The user cannot change the type and range of the values to be measured. If GSM communication is used, it is necessary to pay attention to a sufficient level of GSM signal at the location. AR006087 One-channel thermometer This model is equipped with only one internal temperature sensor, no additional probes and sensors can be connected. - Page 18 AR004525 Four-channel thermometer for external probes This model can measure up to four temperature values transmitted by Pt1000/E series external probes. The response temperature jump depends on the connected probe design. As a rule, this model is few times faster than that using the inner sensor. It is often used to monitor locations where the device itself is not directly in the measuring space and only probes are in.
- Page 19 AR006089 Thermometer – hygrometer for external probe This model measures temperature, relative humidity and dew point temperature using an outdoor Guilcor Digi/E series probe. response temperature or relative humidity jump is significantly faster than by models with internal sensor.
- Page 20 immediately. The device alone is suitable for measuring in places where there is no rapid change in temperature or relative humidity, and there is no condensation of water vapours. If water vapour condensation occurs inside the datalogger, then the resulting water will remain there and may damage its electronics.
- Page 21 at the installation location. As the internal battery creates a parasitic heat during the charging period, the measurement accuracy may be affected by up to 1 ºC. In battery mode, this model has significantly shorter battery life than models without CO concentration measurement.
- Page 22 AR006092 Two-channel binary-input thermometer for external probes This model can measure up to two temperature values, which are sensed by outdoor Pt1000/0 series probes. In addition, it is provided with two binary inputs for monitoring voltage-signal changes or changes of a signal coming from voltage-free...

Page 27: Setting Up The Device
Setting up the device After the datalogger has been switched on, it starts measuring, data recording and evaluating alarms according to the device’s setting up performed by the user. Complete device setup can be performed by the aid of the user software (hereinafter SW). During configuration editing the device can work normally, nevertheless the access to some functions (record download, contemporary configuration editing by other users) is limited. - Page 28 General - Preferences _____________________________ In this panel you can choose the unit with which the device will measure the temperature (Default temperature unit °C/°F). With some devices the pressure unit can be chosen, too (Default atmospheric pressure unit). When the device does not measure the atmospheric pressure, but when it is necessary to know its value to measure some quantities (calculated humidity and CO ), the atmospheric pressure value must...
- Page 29 in the measurement values and a long battery lifetime is what matters, you can set the measurement interval to 1 minute. The CO concentration channel measures with a 2-minute interval and can be extended up to 10 minutes to save more battery life. For details concerning power consumption, see Technical parameters.
- Page 30 Channels_______________________________________ In this panel you can set all input channels. The assignment of the measurement value and its range to a channel is factory-set and cannot be changed. Supply a suitable name of the location to be measured for each channel and decide whether it will be switched on for measurement and for recording.
- Page 31 momentary overshoots of the limit value. The hysteresis, too, has a similar significance (Alarm hysteresis). It prevents the alarm from oscillating in the case that the measurement value varies around the alarm limit value. It is not recommended to set it equal zero. Thus, the setting for generating an alarm is completed.
- Page 32 An alarm can be signalized by a fast flashing of the LED diode on the device panel (Optical signalling - LED). In the case that only one alarm originating from a measurement value is active, a yellow LED is flashing. In the case that more alarms occur simultaneously, or a system alarm or an alarm originating from an exceeded memory occupancy limit...
- Page 33 Deactivation of the signalling can be according to the device configuration: - permanent - the optical and/or acoustic signalling is deactivated until new alarm occurs. In this case, the "Reactivate muted alarm signalling" item must be switched off in the device configuration. - time-limited (temporary) - if the alarm after the set time interval is still current, the optical and/or acoustic signalling is activated again.
- Page 34 Modem - General _________________________________ In the configuration enter the PIN code for your SIM card, if required (given by the settings of the SIM card used). By default, your device is set to not require the PIN code. If the PIN code is set on the SIM card and the required pin is set incorrectly in the device configuration, the SIM card will be blocked when attempting to connect to the GSM network, see Display warnings chapter.
- Page 35 Modem – Text message - Keep alive SMS ______________ In this panel you can set Keep-alive SMS sending parameters. It means sending information messages at regular intervals, regardless of alarm status. Set the interval for sending Keep-alive text messages. Such messages can be sent by the device to all selected recipients on regular interval basis.
- Page 36 • Periodically in preset interval. The interval is selectable from 5 minutes to once per week and you can set different interval when battery powered and when it have external power available. • Asynchronously (immediately) when preset alarm occur. For battery mode you can select „Buffered mode“ option which collects data into internal buffer and then sends them together in preset interval.

Page 37: Application Notes
Application notes Operation with a constantly connected charger __________ Datalogger is primarily intended to be operated as an autonomous unit powered by its built-in batteries. Nevertheless, you can also operate it with a charger which is constantly connected to it, or with a computer. The datalogger’s internal charging circuitry controls the battery charging process based on its instantaneous condition, thus protecting it against damage. - Page 38 Problems with measurement correctness ______________ Incorrect measurement values of temperature or relative humidity may, in most cases, be caused by an unsuitable probe location or improper methodology. Some notes concerning these problems are mentioned following chapter Recommendations operation and maintenance. In probes using current and voltage outputs incorrect measurement results may be induced by latent coupling between individual components, e.g.
- Page 39 fast for a short time (registration in the network), then more slowly (message sending) to finally go off (finishing). • If the blue diode does not start flashing at all, then the datalogger‘s radio section has not been activated at all. It may be caused by an improper setting: A non-functioning SIM card has been inserted, the SIM Card has been blocked because a wrong PIN has been entered, the alarm is not activated at all, no phone number is...

Page 40: Recommendations For Operation And Maintenance
Recommendations for operation and maintenance Datalogger operation in several application areas________ Before putting the device into operation, it should be considered, if its usage is suitable for the intended purpose. In connection with this consideration the device‘s optimum settings should be determined. In the case that the device is part of a larger measurement system, instructions for its metrological and operational checks should be developed... - Page 41 Positioning of humidity sensors: The positioning of humidity sensors depends again on the application requirements. Humidity measurements in refrigerators without additional humidity stabilization can be very questionable. When the cooling is switched on/off, there may be significant changes in humidity in the range of tens of percent, even if the mean value is correct.
