the MultiLogPRO's inputs starting with I/O-4 (the splitters must be connected in
order):
•
I/O-4 splits into I/O-4 and I/O-5
• I/O-3 splits into I/O-3 and I/O-6
•
I/O-2 splits into I/O-2 and I/O-7
•
I/O-1 splits into I/O-1 and I/O-8
Note: Before connecting the mini-din cable to the data logger or the sensor
sockets, make sure that the mini-din plug is correctly positioned in front of the
socket. Connecting the cable in an awkward position might cause damage to the
cable pins.
2. a) PC serial communication socket: Connect the 9-pin Type D cable between
this port and one of the computer's PC COM Ports. At the back of the computer
you will find a 9-pin Type D male socket. If your computer is using this port for
the mouse, look for a 25-pin D shell male socket near the mouse. Use the RS-
232 9 to 25-pin adaptor to connect the MultiLogPRO serial cable to the 25-pin
port (the adaptor is included with the MultiLogPRO).
b) PC USB communication socket (optional). Connect the USB Type B plug to
the MultiLogPRO and the USB Type A plug to the PC (see page 26 for USB
driver installation).
3. External DC power supply socket: Plug in an AC/DC 9-12V adaptor whenever
you want to save battery power, or to charge the battery when necessary.
Connecting external power to the MultiLogPRO automatically charges the
internal battery. The adaptor should meet the required specifications (see
section 1.1.4).
1.1.3.

Battery

MultiLogPRO is equipped with a 7.2V NiCad rechargeable battery. Before you first
start working with MultiLogPRO, charge the unit for 10 to 12 hours while it is turned
off. Battery life is approximately 24 hours between charges.
If the data logger's main battery runs out, the internal 3V Lithium battery backs up
the memory, so no data will be lost.
Note: Before storing the data logger make sure you have unplugged all the sensors
and pressed the OFF key.
