(Note: Above colours are not shown on the file; they are only

•Repla e the line “MEMORY: ode?” with “MEMORY: xxxxx”
where xxxxx is the 5 digit ode spe ifi to your data logger.
For example if your ode is 01234, type:
•“MEMORY: 01234”
•Save the file to a tivate the ode: the red LED of the data
logger will qui kly flash for a few se onds and the data logger
will restart. (The LED is lo ated near the USB plug behind the
transparent window ap).
•Close and and reopen the file CONTROL.TXT. Now, if the
ode was orre t, it will read: “Memory: 00000” indi ating that
the memory is blank and the devi e ready.
Programming: Adjust Time, Date, Scan Rate
•Ea h time the data logger is onne ted to a USB so ket and
CONTROL.TXT is read by the omputer operating system:
the data logger reads its memory, registers and sensor and
hanges the information ontained in CONTROL.TXT. Please
NOTE: we have found that after the data logger has been
onne ted to a USB so ket, all the different operating systems
(we have tested) read the file just ONCE.
•CONTROL TEXT IS CASE SENSITIVE! Use the indi ated
hara ters. Do not hange low ase with High ase one and
vi eversa.
•Open CONTROL.TXT and edit the s an rate, urrent time,
and starting time; do not hange position and length of the
fields; for example: “DATE: 18Y/01M/01D Mo” must not be
hanged in “DATE: 18Y/1M/1D Mo”
•Possible s an rates are: @ms, 01s 10s, 01m, 10m, 01h, 01d,
(00s means stop)
•Save the file, the data logger LED will blink.
•If the data logger LED did not blink the file was not really
saved, but it is just temporarily stored in the omputer a he.
This behaviour depends on the operating system. Windows
and Ubuntu immediately save the file but some other
operating systems or older versions may require you to
unmount the devi e or go through the pro ess of “Safely
remove the devi e”.
