Frequently Asked Questions - TLC 750 NFC Ebro

How do I start the data logger for the first time?

Insert the battery (CR2450) into the compartment, then use the free Ebro NFC App (Android/iOS) to configure the logging interval and start recording. The device will start logging automatically after configuration.

How do I retrieve logged data?

Hold your NFC-enabled smartphone close to the device (within 4 cm). Open the Ebro NFC App and tap 'Read Logger'. The data will be downloaded and can be exported as CSV or PDF for analysis.

What is the maximum storage capacity?

The TLC 750 NFC can store up to 32,000 readings for temperature and 32,000 for humidity. When full, the device stops logging unless overwrite mode is enabled.

Can I use the logger with a PC?

Yes, if your PC has an NFC reader or you can use a USB NFC dongle. Alternatively, use the Ebro WinLog software for data analysis and configuration.

How do I change the battery?

Open the battery compartment using a small screwdriver. Replace the old CR2450 battery with a new one, observing polarity. Close the compartment securely. The device retains its configuration even without battery for a short time.

Is the device waterproof?

No, the TLC 750 NFC has an IP20 rating, meaning it is only protected against solid objects greater than 12.5 mm. It is not waterproof or dustproof. Avoid exposure to moisture and dust.

How accurate is the temperature measurement?

The typical accuracy is ±0.5°C over the range -20°C to +60°C. For higher precision, a calibration certificate can be ordered separately.

Can I set different logging intervals for temperature and humidity?

No, both parameters share the same logging interval. You can set any interval from 1 second to 24 hours via the app.

What should I do if the logger does not respond to NFC?

Ensure your smartphone has NFC enabled and the Ebro NFC App is installed. Place the phone directly on the logger's surface (marked area). If still no response, replace the battery as it may be depleted.

How do I clean the device?

Wipe the exterior with a soft, dry cloth. Do not use any liquids, solvents, or abrasive cleaners. The device is not designed for cleaning with compressed air.

• By observing the operating instructions, you will also avoid damage to the device and the risk of your statutory rights of defects due to misuse. For damages resulting from failure to comply with this User manual, we assume no liability.
• Pay particular attention to the safety instructions!
• Keep this manual in a safe place!

2. Overview

The TLC 750 NFC and TLC 750 BT are both infrared and contact thermometers. You can choose between these two types of measurement at any time. While using them as an infrared thermometer, two integrated laser pointers help to aim at the desired measuring surface.

The model variant TLC 750 BT has a Bluetooth LE interface integrated for wireless data transmission. In addition, the device offers a USB interface for wired data transmission. The integrated battery can be charged via the USB interface on the backside of the housing or using wireless charging technology.

In addition to the functions of the TLC 750 BT device, the model variant TLC 750 NFC has an NFC reader integrated with which NFC tags can be read.

3. Safety instructions

The device is not suitable for children. Keep out of the reach of children!

Risk of injury!

There is a risk of injury when the probe needle is unfolded.

Risk of contamination! In case of injuries with the probe needle you could contract dangerous germs!

Burns!

After measuring high temperatures, the probe needle still is hot for some time.

Avoid over-tightening the penetration probe pivot. Overstressing the penetration probe may cause breakage.

Operate the device only within the specified parameters.

Warning of laser light!

Risk of injury to the eyes! Do not aim the laser directly or indirectly via reflective surfaces to the eyes.

If the device or its accessories are mechanically damaged, do not use them any more!

The device may never be thrown in fire or heated up to similar temperatures via other means! Danger of explosion of the battery!

The cover of the battery compartment must not be opened. Only the flap covering the USB port may be opened for the purpose of recharging the battery. In order to maintain protection class IP 65, close the flap afterwards again.

Please also see the instructions regarding charging (chapter 7), cleaning (chapter 8) and the allowed power supplies (chapter 10).

4. Precautions

Protect the thermometer from the following influences:

• Strong electromagnetic fields e.g. induction heaters
- Static electricity
- Do not use on or near hot or very cold objects.

5. Device operation

5.1 Switching on

The device can be switched on by pressing the measurement button or by unfolding the penetration probe. If penetration probe is folded, IRT measurement is active. Otherwise core temperature measurement is active.

When the device is switched on, the device waits for a Bluetooth connection and displays this with a flashing Bluetooth symbol. Once connected, the Bluetooth icon is permanently displayed.

5.2 Switching off

The device will switch off automatically after 1 minute if in infrared mode, or after 10 minutes if in penetration probe mode. The backlight switches off after 10 seconds of inactivity.

5.3 Penetration probe temperature measurements

The Penetration probe must be unfolded for this mode of operation. Position the probe needle where you want to measure the temperature. Wait until temperature has stabilized. By pressing the measurement button last measured temperature value is held until the measurement button is pressed again.

5.4 Infrared temperature measurements

The penetration sensor must be closed for this mode of operation. To take a reading with the infrared sensor, point the infrared lens at the point to be measured and press and hold the measurement button. Aim so that both laser points are on the object to be measured. The area whose temperature is measured is located between the two laser points. If the measurement button is released the last measured value is held.

5.5 Logging modes

5.5.1 AdHoc logging mode

This mode offers real time measurement data transmission via a Bluetooth LE connection. In addition measurement values can be stored at internal storage memory for readout at a later time. The device has to be programmed by host software for this mode.

7. Battery indicator and charge

The battery of the device can be charged via the USB port or wirelessly using the base station IF 50.

Attention! When using a power supply, make sure the power supply and the cable are working flawlessly! Only power supplies with Limited Power may be used. Loading may only be done under attendance. There must be no mechanical stress on the USB cable when it is attached. When recharging, both the device and the cable must be placed so that there is no mechanical stress. Make sure heat build-up can't occur, e.g. due to a covered device. In case you realize the device changing in appearance, stop the charging process immediately.

Before recharging via the USB port, make sure it is clean and dry.

In order to achieve a long life time of the battery and to prevent a deep discharge, the battery must be fully charged at least once every 180 days.
