HiTemp140X2 Series
Product Overview
The HiTemp140X2 series of dual probe high temperature data loggers are comprised
of a stainless steel data logger body and feature either two remote temperature probes one
ambient and one remote temperature probe combination. This data logger series oers
extreme flexibility for high temperature monitoring applications.
The dual probes of the HiTemp140X2 series allow for simultaneous temperature monitoring
and are ideal for applications such as oven mapping, surface temperature monitoring,
autoclave validation, food processing, sterilization processes and much more.
The HiTemp140X2-TD data logger models feature a 2 inch rigid, fast response, transitional
diameter probe to measure ambient temperature, combined with a second stainless steel
bendable or flexible RTD probe option.
The HiTemp140X2-FP data logger models feature a 6 inch, 12 inch, 36 inch or 72 inch,
lightweight flexible RTD probe, combined with a second stainless steel bendable probe or a
second flexible RTD probe.
The HiTemp140X2 data logger series is compatible with the latest version of the MadgeTech
Software. This allows for simple starting, stopping and downloading of collected data. Once
the readings have been downloaded to the software, it can be viewed in graphic, tabular,
and summary form for easy analysis, as well as the potential to be exported into Excel for
further calculations.

Additional Features
Submergibility
The HiTemp140X2 series is rated IP68 and is fully submersible. They can be placed in
environments up to 230 ft (70 m) of water.
Bend Radius
- The bendable probe can be bent to a 1/4 inch bend radius. The probe should not be bent
within 1 inch of either weld joint.
- The flexible probe should not be bent within 1 inch where the probe meets the logger or
less than 1 inch from the probe tip.
O-Rings
O-ring maintenance is a key factor when properly caring for the HiTemp140X2 data loggers. The O-rings ensure a tight seal and prevent liquid from entering the inside of the
device. Please refer to the application note “O-Rings 101: Protecting Your Data”, found on
the MadgeTech website, for information on how to prevent O-ring failure.
Trigger Settings
The device can be programmed to only record based o user configured trigger settings.
1. In the Connected devices panel, select the intended device to change the settings.
2. 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.
3. Click Trigger and configure the Trigger settings. Trigger formats are available in Window
and Two Point (bi-level) mode. Window mode allows for one range of temperature
monitoring and two point mode allows for two ranges.
Note: This product is rated for use up to 140 °C. Please heed the battery warning. The product will explode if
exposed to temperatures above 140 °C.
Temperature Channels
All HiTemp140X2 data loggers feature 2 temperature channels.
The channel number for each probe is identified on the top
of the logger as shown below. The MadgeTech Software will
list the temperature channels in sequence, listing channel 1
first and channel 2 second, under the data logger device ID as
shown to the right.

Device Maintenance
Battery Replacement
When replacing the battery, it is important to insert the battery with
positive polarity pointing upward. Failure to do so could result
in product inoperability or potential explosion if exposed to high
temperatures.
Recalibration
The HiTemp140X2 standard calibration points are 30 °C and 140 °C.
Call for custom calibration options to accommodate specific application needs.
Prices and specifications subject to change. See MadgeTech’s terms and conditions. To send
devices to MadgeTech for calibration, service or repair, please use the MadgeTech RMA Process

Troubleshooting Tips
Why is the data logger not appearing in the software?
If a HiTemp140X2 data logger doesn’t appear in the Connected Devices panel, or an error message
is received while using any of the HiTemp140X2 loggers, try the following:
• Check that the IFC400 or IFC406 is properly connected. For more information, see Troubleshooting
Interface Cable problems (below).
• Ensure that the battery is not discharged. For best voltage accuracy, use a voltage meter connected to
the battery of the device. If possible, try switching the battery with a new 3.6V lithium battery.
• Ensure that no other MadgeTech software (such as MadgeTech 2, or MadgeNET) is running in the
background.
• Ensure that MadgeTech 4 is being used. MadgeTech 2 and MadgeNET are not the correct software for
connecting a HiTemp140X2.
• Ensure that the Connected Devices panel is large enough to display devices. This can be verified by
positioning the cursor on the edge of the Connected Devices panel until the resize cursor appears, then
dragging the edge of the panel to resize it. The screen layout may also be reset in the options menu by
selecting File, Options, and scrolling to the bottom.
Troubleshooting Interface Cable problems
Check that the software properly recognizes the connected IFC400 or IFC406.
If the data logger is not appearing in the Connected Devices list, it may be that the IFC400 or IFC406 is
not properly connected.
1. In the software, click the File button, then click Options.
2. In the Options window, click Communications.
3. The Detected Interfaces box will list all of the available communication interfaces. If the IFC400 or
IFC406 is listed here, then the software has correctly recognized and is ready to use it.
Check that Windows recognizes the connected IFC400 or IFC406.
If the software does not recognize the IFC400 or IFC406, there may be a problem with Windows or the
USB drivers.
1. In Windows, click Start, right-click Computer and choose Properties or press Windows+Break as a
keyboard shortcut.
2. Click Device Manager in the left hand column.
3. Double click Universal Serial Bus Controllers.
4. Look for an entry for Data logger Interface.
5. If the entry is present, and there are no warning messages or icons, then windows has correctly
recognized the connected IFC400 or IFC406.
6. If the entry is not present, or has an exclamation point icon next to it, the USB drivers may need to be
installed. These are available on the software flash drive included with the IFC400 or IFC406, and on the
MadgeTech website.
Ensure that the USB end of the IFC400 or IFC406 is securely connected to the computer.
1. Locate the USB-A plug of the IFC400 or IFC406.
2. If the interface cable is connected to the PC, unplug it. Wait ten seconds.
3. Reconnect the cable to the PC.
4. Check to make sure that the blue LED is lit on the IFC400 or the green LED is lit on the IFC406,
indicating a successful connection.
