If the logger does not appear or if it is having trouble
connecting, follow these tips:
•
Make sure the logger is within range of your mobile
device or computer. The range for successful wireless
communication is approximately 30.5 m (100 ft) with full
line-of-sight.
•
If your device can connect to the logger intermittently or
loses its connection, move closer to the logger, within
sight if possible.
•
If the logger appears in the app, but you cannot connect
to it, close the app and then power down your device to
force the previous Bluetooth connection to close.
Once the logger is connected, you can:
Tap this:
To do this:
Specify logger settings and save them onto the
logger to start logging. See
Configuring the
Logger
.
Tap to view live data.
Stop a beeping alarm on the logger if audible
alarms are enabled as described in
Setting up
Alarms
.
Lock the logger. Set a password for the logger so
that it is not mistakenly stopped or reconfigured.
Tap the icon, enter a password, and then tap Set.
Once a password is entered on a phone or tablet,
that mobile device is the only one to
“remember” it. This means you can connect to
the logger without entering a password on that
mobile device, but you must enter a password on
all other mobile devices. For example, if you set
the password for the logger with your tablet and
then try to connect to the device later with your
phone, you must enter the password on the
phone but not with your tablet. Similarly, if
others attempt to connect to the logger with
different devices, they are also required to enter
the password.
To reset a password:
•
Simultaneously press both the Start/Stop
button and the Alarm/Stats button for 3
seconds, or
•
Tap Manage Password and then tap Reset.
Manage Password. Reset your existing password
or set a new password for the logger.
Stop logging data (this overrides any Stop
Logging settings described in
Configuring the
Logger
).
Start logging if the logger was configured to start
with a button push. See
Configuring the Logger
.
Download logger data. See Downloading Data
From the Logger.
Mark the logger as a favorite. You can then filter
the list of devices to show only loggers marked as
favorites.
Make the logger beep one time to help you
locate it. “HELLO” also appears on the LCD when
the logger is paged.
Update the firmware on the logger. A logger
readout will be completed automatically at the
beginning of the firmware update process.
Important:
Before updating the firmware on the
logger, check the remaining battery level and
make sure it is no less than 30%. Make sure you
have the time to complete the entire update
process, which requires that the logger remains
connected to the device during the upgrade.

The logger continues
recording data until the memory is full.
