readings

 

between

 

each

 

logging

 

interval

 

(one

 

sample

 

every

 

5

 

seconds

 

for

 

a

 

minute)

 

and

 

use

 

the

 

12

 

samples

 

to

 

record

 

the

 

resulting

 

statistics

 

at

 

each

 

1

minute

 

logging

 

interval.

 

Note

 

that

 

the

 

more

 

frequent

 

the

 

sampling

 

rate,

 

the

 

greater

 

the

 

impact

 

on

 

battery

 

life.

 

In

In

 

the

 

app:

 

Tap

 

Done

 

or

 

Save.

 

Tap

 

Start

 

in

 

HOBOmobile

 

or

 

 

in

 

HOBOconnect.

 

In

 

HOBOware:

 

Click

 

OK

 

in

 

the

 

Burst

 

Logging

 

window

 

and

 

then

 

click

 

Start

 

in

 

the

 

Launch

 

Logger

 

window

 

when

 

ready.

 

Once

 

logging

 

begins,

 

press

 

the

 

Clear/Next

 

button

 

on

 

the

 

logger

 

to

 

cycle

 

through

 

the

 

current

 

maximum,

 

minimum,

 

average,

 

and

 

standard

 

deviation

 

data

 

on

 

the

 

LCD

 

screen.

 

Note

 

that

 

the

 

logger

 

will

 

always

 

display

 

the

 

current

 

sensor

 

readings

 

in

 

the

 

app

 

(If

 

applicable)

 

even

 

if

 

they

 

are

 

not

 

being

 

logged.

 

You

 

can

 

plot

 

the

 

statistics

 

series

 

once

 

you

 

read

 

out

 

the

 

logger.

  

Setting

 

a

 

Password

 

You

 

can

 

create

 

an

 

encrypted

 

password

 

for

 

the

 

logger

 

that

 

will

 

be

 

required

 

if

 

another

 

phone

 

or

 

tablet

 

attempts

 

to

 

connect

 

to

 

it.

 

This

 

is

 

recommended

 

to

 

ensure

 

that

 

a

 

deployed

 

logger

 

is

 

not

 

mistakenly

 

stopped

 

or

 

purposely

 

altered

 

by

 

others.

 

This

 

password

 

uses

 

a

 

proprietary

 

encryption

 

algorithm

 

that

 

changes

 

with

 

every

 

connection.

 

To

 

set

 

a

 

password:

 

1.

 

Tap

 

the

 

Devices

 

icon

 

(in

 

HOBOmobile,

 

tap

 

Loggers

 

at

 

the

 

top

 

of

 

the

 

screen).

 

Tap

 

the

 

logger

 

in

 

the

 

app

 

to

 

connect

 

to

 

it.

 

2.

 

Tap

 

Logger

 

Password

 

in

 

HOBOmobile

 

or

 

tap

 

 

and

 

then

 

 

in

 

HOBOconnect.

 

3.

 

Type

 

a

 

password

 

and

 

then

 

tap

 

Save

 

or

 

Set.

 

Only

 

the

 

phone

 

or

 

tablet

 

used

 

to

 

set

 

the

 

password

 

can

 

then

 

connect

 

to

 

the

 

logger

 

without

 

entering

 

a

 

password;

 

all

 

other

 

mobile

 

devices

 

will

 

be

 

required

 

to

 

enter

 

the

 

password.

 

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

 

will

 

be

 

required

 

to

 

enter

 

the

 

password

 

on

 

the

 

phone

 

but

 

not

 

with

 

your

 

tablet.

 

Similarly,

 

if

 

others

 

attempt

 

to

 

connect

 

to

 

the

 

logger

 

with

 

different

 

devices,

 

then

 

they

 

would

 

also

 

be

 

required

 

to

 

enter

 

the

 

password.

 

To

 

reset

 

a

 

password,

 

Press

 

both

 

the

 

Start/Stop

 

button

 

and

 

the

 

Clear/Next

 

button

 

simultaneously

 

for

 

3

 

seconds

 

to

 

reset

 

a

 

logger

 

password,

 

or

 

connect

 

to

 

the

 

logger

 

and

 

then

 

tap

 

Set
