Chapter 8 Initial Start-Up
8.1 User information
Before you connect the myDatalog4 and place it into operation, you must observe and comply with
the following user information!
This manual contains all information that is required for using the device.
Is intended for technically qualified personnel who have the relevant knowledge and experience in
the area of measurement technology.
Read this manual carefully and completely in order to ensure the proper functioning of the myDa-
talog4 .
Please contact our technical department if anything is unclear or if you encounter difficulties with
regard to installation, connection or configuration (see "Contact information" on page 145).
If necessary, please also refer to the manuals of the accessory parts when commissioning the com-
plete system. These manuals are included in the scope of delivery of the accessory parts.
8.2 General principles
The entire measurement system may only be placed into operation after completion and inspection
of the installation. Study the manual thoroughly before placing into operation to prevent faulty or
incorrect configuration.
Utilise the manual to familiarise yourself with the operation of the myDatalog4 and the input
screens of the myDatanet-Server before you begin with the configuration.
8.3 Placing the system into operation
Note: It is recommended that the myDatalog4 is first placed into operation in the office before moving the device to
the place of use. During this process, you should set a site for the later operation on the myDatanet server (see
"myDatanet Server Manual " 805002) and determine a site configuration (see "Site configuration" on page 59).
Take the opportunity to get to know the functions of the device in a stable environment. You can also use suitable
test signals to simulate the sensors to establish the optimum configuration of the myDatalog4 prior to its actual
first use. This reduces the amount of time required for on-site installation to a minimum.
1. The myDatalog4 is supplied with the transport lock activated (measurement and transmission
"OFF") and should also always be stored in this state (see "Storage of the product" on page
19). The transport lock is deactivated by initiating the ALOHA transmission mode (see "ALOHA
transmission mode" on page 28), whereby the first connection to the myDatanet server is
established.
