4. Equipment and usage

The measuring device is used for recording, alarming, and visualizing temperature and, with external sensors, also for relative humidity and pressure. Areas of application include the monitoring of storage and transport conditions or other temperature, moisture and/or pressure-sensitive processes. The logger has a built-in USB port and can be connected without cables to all Windows PCs, Apple computers or tablets (USB adapter might be required). The USB port is protected by a plastic cap. Beside the actual measurement result, the display shows MIN- MAX- and AVG-measurements of each measurement channel. The bottom status line shows battery capacity, logger mode and alarm status. The green LED ashes every 30 seconds during recording. The red LED is used to display limit alarms or status messages (battery change ...etc.). The logger also has an internal buzzer that supports the user interface. This product is exclusively intended for the eld of application described above. It should only be used as described within these instructions.Unauthorized repairs, modications or changes to the product are prohibited and void any warranty!

5.2.2.1 Conguration Software Log Connect

By this software the user can change conguration parameter like measuring interval, start delay(or other start parameter), creating alarm levels or chan- ging the internal clock time The Software Log Connect contains an online help. Download free LogConnect software: www.dostmann-electronic.de/home.html ->Downloads ->Software/<your logger>/Software/LogConnect_XXX.zip (XXX choose latest version) Loggers with external inputs only record the sensors that are already attached at start of logging. Press button for 2 seconds, beeper sounds for 1 second, the actual date and time will be displayed for 2 further seconds. LED blinks green every 30 sec. LED lights green for 2 sconds - logging has started!

5.3 Erster Start & Aufzeichnung starten

Display in Auto-Mode (Display shows all measurement channel in a 3 seconds sequence) By using the Software LogConnect, the presets can easily be changed. See below

5.2.2.1 Conguration Software Log Connect

5.3.1 Restart recording

See 5.3. First start / start recording. The logger is started by default by button and stopped by USB port plug-in. The measured values are plotted automatically to the PDF le. NOTE: When you restart the existing PDF le is overwritten. Important! Always save the generated PDF les to your PC. If LogConnect is open when connecting the loggers and AutoSave is selected in Settings (Default), the log results are copied to a backup location immediately by default.21

By briey pressing the start button (after logger start), MEM, occupied memory in percent, MEM, day/month, Year and time each for 2 seconds displayed.

5.4 Stop recording / create PDF

Connect logger to an USB port. Beeper sounds for 1 second. LED blinks green until result PDF is created (can take up to 40 seconds). The symbol ► disappears in the status line. Now the logger is stopped. The Logger is shown as removable drive LOG40. View PDF and save. PDF will be overwritten with next log start! Note: With the next recording the Extrema (Max- and Min-value), and the AVG-value will be reset.

5.7 Display Modes and Mode - Button: EXT, AVG, MIN, MAX

1. AUTO mode The display alternately shows every 3 seconds: Minimum (MIN) /

Maximum (MAX) / Average (AVG) / current temperature. The displayed meas channel can be identied by the physical unit (°C/°F = temperature, Td + °C/°F = dewpoint, %rH = humidity, hPa = air pressure) along with the extension symbols <no symbol> = current measurement value, MIN= Minimum, MAX= Maximum, AVG=average. AUTO mode gives a quick overview on the current measurement values of all channels. Pressing the MODE key (left key) leaves AUTO mode and enters MANUAL mode:

mode MODE key ips through all available measurement values, following the sequence current value (no symbol), minimum (MIN), maximum (MAX), average (AVG) and AUTO (AUTO-Mode).23

MANUAL mode is handy to view any meas channel along with the main meas channel. Eg. air pressure maximum vs. main channel air pressure. Hit MODE key until display shows AutO to resume AUTO mode. EXT designates an external sensor. MANUAL mode is handy to view any meas channel.

To mark special events during the record, markers can be set. Hit MODE key for

2.5 seconds until a short beep sounds (see mark on PDF Fig. C). The marker is stored

along with the next measurement (respect record interval!) .

5.7.1.2 Reset MAX-MIN bu󰀨er

The logger has a MIN/MAX function to record extreme values for any period. Hit the MODE key for 5 seconds, until a short melody sounds. This restarts the measurement period. One possible use is the nding of day and night exterme temperatures. The MIN/MAX function runs independent of data recording. Please note: - At start of record, the MIN/MAX/AVG buffer is also reset to show MIN/MAX/AVG values that t the recording - During recording, resetting the MIN/MAX/AVG buffer will force a marker.

5.8 Batteriewechsel / Batterie-Status-Anzeige

• The empty battery symbol indicates that the battery needs to be replaced. Device will only work correctly for 10 more hours.

• The battery symbol indicates according to the battery status beween 0 and 3 segments.
