ENVIRONMENTAL DATA LOGGER SOFTWARE

The ELOG1 environmental data logger connects to your PC (the host) via a RS-232 serial link. If your PC doesn't have a Comm-port available a USB-to-Serial-Adapter (such as the IOGEAR GUC232A) can be used. Two programs are required on the host; a terminal emulation program (such as HyperTerminal), and a spreadsheet (such as Excel). The terminal program is used to extract recorded data from the logger and to configure the logger for a new recording session. The logger is configured by setting its clock, selecting a sample period, and selecting inputs. Any combination of seven inputs can be selected for recording. The sample period can be set from 4 seconds to 1 hour. The total recording time can vary from hours to months depending on the number of inputs selected and the sample period.

  1. Temperature
  2. Analog input 1
  3. Analog input 2 or Barometric Pressure (BP)
  4. Analog input 3 or Relative Humidity (RH)
  5. Light intensity

The ELOG1 downloads recorded data to the terminal program in Comma Separated Values (CSV) format. The terminal program stores this as a *.CSV file which can be read by any spreadsheet program. This allows you to use a familiar spreadsheet program to analyze and display your data.
