6. Ensure that the destination computer, where the MicroLogPRO II will be
connected to download the data, has DataSuite installed with an Internet
connection. Go to Tools > Options > Email Settings and use the Test Email
function in the Email Profile Manager to verify the Email settings are working
correctly.
MicroLogPRO II Working Modes
STOP: MicroLogPRO II is idle and not recording. When stopping, the logger
immediately ceases to record data, displaying STOP on the LCD.
To stop the logger directly from the unit, select the Turn off on key press option
in the logger Setup window. Pressing both left and right buttons together for 15
seconds will stop the logger from sampling.
RUN: MicroLogPRO II is recording data. It will stop recording automatically
when its memory has reached full capacity (52,000 samples with one sensor
configured). When full the LCD displays FULL.
CYCLIC RUN: Similar to Run mode, but the logger will continuously sample data,
recording over old data when the memory reaches its capacity, beginning with
the earliest data recording. Cyclic Run mode must be selected from the logger
Setup window.
TIMER RUN: MicroLogPRO II can be configured to start recording at a
predetermined time. When set to Timer Run, the logger LCD displays tRUN.
PUSH TO RUN: MicroLogPRO II will only begin logging data when the user
presses both of the logger's buttons on the key pad for three seconds. Push to
Run mode must be selected from the logger Setup window.
MARKING A TIME STAMP: While the logger is running, pressing both logger
buttons for two seconds will record a new sample and time stamp to the logger
memory. Useful for marking specific events.
Downloading and Viewing the Logger Data
1. Connect the MicroLogPRO II to the computer. The logger is immediately
detected and data download begins automatically, as indicated by this icon:
2. To manually download data, right-click the MicroLogPRO II icon and select

list, use the calendar to select the data set and click OK.
Using the Boomerang Feature
MicroLogPRO II units configured with Boomerang are able to automatically email a
PDF data report via email to predefined contacts when connected to a computer.
The report contains all recorded data in graph format. The destination computer
requires DataSuite and an Internet connection. A default fourtec email profile is
already defined within DataSuite.
To enable Boomerang:
1. Right-click on the MicroLogPRO II icon and select Setup.
2. Configure the logger using the Properties and Sensor tabs, and then click on
the Boomerang Report tab. Select the Include Boomerang Report checkbox to
enable this feature on the connected logger.
3. Select the temperature unit, Cor F, and enter the Generated by and Comment
