A scan is started by pressing a
pushbutton, at a defined date, by a
programming command or by a
digital signal.
It is finished either by another
programming command, by turn-
ing off the device or when the
storage capacity is reached (not in
Loop Mode
).
Afterwards, the measuring data are
read out and sent to the PC for
processing.
Unlike the
Continuous Mode
, you
can also interrupt a scan in
Alarm
Mode
by turning off the device and
continuing afterwards.
As a device of the meM-series, the
meM-LOG-SE
is provided with a
USB connection, which means
... high transmission rates
of the measuring data ...
from the data acquisition system to
the PC. In addition, the logger
features a serial connection
(RS232) so that the device can be
used together with all operating
systems supporting the serial inter-
face (even Linux!). That means
that also
... transmission by modem ...
is possible.
If not only voltages are measured
but other physical quantities with
sensors, the carrier board
BP16
from BMC Messsysteme GmbH
supplied with the
MAL
miniature
measuring amplifiers is ideal for
the combination with the data
logger.
This is realized via a 1:1 connec-
tion of the 37-pole Sub-D sockets
at the front of the two devices.
Besides that, the
BP16
can be
operated with the external power
supply provided at the Sub-D
socket of the logger.
The control of the
meM-LOG-SE
takes place by programming via
the serial interface or by means of
the operating software ST-meM-
LOG SE included with delivery.
Since ST-meM-LOG SE supports
the same file format as the modern
software
... NextView
®
4 ...
for data acquisition and
processing, measuring files created
with ST-meM-LOG SE can be dis-
played in NextView
®
4 as graphic
signal curves and then be ana-
lyzed.
NextView
®
4 is also available as a
stripped-down "Analysis" version.
A free demo of the software is
included with delivery.
The instruction set for program-
ming the
meM-LOG-SE
is com-
patible to the ADAM4000 series.

1 Starting up the device and using the accumulator
Plug the two red frames onto the short sides of the device with the feet looking downwards as illustrated in the product
picture.
The power supply for the device (12V, 12W) is optionally available (
ZU-PW10W
) as accessory. In addition, an accu-
mulator is integrated so that (depending on the load) the
meM-LOG-SE
can be operated between 30 hours and 7
weeks without external power supply. As soon as the external power supply is connected (green LED on), the accumu-
lator is recharged. Charging is done within 3-4 hours approximately even during a scan. Before first use, charge the
accumulator for about 1 hour. To prevent any loss of data, do not deeply discharge the accumulator. In this case, it has
to be loaded with the device turned off. To keep the functioning of the accumulator, it should not stay unused for more
than one year.
For controlling
meM-LOG-SE
and transmitting measuring data, connect the device to the PC with a serial interface
cable (9-pole null modem cable) or USB cable (included with delivery) depending on the interface you want to use.
The logger is suitable for DIN rail mounting. The DIN rail set
ZU-SCHI
can be ordered optionally.
If using several measuring systems of the meM series or the amplifier system
BP16
, the red frames of the device can be
fit together, so that the devices form a stable unit (see chapter 5).
