Setting The RTC

A real time clock (RTC) integrated into the X16-1D determines the time for each line of data recorded.
The RTC is initialized using a user-created text file named “time.txt” located in the root directory of the
microSD card. This is a separate file from the config.txt file and it is needed only when initializing the
RTC. The system looks for the time.txt file upon booting. If the file exists, the time stored in the file is
loaded to the RTC and the time.txt file is deleted. The time information in the time.txt file must be in

X16-1D, Rev B

A 5v supply via the USB connector provides extended operation of the device independent
of the internal battery. Common USB power adapters or USB battery packs for consumer
electronics can provide the required 5v supply. The logger does not implement power
saving features when connected to an external power supply so power consumption will
be higher than when using the AA battery.

The logger is always “on” maintaining the real time clock and will eventually discharge the
battery completely after several months. The discharged battery may leak chemicals and
corrode the electronics. Remove the AA battery prior to long term storage of the X16-1D.

Figure 11: Expected Battery Life

The X16-1D is not compatible with NiMH type rechargeable batteries. The NiMH battery
delivers 1.2 volts nominally, which is near the voltage cut-off limit of the logger. The X16-
1D will not operate very long or may activate at all.
