Introduction
Congratulations on your purchase of the Relative Humidity / Temperature / Pressure Datalogger. This datalogger
can measure and store up to 10,000 readings. The user can easily configure the logging rate, high/low alarm and
start-mode, and download the stored data by plugging the module into a PC's USB port and running the supplied
PC software. Data can then be graphed, printed and exported to other applications. The data logger is supplied
with a long-life lithium battery, which can typically allow logging for one year. This meter is shipped fully tested and
calibrated and, with proper use, will provide years of reliable service.

Battery Replacement
It is highly recommended that the battery be replaced every 12 months, or prior to logging critical data.
The RHT50 does not lose its stored readings when the battery weakens or when the battery is replaced; the data
logging process will however be stopped and cannot be re-started until the battery has been replaced and the
logged data has been downloaded to PC.
Use only 3.6V lithium batteries. Before replacing the battery, remove the datalogger from the PC. Follow
diagrammatic steps below.
NOTE: Leaving the RHT50 plugged into the PC USB port longer than necessary will cause some of the battery
capacity to be lost.
1. Unscrew the protective sensor cap counter-clockwise.
2. Remove the protective cap and safely set it aside.
3. While inserting a small flat blade screwdriver into the slot and applying moderate pressure to the
locking tab, pull the front (USB side) of the RHT50 outward.
4. Completely disassemble the meter to access the battery compartment.
5. Insert battery.
6. Re-assemble the meter.
7. Replace the cap.
8. Hand-tighten the cap in a clockwise motion. Do not over tighten.
