The purpose of this manual is to explain how to use and set up
the Eagle 2 Data Logger Management Program. You will learn
how to:
• install and launch the program
• install the downloading cable (if needed)
• download data from the Eagle 2
• view, print, and save data
• change data logging parameters
• perform a calibration
• change the appearance of the program screens
• change the color of graphed readings for a particular gas
Before you get started, be sure to review the system
requirements in the next section.
Introduction • 1
CAUTION: The Eagle 2 detects oxygen deficiency and
elevated levels of oxygen, combustible gases,
carbon monoxide, and hydrogen sulfide, all of
which can be dangerous or life threatening. When
using the Eagle 2, you must follow the instructions
and warnings in the Eagle 2 Operator’s Manual to
assure proper and safe operation of the unit and to
minimize the risk of personal injury.
CAUTION: The operator of this instrument is advised that if t he
equipment is used in a manner not specified in this
manual, the protection provided by th e equipment
may be impaired.

IrDA Downloading Cable
The Eagle 2 communicates with a computer via an on-board
infrared communication port that co mp lies with IrDA prot ocol
standards.
NOTE: If your computer has a built-in infrared port, you do not
need an adapter cable to download data.
If your computer does not have an infrar ed port, you will need to
install an IrDA/USB adapter cable on your computer to use the
Eagle 2 Data Logger Management Program with yo ur
Eagle 2. The IrDA/USB cable is availabl e f rom RKI In struments,
Inc. See the Spare Parts List at the end of this manual for the
RKI part number. This cable can also be found on many
electronic supply websites.
®
Some versions of Windows
device drivers loaded in Windows
already have several infrared
®
and will automatically
recognize a cable during the installation process and guide you
in installing the drivers. Other versions of Windows
®
will require
you to load device drivers provided by the manufacturer of the
cable during the install ation pr ocess. RKI makes n o warranty for
the operation or compatibility of the drivers with any particular
device.
Installing an IrDA Adapter Cable
After installing the Eagle 2 Data Logger Management Program,
connect the IrDA/USB cable to your computer and follow the
manufacturer’s instructions for installing the cable on your
computer. Make sure the cable is compatible with your
Windows
If you do not have instructions from the cable manufacturer for
installing your cable, see your Windows documentation. In
general, you must go to the Control Panel and use the Add

Overwriting Data in the Eagle 2
The Eagle 2’s Data Log Overwrite function is factory set to On
so that when the Eagle 2’s dat a logging memory be comes full, it
begins to overwrite the oldest interval trend data with new
internal trend data. Download data regularly to avoid overwriting data in the Eagle 2 before it can be downloaded. The
Data Log Overwrite function is accessible using the Eagle 2
Setup Mode. To set the Data Log Overwrite function to Off, see
the Eagle 2 Operator’s Manual. When the Data Log Overwrite
function is set to off, the Eagle 2 will stop saving data when its
data logging memory is full.
The Data Log Overwrite function applies only to interval trend
data. All other dat a, such as alarm trend data, event data, or
calibration data, will continue to be saved when the memory is
full. If the maximum number of each of these types of data has
been reached, the oldest data will be overwritten.

The Data Window is divided into four frames. The upper left
frame is the Data Frame and displays all the data folders. They
are grouped under the Eagle 2 icon in the upper left part of the
frame. If the data folders are not visible, double click the
Eagle 2 icon to make them visible. If no data has been saved,
then no folders will appear when the Eagle 2 icon is double

Calibration History
The Eagle 2 is capable of saving calibration information for up to
the 100 most recent calibrations. This calibration history is
retrieved by the Data Logger Managemen t Program when data
is downloaded from the Eagle 2 using either the Complete
Download download command or the Download Logger Data
download command.
Instrument calibration information is also available in the Last
Calibration Window. The information regarding the most recent
successful calibration for each downloaded instrument along
with whether or not an instrument is due for calibration can be
accessed using the Last Calibration button on the right side of
