ABOUT THE EM50 LOGGER SERIES
•
Growing Tools combine data streams and track meaningful in-
dicators. For example, plot vapor pressure deficit instead of
just temperature and humidity. Or track growing degree days,
plant available water, pore water EC, etc.
•
Use the virtual sensor tool to add desired information. For
example, you can measure precipitation on just one logger and
make that data stream a virtual sensor on every logger at that
site.
•
Automatically collect data from your Em50G and Em50R log-
gers. All data–including manually collected data—is automat-
ically organized and added to your files chronologically.
•
Add notes and ideas to the data stream. Comments and re-
minders can help you make sense of a growing season worth of
data later.
•
Educate and inform your team efficiently.
The DataTrac 3
graphics reduce the time and expertise needed to understand
soil moisture data.
Em50G Webviewer:
The Em50G WebViewer is a free web based
application that allows you to remotely download spreadsheets and
view weekly graphs of your data without a DataTrac 3 license. See
Section 4 for more information on the Em50G WebViewer.
Note: You cannot configure your Em50 loggers with the WebViewer,
please see Section 4 for logger configuration information.
Em50 Series Data Logging Scheme
The Em50 does not make sensor measurements until you set a “mea-
surement interval.” You also need to configure the Em50 ports with
the type of sensor plugged into each port. You can set these values
using either ECH2O Utility or DataTrac 3.
Em50 Measurement Interval
The measurement interval controls how often the Em50 records data
