1. General description
The logger EASY
relative humidity, temperature and air pressure can be displayed, but also wet-bulb temperature, dew-point temperature, enthalpy and the moisture content of the air.
The combination of low power consumption with high battery capacity ensure a long recording time.
The last 250.000 measuring values of each variable (that means 1.000.000 values all in all)
are stores in the memory.
The LCD-display informs about 2 different variables at the same time (i.e. temperature and
humidity) or about the operating status of the logger.

3. Safety advice
This device has been designed, assembled and tested in accordance with the safety regulations for electronic measuring device. However, its trouble-free operation and reliability
cannot be guaranteed unless the standard safety measures and special safety advices
regarding the device will be adhered to when using the device.
1. Trouble-free operation and reliability of the device can only be guaranteed if the
device is not subjected to any other climatic conditions than those stated under
”Specification”.
To protect the battery, the maximum permissible storage and transport
temperature of the device is 70 °C
2. Standard regulations for operation and safety for electrical, light and heavy current
equipment have to be observed, with particular attention having to be paid to
national safety regulations.
3. When connecting the logger to other devices (e.g. PC) the interconnection has to
be designed most thoroughly as internal connections in third-party devices (e.g.
connection GND with protective earth) may lead to undesired voltage potentials.
4. If there is any risk whatsoever involved in running it, the device has to be switched
off immediately and to be marked accordingly to avoid re-starting.
Operator safety may be at risk if:
• there is visible damage done to the device
• the device is not working as specified
• the device has been stored under unsuitable conditions for a longer time.
In case of doubt, please return device to manufacturer for repair and maintenance.
5. Warning:
Do not use these product as safety or emergency stop devices, or in any other
application where failure of the product could result in personal injury or material
damage.
Failure to comply with these instructions could result in death or serious
injury and material damage.
4. Notes on the logger’s delivery status
The delivered logger is in a “sleep mode”, that means nothing is displayed and the
power consumption is at its minimum. When there is a communication with the software
for the first time, the EASY
device is ready for operation.
Note: That sleep mode (nothing is displayed) cannot be restored again.
“Stop“ or “Halt“ are similar to the sleep mode. Both of that operation
modes ensure minimum consumption.
Note: Logger start over keypad:
before logger start over keypad, logger time must be adjust with
GSOFT 40K.
LOG
leaves the sleep mode and ›Stop‹ is displayed. Then the

7.3 Operating possibilities via software GSOFT 40K
You can easily operate the logger via the software GSOFT 40K (> V7.14). This software
provides a variety of functions to operate the logger. For example:
• start and stop the logger
• read out the logger data; illustrate them graphically and save them
• adjust the alarm boundaries and alarm delay *1
• activate the sea-level correction and enter the actual sea level *1
Description: The measured barometric air pressure can be converted to the air
pressure at sea level if the actual height above sea level is entered.
• activate the function: “logger stop via buttons disabled“
*1 Please note: The alarm settings and the sea-level correction can be only
changed if the logger is stopped (= logger without logger data).
7.4 Operating possibilities via software EBxKonfig or EASYBusconfigurator
The software EBxKonfig (> V2.0) or EASYBus-configurator (> V3.9) is needed to
change the configuration settings.
With that software the following adjustment are additionally possible.
• Selection of the unit of the calculated variables*2
• Offset and slope adjustment for each measured variable *2
• Activation of the function: “do not stop active logger”
*2 Please note: This can be only changed if the logger is stopped (=logger without
logger data)
8. Battery life time and recording period
Measuring cycle: 4 sec 3 min 15 min 5 h
Recording period: 11.5 days 521 days 7.1 years 142 years
Battery life time: -- -- ca. 5 years --
Please note: Short measuring cycles seriously reduce the battery life time!
In this case you should consider not unplugging the EASYBus-
interface.
Then the logger is supplied via the interface.
The internal battery is spared.

The particular measuring channels are displayed for about 4 sec.
and then are automatically switched to the next ones.
• The arrow “Logg“ signals that the logger is recording.
• The arrow “AL“ signals an alarm state at minimum one channel.
• The arrow “SL“ signals an active sea-level correction .
