•
If your device can connect to the logger intermittently or
loses its connection, move closer to the logger, within
sight if possible.
•
If the logger appears in the app, but you cannot connect
to it, close the app and power cycle the mobile device.
This forces the previous Bluetooth connection to close.
Once the logger is connected, you can:
Tap this:
To do this:
Select logger settings and save them onto the
logger to start logging. See
Configuring the
Logger
.
Read out (offload) logger data. See
Reading Out
the Logger
.
Start or restart logging depending on the
configuration settings selected in
Configuring the
Logger
.
Stop the logger from recording data (this
overrides any Stop Logging settings described in
Configuring the Logger
).
Make the logger beep one time to help you
locate it. “HELLO” also appears on the LCD when
the logger is paged.
Stop a beeping alarm on the logger if audible
alarms are enabled as described in
Setting up
Alarms
.
Set a password for the logger that will be
required if another mobile device attempts to
connect to it. To reset a password,
simultaneously press both the Start/Stop button
and the Alarm/Stats button on the top of the
logger for 3 seconds or tap
and tap Reset.
Mark the logger as a favorite. You can then filter
the list of devices to only show loggers marked as
favorites.
Update the firmware on the logger. A logger
readout will be completed automatically at the
beginning of the firmware update process
Important:
Before updating the firmware on
the logger, check the remaining battery level
and make sure it is no less than 30%. Make
sure you have the time to complete the
entire update process, which requires that
the logger remains connected to the device
during the upgrade.
Configuring the Logger
Use the app to set up the logger, including setting alarms,
selecting the options to start and stop logging, and choosing a
logging mode. These steps provide an overview of setting up
the logger. For complete details, see the app user’s guide.
1.
In the app, tap Devices and then tap the logger to connect
to it.
2.
Tap
to configure the logger.
3.
Tap Name and type a name for the logger (optional). If no
name is selected, the logger serial number is used as the
name.
4.
Tap Group to add the logger to a group (optional). Tap Save.
5.
Tap Logging Interval and choose how frequently the logger
will record data unless operating in burst logging mode (see
Burst Logging
).
6.
Tap Start Logging and select when logging will begin:
•
Now.
Logging will begin immediately after the
configuration settings are loaded on the logger.
•
On Next Logging Interval.
Logging will begin at the next
even interval as determined by the selected logging
interval.
•
On Button Push.
Logging will begin once you press the
Start/Stop logging button on the logger for 3 seconds or
start logging with the app.
•
On Date/Time.
Logging will begin at a date and time you
specify. Select the Date and Time.
Tap Save.
7.
Tap Stop Logging and select the options for when logging
will end.
a.
Choose one of two memory options:
•
When Memory Fills.
The logger will continue recording
data until the memory is full.
•
Never (Wrap When Full).
The logger will continue
recording data indefinitely, with newest data
overwriting the oldest. This option is not available if
the Logging Mode is set to Burst (see
Burst Logging
).
b.
Select On Button Push if you want to be able to stop
logging by pushing the Start/Stop button on the logger
for 3 seconds.
If you select On Button Push for the Stop Logging option,
then you also have the option to select Allow Button
Restart. This allows you to stop and then resume logging
during the deployment by pushing the Start/Stop button
on the logger for 3 seconds.
Important:
When Allow Button Restart is selected and
you use the Start/Stop button to stop and restart logging,
logging will restart on the next even logging interval, not
at the time the button was pushed. For example, a logger
started logging at 7:00 AM with a logging interval set to 1
hour. If you press the Start/Stop button to stop the logger
at 8:45 AM and then press the button again at 10:15 AM,
logging will not begin immediately at 10:15 AM. Instead,
logging will begin again at 11:00 AM, which is the next
even interval time based on your 1-hour logging interval.
Therefore, depending on the logging interval, the gap
between the time you press the button to resume logging
and the time actual logging begins could be significant.
The faster the logging interval, the less time will elapse
before logging resumes.
c.
Select one of the following time options for when to stop
logging:
•
Never.
Select this if you do not want the logger to stop
at any predetermined time frame.
