Plugging the UTREL30-16 into a USB port
UTREL30-16 User Guide
46
Drivers that are installed may include the following:
l
Mass Storage Device Driver
l
LogTag Mass Storage USB Device Driver
These two devices are required so you can access the data files in the same way as a
USB memory stick. These drivers will not be installed if the UTREL30-16 does not
generate files.
l
USB Input Device (HID) Driver
This device is used for communication to LogTag
®
Analyzer and its driver will always
be installed, even if LogTag
®
Analyzer is not present on the computer.
l
USB Composite Device Driver
This driver signals that multiple devices are involved when plugging in a
UTREL30-16.
If you have configured the UTREL30-16 to
generate files
, these will be created every time
you plug the logger into the USB port. While the file creation takes place, the display
shows
bUSy
instead of the current time.
Once the files are generated, a new drive or mounted device will appear. The device name
will be created from the serial number of the UTREL30-16.
If you have disabled file generation during configuration, no drive will appear.
USB communication can interfere with temperature measurement. While a
UTREL30-16 is plugged into a PC's USB port, occasionally a scheduled temperature
reading is not taken. The graph will display a gap and the data list will show
---
followed by the
#
symbol. This does not apply when the logger is connected to a
USB power supply.
macOS, OSX and Linux
Typically in these operating systems a new drive will be mounted, from which you can
open the PDF file. You will not be able to configure the UTREL30-16 using either of these
operating systems, unless you use virtualization software such as VMWare Fusion,
Parallels Desktop or Virtualbox to create a hosted Windows environment. You need to
discuss these options with your network administrator. Virtualbox is free, while VMWare
and Parallels are offered as paid subscriptions.
