Levelogger Series User Guide

Page 5

1 Introduction

This User Guide focuses on the current Levelogger 4.5 Software and Levelogger 5 Series of dataloggers,

which includes:

•  Levelogger 5
•  Barologger 5
•  Levelogger 5 Junior
•  Levelogger 5 LTC
•  Rainlogger 5

Levelogger Software 4.5 is also compatible with the Levelogger Edge and Gold Series of dataloggers.

Note:

For full specifications on Gold Series dataloggers, see the Appendix.

In addition, Levelogger Software 4.5 is compatible with LevelVent 5 and AquaVent 5 vented dataloggers, which

have a separate User Guide.

Note:

For further information about Solinst product compatibility, please refer to the Levelogger Series:

Hardware Compatibility chart at

www.solinst.com/downloads/

Levelogger Software is Windows

based and provides many convenient features. You can view and program

datalogger settings, begin logging sessions, monitor real-time readings, download data, manage data files,

perform data compensations, and save and export data files.

Solinst dataloggers can also be used with the Solinst Levelogger App, which shares most of the features of

Solinst Levelogger 4.5 Software, on your smart device. To use the Solinst Levelogger 5 App Interface, see

the separate User Guide. Also, see separate instructions for use with the DataGrabber 5 simple USB data

transfer device.

Note: Let Solinst keep you up-to-date with each new software and firmware release. Register your software
at: www.solinst.com/Registration/ to receive these updates.

A significant physical difference between Levelogger 5 Series of dataloggers compared to all

previous versions (including the Edge and Gold Series), is one large optical eye (lens) versus two

smaller optical eyes and a connection pin at the communication interface.

Section 2 discusses the different hardware options to communicate with each type of datalogger.

Section 10.1.1.2 discusses Direct Read Cable installation options.
