Weight Complete Kit: 9.5 oz (269 g)
Approvals CE
If using a stainless steal braided thermocouple please note that the water can wick into the waterbox through the
cable and cause damage to the data logger. MadgeTech recommends mounting the box above the thermocouple
so that the water wicks away from the waterbox and data logger, or use epoxy to seal the thermocouple around the
compression fitting.

Product Notes
Connecting to Exhaust Pipe
Additional Materials: 68 x 4 x 4 weatherhead and a 1/4 inch NPT Coupler
- Weld the Coupler into the exhaust pipe within 6 inches of the inlet of the muffler. Mount the
Waterbox to the truck and insert the thermocouple into the dapier and use the weatherhead to
secure it down.
LEDs
- Green LED blinks: 10 seconds to indicate logging and 15 seconds to indicate delay start mode
- Red LED blinks: 10 seconds to indicate low battery and/or memory and 1 second to indicate
an alarm condition
Thermocouple Type
To change the thermocouple type:
- In the Connected Devices panel, click the device desired.
- On the Device Tab, in the Information Group, click Properties. Users can also right-click the
device and select Properties in the context menu.
- On the General Tab, change the Thermocouple type in the drop down menu.
- Apply these changes, there will be a prompt to reset the device, select yes.
Password Protection
An optional password may be programmed into the device to restrict access to configuration
options. Data may be read out without the password.
Multiple Start/Stop Mode Activation
- To start device: Press and hold the pushbutton for 5 seconds, the green LED will flash during this
time. The device has started logging.
- To stop the device: Press and hold the pushbutton for 5 seconds, the red LED will flash during this
time. The device has stopped logging.
Alarm and Cumulative Alarm Delay
To change the alarm setting of a device:
- In the Connected devices panel, select the intended device to change the alarm settings.
- On the Device tab, in the Information group, click Properties.
- Users can also right-click on the device and select Properties in the context menu.
- Click the Alarm tab. If the Alarm tab is missing, the device does not have any alarm settings.
Configure the alarm settings:
- The High and Low settings indicate reading thresholds at which the alarm becomes active.
- The Warn high and Warn low settings indicate reading thresholds at which the alarm warning
becomes active.
- The Delay setting indicates how long to wait before the alarm becomes active after passing an
alarm threshold.
- The Use cumulative alarm delay checkbox indicates whether the alarm delay should reset when
reading values fall back within the alarm threshold. Note: Available settings vary per model.
- Click the Apply button.
Trigger Settings
The device can be programmed to only record based off user configured trigger settings.
- In the Connected Devices panel, click the device desired.
- On the Device Tab, in the Information Group, click Properties. Users can also right-click the device
and select Properties in the context menu.
- Select Trigger Settings from the Device Menu: Start Device or Identify Device and Read Status.
Note: Trigger formats are available in Window and Two Point (bi-level) mode. Window allows for one range of
temperature monitoring and two point mode allows for two ranges of temperature monitoring.
Installation Guide
Installing the Interface cable
- IFC200: Insert the device into a USB port. The drivers will install automatically.
Installing the software
Dowdload the MadgeTech 4 Software on our website at www.madgetech.com/software-download.
Device Operation
Connecting and Starting the data logger
- Once the software is installed and running, plug the interface cable into the data logger.
- Connect the USB end of the interface cable into an open USB port on the computer.
- The device will appear in the Connected Devices list, highlight the desired data logger.
- For most applications, select “Custom Start” from the menu bar and choose the desired start
method, reading rate and other parameters appropriate for the data logging application and
click “Start”. (“Quick Start” applies the most recent custom start options, “Batch Start” is used
for managing multiple loggers at once, “Real Time Start” stores the dataset as it records while
connected to the logger.)
- The status of the device will change to “Running”, “Waiting to Start” or “Waiting to Manual
Start”, depending upon your start method.
- Disconnect the data logger from the interface cable and place it in the environment to
measure. Note: The device will stop recording data when the end of memory is reached or the device is
stopped. At this point the device cannot be restarted until it has been re-armed by the computer.
Downloading data from a data logger
- Connect the logger to the interface cable.
- Highlight the data logger in the Connected Devices list. Click “Stop” on the menu bar.
- Once the data logger is stopped, with the logger highlighted, click “Download”. You will be
prompted to name your report.
- Downloading will offload and save all the recorded data to the PC.
Device Maintenance
Battery Replacement
Materials: 3/32” HEX Driver, Small Phillips Head Screwdriver, Replacement Battery (LTC-7PN)
- Remove the cover from the Waterbox by unscrewing the four screws.
- Remove the data logger from the Waterbox.
- Puncture the center of the back label with the screw driver and unscrew the enclosure.
- Remove the battery by pulling it perpendicular to the circuit board.
- Insert the new battery into the terminals and verify it is secure.
- Screw the enclosure back together securely. Note: Be sure not to over tighten the screws or strip the
threads.
Recalibration
The ETR101A standard calibration is two points at 25 °C and 60 °C for the internal sensor and 0 mV
for the Thermocouple channel.
