INTRODUCTION
The SpaceLogger
®
.S10 is designed as a stand-alone data logger for serial data logging from a wide
range of devices and sensors with RS232 output.
SpaceLogger.S10 records samples of data from up to two RS232 data sources.
Each data record is date & time-stamped. A new file (default format is .CSV) is generated for
each day’s worth of data.
Data is stored onto an SD card. SD cards with up to 2 GByte capacity are compatible with
SpaceLogger. Higher capacity cards are not compatible. SpaceLogger will also accept other
compatible data storage cards, such as MMC and MMC mobile.
The SD card can be removed from the logger and inserted into a card reader connected to a PC.
Stored data files are accessed in the same way as files on the computer's other disk drives. The
text files may be read and manipulated in any standard Office applications (e.g. Notepad or MS
Excel).
The SpaceLogger.S10 will also output RS232 data to another device. Refer to section 5.15 for
details.
The logger requires a 7 - 30 volt DC supply which can be provided by an AC/DC mains adaptor or
suitable battery.
