Channels: 

Displays other parameters related to temperature measurement

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Unit

: Defines the unit of the value measured: ºC or ºF for channel 1 (temperature). 

 

Value

: It defines how the value measured will be registered. Options are: 

o

 

Instantaneous

: The value logged will be exactly the value measured at each interval defined. Measurement is taken at the 

end of the defined interval. The minimum interval between measurements is 5 seconds. 

o

 

Average

: The registered value will be the average of 10 measurements made on logging interval. The minimum time 

between each record is 50 seconds. 

o

 

Maximum

: The value logged will be the maximum value found within 10 consecutive measurements taken within a 

predefined interval. The minimum interval between measurements is 50 seconds. 

o

 

Minimum

: The value logged will be the minimum value found within 10 consecutive measurements taken within a 

predefined interval. The minimum interval between measurements is 50 seconds. 

 

Offset

: Makes possible to correct the value logged adding or subtracting a constant (known) error value 

 

Alarm

: Defines limit values that, when exceeded, characterize an alarm condition. Alarm events are informed to the user through a 

flashing mode of the Alarm Indicator.  

 

After filling all the fields, select OK and the settings will be sent to the device.

Stop / Pause / Resume Buttons 

These buttons will be enabled once the device is fully configured.  

 

The 

Stop

 button allows stop logs permanently, so that the device will only register again after a new configuration by the 

user 

 

The 

Pause 

button action sends the appropriate command, depending on the current logging status: If the logs are In 

progress, pressing this button, it will be send a command to 

Pause

 the logs 

 

When the Logging has been “paused” via pressing the 

Pause

 Button, the latter will mutate to a “

Resume

” Button.  

Pressing this button will send a command to the device to resume the that were interrupted by the Pause command 

without erasing the previous registers of the device memory, using the same parameter settings previously configured  

After this the button mutates again to reflect the “

Pause

” function

Downloading Data 

Downloaded data are send from device to PC. Data can be downloaded any time at the end of the acquisition process or while they are being 

acquired. If data downloaded takes place during the acquisition process, the process will not be interrupted, following the device configuration. 

 

Data download is accomplished by clicking the button Download Data 

 . During data transfer, a status bar indicates remaining data to be 

transferred. Data downloading time is proportional to the number of readings logged
