  • Page 17: Device Runtime And Battery Change

    Device runtime The device runtime of the EnDaL smart depends on the set measurement parameters. Here, the interval setting of the GPS position determination is the key factor. The connection between device runtime and GPS or synchronous interval is illustrated in the following figure:...
  • Page 18 EnDaL smart DEVICE DESCRIPTION OF MONI LOG® ENDAL SMART Battery change Prior to the battery change, the EnDaL smart must be properly switched off. Otherwise a data loss of the device cannot be excluded. Attention: Ensure the right polarity when inserting the batteries!

  • Page 19: Mounting Information

    An enclosure or covering of the GPS antenna may considerably deteriorate the GPS reception or even completely prevent it. A poor GPS reception may lead to an increased current consumption and thus to a shortened device runtime. Mounting holes Figure 2: Dimensions and mounting information of the EnDaL smart - 17 -...

    EnDaL smart PC SOFTWARE – MONI LOG® ANALYZER By this definition the angles in the normal position of the device on the table are not (0°,0°,0°), but (0°,90°,--). The roll angle is 0°, since the z-axis shows in the direction of the axis of the Earth.

  • Page 36: Alarm Events

    A l a r m e v e n t s Alarm events comprise all events created by exceeding/falling below alarm thresholds. IN the EnDaL smart, up to 29,000 alarm events can be stored. They are listed in the programme tab “alarm events” as single tables (pressure events, temperature/humidity events, inclination events/inclination curves, and shock alarm events).
