RBRsolo and RBRduet operation and maintenance 

This section of the manual covers the basic operation of the RBRsolo and RBRduet data 
logger: changing the battery, inspecting and replacing O-rings, inserting desiccant, etc.  
Please see the Ruskin RBRsolo and RBRduet manual for instructions relating to logger 
programming and data retrieval.   

 

Opening and closing the logger 

 

To open an RBRsolo/duet  logger, unscrew the sensor end counter-clockwise while holding 
on to the yellow housing.  Once fully unscrewed, the housing can be carefully slid away from 
the sensor end cap, revealing the sensor carriage. 

The sensor carriage contains the battery compartment; desiccant holder and USB port (Figs. 1 
and 2).
