For WatchDog weather stations, the LCD can be acti-
vated by hitting the DISPLAY button.
To offload a data logger, connect the interface cable to
the shuttle and to the computer port of the data logger.
Press the green button on the shuttle to initiate data
transfer. The data logger will automatically be
relaunched after the data is offloaded (confirm this by
observing the LED or LCD on the logger). When a
logger has been completely offloaded and relaunched,
the shuttle’s LCD screen will read “no. X”, where X
indicates how many loggers have been offloaded up to
that point. It also identifies where that logger’s data is
located in the shuttle’s memory.
If, after offloading a logger, the shuttle no longer has
room for another logger, the LCD screen will read
“FULL”. No further data can be transferred to the
shuttle until it is downloaded and relaunched.
CAUTION: If a logger battery is < 25%, the LCD
screen will read “Lo b”. At this point, the logger
battery must be replaced to continue data transfer and
relaunch. The logger will not resume operation until
the battery is replaced.
It is recommended that spare logger batteries be
available when using the shuttle to avoid gaps in your
data files. Whenever replacing a battery in a logger in
the field (even one that does not register a low battery
reading from the shuttle) you should replace the battery
BEFORE offloading the logger. If the battery is re-
placed after offloading the data logger, the logger will
be shut off and not recording data. In this case, offload
the logger again with the shuttle. The saved data file
will not be important because it will only contain one
