Basic Datalogger Operation
This section covers only the starting and stopping of the Datalogger’s recording functions. All other information is
provided in the HELP utility within the software program.
1. Configure the Datalogger’s sample rate, motion detection threshold, record mode, LED flash cycle and more
using the supplied software program. Refer to the instructions included in the software program’s HELP utility
to configure the datalogger and to otherwise use the software.
2. If AUTO start is selected in the software, the datalogger will begin logging data the moment the software
window is closed. If MANUAL is selected, press and hold the datalogger start/stop button until the green LED
flashes; the datalogger LED flashes periodically (flash interval time selectable in software) indicating that the
datalogger is recording.
3. To stop datalogging, press and hold the start/stop button while the unit is datalogging. The red LED will
quickly flash indicating that datalogging has stopped. Refer to the LED status table earlier in this manual for
interpreting the LED flash information.
4. Refer to the software HELP utility for transferring the data from the logger to the PC.
