Operating the Logger
USRID-16W User Guide
22
While a USRID-16W is plugged into USB, no temperature readings are taken. The
graph will display a gap and the data list will show
---
followed by the
#
symbol.
Accessing the files
If the logger was configured to generate files, a new drive letter or mounted device will
appear. The device name will be created from the serial number of the USRID-16W. You
can access the files by browsing to the newly created drive and double-clicking the PDF,
CSV or LTD files.
l
For PDF files you need Adobe Acrobat Reader or a similar PDF viewer.
l
To open the LTD file you need to install the free LogTag
®
Analyzer software.
l
CSV files can be opened with a text editor, or imported into a spreadsheet program
such as Microsoft
®
Excel.
To retain the logger-generated files, copy them to a permanent storage location
on your computer, such as the
Documents
folder, as they are not automatically
copied.
The data on the logger is retained. Each time you plug the USRID-16W back into
the computer the files are re-generated. Once the battery is exhausted, the real
time clock on the unit stops and dates and times for the retained data may no
longer be accurate. You will, however, still be able to access the last trip's data.
