Product User Guide
Product Overview
The Element CO2 is a wireless carbon dioxide, humidity and temperature data logger, featuring a
convenient LCD screen to display current readings, minimum, maximum and average statistics,
battery level and more. User programmable alarms can be configured to activate an audible
buzzer and LED alarm indicator, notifying the user when the temperature, humidity and CO2
levels are above or below the user set threshold. Email and text alarms can also be configured
allowing users to be notified from almost anywhere.
Selection Buttons
The Element CO2 is designed with three direct selection buttons:
» Scroll: Allows user to scroll through current readings, average stats and device status
information displayed on the LCD Screen.
» Units: Allows users to change displayed units of measurement to either Fahrenheit, Celsius.
%RH or ppm
» Wireless: Push and hold this button for 5 seconds to activate or deactivate wireless
communication.
Users have the ability to manually reset the statistics within the device to zero without needing
to use the MadgeTech 4 Soware. Any data recorded up to that point is recorded and saved. To
apply the manual reset, press and hold the scroll key down for three seconds.
LED Indicators
» Status: Green LED blinks every 5 seconds to indicate the device is logging.
» Wireless: Blue LED blinks every 15 seconds to indicate the device is operating in wireless mode.
» Alarm: Red LED blinks every 1 second to indicate an alarm condition is set.
