ELECTRONIC DATA LOGGER

- MANUAL V1.1x D

PRESENTATION

LogBox-DA is an electronic data logger with two input channels, one

analog and one digital. Input data is stored in the logger internal

memory, for later download to a PC for visualization and analysis in

the form of tables or graphs. The data is easily exported to

spreadsheets.

The LogChart-II is the software used to configure the logger,

download and visualize data. The logger configuration allows

defining the logger operation mode, including programming the

start/stop time of data acquisition. Other parameters such as signal

input type, logging interval, multiplication factor, scale range, etc, are

easily selected through the LogChart-II software.

The LogBox-DA also provides a signal for commanding an external

power supply (battery) of a device connected to the logger. This

feature allows that external devices, such as a transmitter, be

powered only during the measurement sample time, thus extending

the autonomy of these external batteries.

MEMORY CAPACITY

Two memory storage capacities are offered: 32K or 64K records:

• 32k Model: Allows up to 32,000 records;

• 64k Model: Allows up to 64,000 records;

Memory capacity is always shared between enabled channels. In

case there are two channels enabled, each gets 50 percent of the

memory available. When only a single channel is enabled, it has the

entire memory at its disposal.

Memory capacity is indicated on the identification label placed on the

logger case.

Example:

INPUT SIGNALS

Channel 1 (IN 1) counts electric pulse signals. They can be voltage

pulses, a dry contact (switch) or open collector signals, as selected in

the configuration.

Channel 2 (IN 2) measures linear analog signals, which can be 0-

20mA, 4-20mA, 0-50mV or 0-5V, user defined.

Note: For the channel 2, depending on the input signal selected, it

may be necessary to configure an internal jumper.

DATA ACQUISITION (LOGGING)

Data can be acquired by means of two different modes.

In channel 1, which counts pulses, the number of input pulses

counted in the logging time interval is stored in the logger memory at

the end of the interval. The maximum number of loggings that can be

stored depends on the memory capacity of the device model.

In channel 2, specific for analog signals, the logger can be configured

to perform a single measurement at the end of the selected time

interval storing the value read; 10 measurements within the time

interval and store the mean of values read, or, yet, record the

minimum or maximum values read in the interval.

OPERATION

The logger operation mode is user-defined in the LogChart-II

software. To access or change this configuration, the IR-LINK3

interface is required. The user must install the LogChart-II software in

a computer and run the logger configuration according to instructions

defined in the LogChart-II installation section of this manual.

After configuration and input electric connections made, the device is

ready to measure and log input signals. The status indicators show

the logger current status.

STATUS INDICATORS (LEDS)

The Status Indicators (see Fig. 2) are located in the logger front

panel. They indicate the current working conditions of the unit.

LOG Indicator (Logging): While in stand-by (not logging) or after

a series of acquisitions is ended, it flashes once at every four

seconds. While logging is active, it flashes twice every four

seconds.

ALM Indicator (alarm): Alerts the user regarding alarm conditions.

Once triggered, the alarm LED keeps flashing once at every four

seconds until a new configuration is entered.
