HOBO® 4-Channel Pulse Input
Data Logger (UX120-017x) Manual
14638-E
The HOBO 4-Channel Pulse Input data logger records electronic pulses and mechanical or
electrical contact closures from external sensing devices. Using HOBOware®, you can easily
configure each of its four channels to monitor and record pulse, event, state, or runtime data in
a wide variety of applications, including tracking building energy consumption, monitoring
mechanical equipment, and recording water and gas flow rates. Plus, when combined with the
E50B2 Energy & Power Meter (T-VER-E50B2), this logger provides extensive power and energy
monitoring capabilities. There are two models of the HOBO 4-Channel Pulse Input data logger:
the UX120-017 stores more than 500,000 measurements while the UX120-017M holds more
than 4,000,000 measurements.
