key will be turned off to indicate the 

process has been halted. 
 
The following list is an example of data saved in the 
U2DATA.txt file on a flash drive. Time column indicates 
time in unit of seconds; t1, t2 and t1-t2 indicate 
temperature readings from sensor 1, sensor2 and difference 
of two sensors in Celsius. An “end” is written to the file 

when 

REC

 key has been turned off. 

Time         t1            t2           t1-t2

The above operations can be repeated to do multiple time 
data saving. 

 

7)

 

The temperature data file U2DATA.txt in the flash drive 
can be transferred to a computer. Just unplug the flash 

drive when it is stopped (when the LED above the 

REC

 key 

is off

and plug it into a computer’s USB connector. Once 

the flash drive is detected by the computer’s OS, users can 
copy the file over normally.

 

 

While using the flash drive, the data saving period can be adjusted 
with the front panel. The default saving period is 1.21 seconds
