6 Operation
6.1 Switch Cap Logger Pack Operation
If the fastCTD is supplied with a standard logger pack and connector, it will be also supplied with a
SubConn Switch Cap. This is a dummy connector plug has pins 1 & 10 linked. Inserting the
switch cap into the instrument connector activates the instrument and it will begin logging data in
the last configured mode. It will continue running until the plug is removed, or the battery is
exhausted.
6.2 Bluetooth Logger Pack Operation
The Bluetooth miniLogger pack has been designed as a direct replacement for the standard
SubConn miniLogger pack. The Bluetooth miniLogger is rated to 2000m and is secured using the
same lock ring as used by the standard logger pack.
On first installation, it will require 2 minutes to initialise, during this period the magnetic switch-key
should be removed.
After initialisation the switch-key can be used to turn the instrument on and off in the same manner
as the SubConn switch-cap is used on the standard logger pack. Every time the switch is removed,
the instrument will start a new file.
To ensure the reliability of the Bluetooth communications, the logger pack is supplied with a
dedicated Bluetooth receiver. The logger and receiver are paired in the factory and will
automatically connect whenever active and in range. The receiver is supplied with a stubby aerial,
but can also be supplied with a weatherproof magnetic mount antenna for outside mounting
