Recording display
During recording, the display shows the temperature of the last reading taken, the current time, battery
status, a combination of alarm status and history. A reading is taken and the display updated every
logging interval, as configured in LogTag Analyzer.
Following are some examples:
In this example the display shows that alarm events occurred 7, 19, 20 and 25 days
ago. These alarms were cleared by an inspector as the display currently shows no
“ALARM” symbol. The current temperature is over the upper limit (indicated by the
arrow pointing up) but has not been over for long enough to trigger an alarm.
20 minutes later the over temperature has triggered an alarm. The ‘ALARM’ symbol and
the ‘TODAY’ marker day alarm are shown.
The next day, the temperature has returned to the acceptable range but the alarm
remains present. The day summary has shifted by 1 day as the time has gone through
midnight.
Clearing an alarm
When an alarm event has occurred, the ‘X’ symbol is displayed. To clear the ‘X’ symbol from the display,
press and hold the ‘START/STOP/CLEAR’ button until the ‘X’ symbol stops flashing, then immediately
release. Alarm events continue to be displayed in the history area of the display and can be reviewed with
the day statistics.
The option to clear and latch alarms can be disabled, see advanced options in LogTag Analyzer.
Stopping the Logger
If enabled, you can stop the Logger; press and hold the ‘START/CLEAR/STOP’ button. Continue to hold
while ‘STOPPED’ flashes on the display; release the button when the flashing stops. The Logger will no
longer take any readings, however you can still review the day statistics and download the logged results
to a PC with LogTag Analyzer.
The option to stop the Logger can be disabled during configuration, see advanced options in LogTag
Analyzer.
Re-activating the Logger
If enabled, the Logger can be re-activated for re-use by either re-configuring using LogTag Analyzer or
by using the following procedure; press the ‘START/CLEAR/STOP’ button. The ‘READY’ text will start
flashing on the display. Release the button when the flashing stops.
The Logger will then be ready for a push button start. Date/time start is only possible by re-configuring
with LogTag Analyzer. Be aware that re-activating the Logger will erase all previously recorded readings
and statistics! The option to re-activate the Logger can be disabled during configuration, see advanced
options in LogTag Analyzer.
Setting the display clock
LogTag Analyzer sets the Loggers internal real time clock to the configuration PC’s time, however the user
can manually change the display clock if required. Press and hold the ‘START/CLEAR/STOP’ button
and ‘REVIEW/MARK’ button together continuously for 8 seconds. During this period the display will flash
‘CLOCK ADJ’.
Release the buttons when the flashing stops to enter ‘CLOCK ADJ’ mode. The minutes will flash. Press
the ‘START/CLEAR/STOP’ button to put in the minutes and press the ‘REVIEW/MARK’ button to accept
the minute changes and to start editing the hours.
The hours will now flash.
Press the ‘REVIEW/MARK’ button to increment the hours and press the ‘START/CLEAR/STOP’ button to
accept and store the new time. If recording is active a clock change event will be recorded with the next
logged reading, which will be displayed in the downloaded data.
