Rugged Temperature Logger

The Rugged Temperature Logger is a sealed (IP68) Data Logger used for
measuring temperature in the range of -40°C to +125°C (-40°F to +257°F).
The Logger can operate unattended for months or years. It is self contained in
a small 316L stainless steel tubular enclosure with removable ends. One end
is the battery compartment and the other is to access the internal controls.
The logger can be set to record instantly, at preset times, or on alarm
conditions via the USB port using Track-It

TM

PC Software. Up to 32,000

readings can be saved in non-volatile memory at intervals from 2 seconds to
24 hours. The internal controls include the USB port for direct connection to a
laptop or PC, a button control, and an LED. To access the internal controls it is
necessary to unscrew the end with the ring counter clockwise. Recording
parameters can be set in the Track-It

TM

PC

Software.

Push Button/LED functionality: The push
button can be used to check status or to
change the state of the data logger. For
instance, it can be used to start and stop
recording if desired. This feature can also be
disabled to ensure the data logger state

remains unchanged until connected to a PC.


TO CHECK STATUS
Short press and release: LED will flash in various patterns to indicate data logger status:

The flash sequence is: Battery status > Record status > Alarm status

One long red flash at the beginning of the flash sequence indicates low battery. (no red flash =
battery ok)
One long red flash at the end of the flash sequence indicates an alarm. (no red flash = no alarm)
Slow red/green blink: Connect to PC. Unit is NOT set up or memory is full.

TO CHANGE STATE
Press and Hold, release when LED turns steady green: Changes record state on/off
Press and Hold, release when LED turns steady red: Reset alarm indication
Press and Hold, release after LED goes off: No change

The table below summarizes the push-button / LED functionality.
