(sensor) ground conductor, forms a two-conductor cable. The data converter has 2 data line inputs for simultaneously recording measured values from up to two controllers. Connection 1 controller: Controller D-LOGG Connection 2 controllers: Controller 1 D-LOGG Controller 2 Any cable with a cross section of 0.75 mm²... -
Page 5: Usb Interface
UVR1611 – Controllers from version A2.16 additionally allow network input variables to be logged (NETW.IP.=>DL.: yes), which is then handled by the D-LOGG as a second vir- tual UVR1611. Logging of network variables is thus not possible when two physical con- trollers are connected to the data converter. -
Page 6: Usb Driver
USB driver The USB driver is required for USB communication between the PC and D-LOGG and it cre- ates a virtual COM port on the PC for this purpose. The driver must be installed on the PC for this (see "Installation") and is automatically load- ed when a D-LOGG is connected to the PC. -
Page 7: Configuring The Virtual Com Port
For a PC with an internal modem, it should be noted that COM3 is usually used for this modem. The D-LOGG must be connected to the PC in order to configure the virtual COM port in the Windows Device Manager. -
Page 8: Winsol (From Version 2.03)
Winsol Winsol (from version 2.03) The Winsol program is used for the acquisition and evaluation of measured values recorded by the data logger. To be able to capture the data from several systems or data loggers, Winsol enables the creation and management of "Customers". General toolbar Deletes the logger data store Reads the data stored in the logger... -

"Next" is used to switch forward to the next setup window, while "Cancel" is used to cancel setup without changing the logger configuration. 1.

- Page 12 Winsol Temperature difference For fault analysis, a saving criterion of 3.0K is recommended. Each time a temperature measured value changes by more than 3.0K or an output status changes, a "Measured value point-in-time" is saved. In this respect the maximum time resolution is 10 seconds. Adjustment range: 0.5 –...

Page 13: Current Measured Values
Winsol Current measured values In this tab, the actual measured values of the devices linked to the data logger are displayed in tabular format. The tab "Current measured values" is the quickest and simplest option for testing the "Con- troller data logger" data connection. Each data record (device) is displayed in its own view. -
Page 14: Customer Mode
Winsol Customer mode Winsol not only permits the management and analysis of its "own data", rather it also makes possible the analysis of system-external data. This is an important tool for the technician where function monitoring and troubleshooting of customer systems is concerned. Add new customer New customers can be added in the menu "File \ New…". -
Page 15: Recording Of Measured Values From A Customer System
Winsol Recording of measured values from a customer system There are three options for recording the measured values from a customer system: The data logger is installed by the system and regularly read out locally by the service technician using a notebook. If the customer himself records the measured values from his system, then he can forward the log files to the technician by email. -
Page 16: Reading Out From Devices Without A Timestamp
Winsol Reading out from devices without a timestamp Devices without a timestamp are the following: EEG30, ESR21, ESR31, HZR65, TFM66, UVR31, UVR42 and UVR64. These devices do not have an internal clock with time and date. When reading out from these devices, a differentiation is made as to whether the data logger remains connected to the device or not during reading out. -
Page 17: Autostart
Winsol Autostart An automatic reading out of the data when booting the PC can be implemented using the options in the menu "Options \ Autostart". Selection of the customers that are automati- cally read out when booting the PC. The logger data store is then deleted if in the customer setup, delete has been set to au- tomatic or manual. -

Winsol Measured value diagram This window presents the recorded data (log files) over the course of the day. Optimum display of the graphic is possible using the comprehensive adjustment and operat- ing options. A maximum 16 analog and 16 digital values from all the logged values can be displayed simultaneously. -

Grid on/off Makes possible the display and hiding of the grid. Cursor on/off If the cursor is switched off, no measured values are listed on the side and at the top right only the date of the displayed day is henceforth displayed.

Page 25: Memory Manager (From Version 2.07)
Memory Manager (from version 2.07) The Memory Manager program can be used to update the operating system of the data converter. All other functions of the Memory Manager are not used with the D-LOGG. Operating system update Setup contains the settings which are necessary for correct communi- cation between the PC and the D-LOGG. -
Page 26: Operating System Update
Memory Manager Operating System Update The D-LOGG data converter has the same operating system (*.frm) as the BL232 Bootload- er, which can be downloaded from the homepage at http://www.ta.co.at. CAUTION: Newer operating systems are not necessarily compatible with the software al- ready present on the PC. -
Page 27: Troubleshooting
Winsol. 1. Ensure that the data logger is connected to the PC via a USB connection. 2. If no controller is connected to the D-LOGG, then its slide switch must be in the "USB" position. 3. Check in the Windows Device Manager whether the USB driver has been correctly in- stalled (Device Manager Ports (COM and LPT)). - Page 28 Memory Manager The data are recorded with an incorrect timestamp (date, time). 1. As when data logging with the VR1611 or UVR61-3 the timestamp is generated by the controller, in this case the time indication in the controller must be corrected. Warning: To be able to ensure a higher time resolution, the data logger synchronizes with the controller during start-up and as a consequence updates its internal timestamp.
