TA D-LOGG, Manual

NOTE:

With the UVR1611 controller, output 14 (DL) can be used as both a data connection and
a control connection. For data logging, output 14 must therefore always be configured as
data line via the "Outputs" menu.

UVR1611
– Controllers from version A2.16 additionally allow network input variables to
be logged ( NETW.IP.=>DL.: yes ), which is then handled by the D-LOGG as a second vir-
tual UVR1611. Logging of network variables is thus not possible when two physical con-
trollers are connected to the data converter.

The D-LOGG requires more operating current than the EEG30 and TFM66 devices can
supply. When setting up a data connection between an EEG30 or TFM66 and the D-
LOGG data converter, an additional 1 kOhm resistor must be installed between the D0
and the Plus power supply terminal of the EEG30 or TFM66.

Logged data is lost when the number of data connections or the controller type is
changed!
USB Interface
The USB interface (slide switch in the "DL" position) does not represent an electrical connec-
tion between the data converter and the PC. For reasons of safety, it is electrically isolated
via optocouplers.
In the "USB" position, the slide switch creates an electrical connection to provide power for
the data converter from the PC. For this reason, the slide switch may only be set to the
"USB" position when no connection to a controller exists.
For communication between the PC and D-LOGG, a special driver is also required that cre-
ates a virtual COM interface in the PC, which is then used by the
Winsol or Memory Man-
ager programs to access the data converter. See also the chapter " USB driver ".
Software
Installation
The latest versions of the software are available for downloading at http://www.ta.co.at and
they overwrite the existing software without losing any previously stored data. However, it is
recommended to uninstall the existing versions of the software before installing new versions.
This only then removes the application and all data created with the application is retained.
CAUTION: Newer software versions are not always compatible with the version of the con-
verter operating system. The homepage provides information on this. It may be necessary to
also upgrade the data converter operating system (see
"
Memory Manager
"
).
Uninstalling
The programs can be uninstalled using the <add/remove programs> function in the Windows
control panel.
