Operation 

 

INSTALLING THE GRAPHING SOFTWARE 

 
Install the supplied Windows PC Datalogger Software by placing the supplied program disk in the PC’s CD-ROM 
drive.  If the installation program does not automatically open and provide on-screen prompts, open and browse 
the CD-ROM drive, then find and double-click on the SETUP.EXE file included on the program disk.  Follow the 
on-screen prompts to complete the installation. 
 
Before running the graphing software, please connect the TH10 to the PC and install the USB Driver software as 
described in the next section. 

 
 

INSTALLING THE USB DRIVER 

 
Plug the TH10 into an available USB port on the PC.  If this is the first

 

time that the TH10 has been connected to 

the particular port on the PC, the following screen will appear: 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
Make sure the program disk is still in the PC CD-ROM drive.  Select the ‘recommended’ installation and follow the 
on-screen prompts to complete the driver installation.  If this is a repeat connection of the TH10 to the USB port, 
the driver installation process will be automatically skipped. 

 
RUNNING THE GRAPHING SOFTWARE 

 

With the TH10 inserted into the PC’s USB port, double-click the Temperature Datalogger icon to launch the 
program.  The main software screen will appear with the MENU BAR icons described as below. 
 

Note:  When the TH10 is connected to the USB port, the battery inside the device is discharged at a 

higher rate than normal.  To conserve battery life, do not leave the TH10 connected to the 
USB port for a prolonged period of time
