Configuration Setting Definitions 
 

UserID

 

The User ID is a description you choose to help you identify the unit. E.g. name of 
a refrigerator or practice name (useful when you have multiple vaccine fridges) 

Start 
Options

 

Push Button Start

 – Each LogTag has a Start button. Selecting Push Button 

Start means the Logger will not begin logging until that button is pushed. This is 
the option to use for vaccine fridges.

 

Record 
Options

 

Record Readings Continuously

 – Most often you will want to choose the first 

option. This will record until the memory is full and then keep recording new 
reading while deleting old readings to fit them in. This way, no matter when you 
download the data, you will always record the latest temperatures. You should be 
downloading and clearing your data logger weekly though, so it should never get 
‘full’. We recommend that you leave the 

Number of Readings to Record

 setting 

at its maximum.

 

Sample rate

 

“Record a reading every” is the sample rate. This is how often the Logtag will 
measure and store the temperature. 

Set this to ‘5 min intervals’

 as per the NSW 

requirements for monitoring vaccine fridges

 

Start delay

 

You will not need a delay start as you should have it set to start when the start 
button is pushed.

 

Green 
indicator

 

Enable the OK (Green)

 indicator should be ticked. This is the OK LED on the 

Logtag that flashes green letting you know that it is functioning.

 

Alert 
indicator

 

Enable the Alert (Red)

 indicator should also be ticked. This is the Alert LED that 

flashes when temperatures have gone out of range. Set to alert when readings 
below 2 or above 8
