Plugging the UTRED-16 into a USB port
As soon as you plug the UTRED-16 into a USB port, the word
USb
appears.
If you have configured the logger to generate files,
USb
remains turned on until all files
have been generated.
During the file generation a small animation will play on the display.
As soon as the file generation is finished,
USb
will blink every second to indicate these files
can now be accessed.
These files are generated each time you plug the logger into the USB port,
regardless of whether the logger is still recording readings or not.
What happens on your computer depends on the operating system of the computer, the
settings made during configuration and whether or not LogTag
®
Analyzer is running.
Microsoft Windows
Up to four drivers will now be installed, depending on the UTRED-16's configuration.
All drivers are part of the operating system and will typically not require administrator
privileges for your computer.
1.
Mass Storage Device
2.
LogTag Mass Storage USB Device
These two devices are required so you can access the data files in the same way as a
USB memory stick. These drivers will not be installed if the UTRED-16 does not
generate files.
3.
USB Input Device (HID)
This device is used for communication to LogTag
®
Analyzer and its driver will always
be installed, even if LogTag
®
Analyzer is not present on the computer.
