Read out (offload) logger data. See 

Reading Out 

the Logger

 

Start logging if the logger was configured to start 
with a button push. See 

Configuring the Logger

 

Stop the logger from recording data (this 
overrides any Stop Logging settings described in 

Configuring the Logger

). 

 

Make the logger beep one time to help you 
locate it. “HELLO” also appears on the LCD when 
the logger is paged. 

 

Stop a beeping alarm on the logger if audible

connect to it. To reset a password, 
simultaneously press both the Start/Stop button 
and the Clear/Next button on the top of the 

logger for 3 seconds or tap 

 and tap Reset.

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.

 Tapping this icon 

 is only required when using the 

app on an iPhone®, iPad®, or Android device.
