Resetting the device
Very infrequently something goes wrong and the
microprocessor in the MAT-1 Data Logger will
crash and need to be reset. For loggers with serial
numbers less than 2006000, the battery must be
disconnected for 60+ seconds and then
reconnected. The red and green LEDs should flash
three times. Loggers with serial numbers of
2006000 and greater contain a reset button. The
button can be pressed with a small object such as
the end of a pen or pencil (avoid metal objects
that could short with the circuity). The reset
button is located to the right of the USB port and is
a small black rectangle. Press briefly and the green
and red LEDs should blink three times. If they do
not, then either the battery is dead or there is
something more seriously wrong with the logger.
10.3
Serial Number
Each logger has a date & serial number laser-etched on the side of the case. The serial number includes
a date code in the first four digits with the format YYMM. For example, the code 2008123 is decoded as:
Year Month Number
20
08
123
