed on your PC.
Connect the
HI 143001
or
HI 143002
communication cradle
to your computer through an available RS232 or USB port,
and place the
HI 143
on the cradle.
Run the application software. The yellow LED on the cradle
blinks to indicate that the communication is active.
Do not
remove the logger while the LED is blinking
.
The following operating parameters can be set:
• Measure unit: °C or °F
• Starting type: PC, button or at time (hh:mm:ss)
• Logging type: wrap-around, until memory is full (4000
samples) or number of samples (max 4000)
• Logging interval: from 1 minute to 24 hours (10 sec. steps)
• High and Low alarm thresholds
• Protection password
Click on the “PROGRAM” key to program the logger with the
selected options.
If the starting type was set to “PC”, then the “START” key will
become active. Click to start.
If the starting type was set to “button”, then the logger
display will indicate that the logger button has to be pressed
to start logging. Keep the button pressed for about 3 seconds.
If the starting type was set to “at time”, then the logger will
automatically start logging at the programmed time.
BUTTON FUNCTIONS
Pressing the logger button will give different outputs depend-
ing on the logger status.
• If the logger is in “WAIT TO LOG” condition, then pressing
the button will cycle through current measurement, high
and low alarm thresholds.
• If the logger is in “LOG” or “LOG DONE” condition, then
pressing the button will cycle through current measure-
ment, maximum and minimum recorded values.
If you keep the button pressed, after 2 seconds the display
will show alternatively (toggle every 2 seconds) the high
and low alarm thresholds.
Notes:
• If an alarm threshold has not been
set, then the logger will display the
“diS” (disabled) message.
• If an alarm condition has been occurred during logging,
then in the “LOG” or “LOG DONE” status the correspond-
ing alarm indication (ALARM HI or ALARM LO) will blink.
WALL INSTALLATION
The logger is supplied complete with wall cradle and lock
(mounting materials as screws and dowels are not included).
Position the wall cradle at the desired
location and fix it to the wall with
proper screws.
Insert the logger into the cradle and secure it with the
