Data management software can be downloaded from the software platform by clicking the
help button.
Install the software first. Insert the data logger into the computer’s USB port and install the
drive software according to the prompt information. Open the software; the data logger will
automatically upload information after connecting to the computer. View information and
exit the interface.
Note that the software installation has added an icon to your desktop.

Start the data logger
There are three modes to start the logger – instant-on, manual start, and timing start.
1.Instant-on: After parameter configuration, the data logger starts recording
immediately when it is disconnected from the USB.
2.Manual start: After parameter configuration, press and hold the button for 5
seconds to start the data logger. In this mode, it has a start delay function. If this
function is enabled, the data logger will not record data immediately after start-up
but start recording after the set delay time elapses.
3.Timing start: After parameter configuration and disconnection from USB, the data
logger starts recording when it reaches the set time.
View data instantly
If you need to view simple statistical information, you may directly press the button to turn
the page and check. The LCD screen can display MKT, average value, Max value and Min
value. Mean Kinetic Temperature (MKT) is a simplified way of expressing the overall effect
of temperature fluctuations during storage or shipment of perishable goods.
If you need detailed information, please connect the data logger to the computer’s USB.
After about 3 minutes, the data will be saved. You can open it as an Excel, AI or PDF
report.
Moreover, you can connect the data logger to a computer and analyze the data using the
data management software.
Stop the data logger
There are several modes to stop it – manual stop, stop via software, over-Maxrecord-capacity stop (enable/disable manual stop).
1. Manual stop: When the data logger is recording in this mode, you may press and hold
the button for 5 seconds to stop it.
2. Stop via software: You can stop the data logger via software
selecting the Stop recording option on the software platform.
If the record capacity reaches the Max value (32,000 points)
by
R3-081016 3
and the data logger is not stopped manually, the data logger will save the data by
overwriting the initial data. (It keeps the statistical information of the whole
transportation process.)
NOTE: When the record capacity exceeds the Max capacity (32,000 points) in the
manual mode, the data logger can continue recording the temperature state of the
whole transportation process but only keep the details of the last 32,000 points.
Please use the ―manual stop‖ mode with caution if you have a need to trace back
the details of the whole process.
3. Over-Max-record-capacity stop (enable manual stop): In this mode, you can stop the
data logger by hand or via software, or it will stop automatically when the record data
reaches the Max capacity (32,000 points).
Over-Max-record-capacity stop (disable manual stop): In this mode, it will stop
automatically when the record data reaches the Max capacity (32,000 points), or
you can stop it via software.
View data
Connect the data logger to the computer via USB and then view the data.
View report via the data management software: Open the software and import the data as
Excel, Adobe Illustrator Artwork (AI) or PDF report. The software will display the
configuration information and recorded data.
Display menu instructions
Different screens are displayed when the unit is running. Below are various modes of
operation of the data logger.
Menu 1: Start delay time or the remaining time of timing start (Hr: Min. Sec). See Figures
1 and 2. (This page is displayed only in start delay or timing start status.)
Fig.1: Start delay time Fig.2: Timing start delay (flashing)
Menu 2: Current temperature. See Fig. 3, 4 (Static indicates it is recording.)
Fig.3 Current temperature (No alarm occurred) Fig.4 Current temperature (Alarmed)
Menu 3: Current record points. See Fig.5 (Static indicates the current record points
exceed the Max capacity and the data logger is overwriting initial data.)
