UTRED-16 Start Options
During configuration with LogTag
®
Analyzer you can decide when the UTRED-16 starts
taking temperature readings:
Push button start
The logger will start taking temperature readings as soon as you have pressed the
START
/Mark
button (see
Starting the Logger on page 20
).
When you choose the push button start option, you can
Enable pre-start logging
(or
disable it) and also
Begin recording after a delay
.
Pre-start readings
If you enable pre-start readings, the UTRED-16 starts recording as soon as it is unplugged
from the USB port
6
and will continue to do so until you start the unit. No alarms are
processed while pre-start readings are being taken, pre-start readings will not appear in
the PDF file after the logger was started, and no PDF file will be generated if only pre-start
readings are present in the logger. Using pre-start readings is a good way to avoid data
loss if you forget to start the unit, as you can still access the data using LogTag
®
Analyzer.
Start delay
If you configure the UTRED-16 to start after a delay period, the logger will not
immediately record temperature readings after you have pressed
START
/Mark
, but start a
countdown timer instead, and record readings only after the timer has ended. The value for
the timer is set during configuration. If pre-start readings are enabled, these will continue
to be recorded during the delay period.
Date/Time start
The logger will start taking temperature readings at the date and time you specified during
configuration (local time). You cannot combine a date/time start with pre-start readings or
the start delay function.
6
The first pre-start reading is taken one log interval after you unplug the unit from the USB port.
