TEMPERATURE LOGGER – INSTRUCTIONS V 1.1x
1
INTRODUCTION
TagTemp is a small portable electronic temperature logger. Its
internal sensor measures local environment temperature and logs
such values in an electronic memory. Logged data, or
ACQUISITIONS, can be later viewed and analyzed on a PC where
they can be opened in tabular and graph forms.
The logger is supplied with LogChart-II software, which enables to set
up the logger operation mode. It is also used for viewing acquisitions.
Other parameters such as end of measurements, logging interval, etc.,
are easily defined through the LogChart-II software.
Acquisitions can also be exported to be analyzed in other
applications, such as spreadsheet programs.

OPERATION
It is only possible to operate the logger after the LogChart-II software
is installed to a PC, according to the steps described in LogChart-II
