2. Safety
2.1 Intended Use
The logger EB-Logg80CL is designed for long term monitoring of climate data. Not only rela-
tive humidity, temperature and air pressure can be displayed, but also wet-bulb temperature,
dew-point temperature, enthalpy and the moisture content of the air.
The combination of low power consumption with high battery capacity ensure a long record-
ing time.
The last 250.000 measuring values of each variable (that means 1.000.000 values all in all)
are stores in the memory. The LCD-display informs about 2 different variables at the same
time (i.e. temperature and humidity) or about the operating status of the logger.
Only technically qualified persons are permitted to carry out installation, commissioning,
operation and decommissioning. The qualified personnel must have carefully read and
understood the operating manual before beginning any work.
This device must not be used at potentially explosive areas, as safety or emergency stop
devices or in any other application where failure of the product could result in personal
injury or material damage.
This device must not be used at a patient for diagnostic or other medical purpose.
The liability and warranty of the manufacturer for damages and consequential damages
are voided with misuse, disregard of this operating manual, assignment of inadequately
qualified technical personnel and arbitrary modifications of the product.
2.2 Safety signs and symbols
Warnings are labelled in this document with the followings signs:
Caution!
This symbol warns of imminent danger, death, serious injuries and signifi-
cant damage to property at non-observance
Attention!
This symbol warns of possible dangers or dangerous situations which can
provoke damage to the device or environment at non-observance.
Note!
This symbol point out processes which can indirectly influence operation or
provoke unforeseen reactions at non-observance.
2.3 Skilled personnel
are persons who are familiar with the set-up, installation, commissioning and operation of
the product and have appropriate qualification for their work. For example:
•Training or instruction and/or authorisation, power circuits and devices/systems in ac-
cordance with the standards of safety for activation, deactivation, disconnection, earth-
ing and identification.
•Training or instruction in accordance with the standard of safety technology for care
and use of suitable safety equipment.

2.4 Safety guidelines
This device has been designed and tested in accordance with the safety regulations for
electronic devices. However, its trouble-free operation and reliability cannot be guaran-
teed unless the standard safety measures and special safety advises given in this manual
will be adhered to when using the device.
1.
Install the displaying device according to the manufacturer's specifications and
the valid standards and regulations.
2.
Modifications or repairs of the device may not be performed by the customer.
For maintenance or repair the device must be sent to the manufacturer.
3.
Trouble-free operation and reliability of the device can only be guaranteed if the
device is not subjected to any other climatic conditions than those stated under
”Specification”.
To protect the battery, the maximum permissible storage and transport
temperature of the device is 70 °C
4.
Trouble-free operation and reliability of the device can only be guaranteed if the
device is not subjected to any other climatic conditions than those stated under
“Specification”.
5.
When connecting the device to other devices (e.g. PC) the interconnection has to
be designed most thoroughly as internal connections in third-party devices (e.g.
connection GND with protective earth) may lead to undesired voltage potentials.
6.
If there is a risk whatsoever involved in running it, the device has to be switched
off immediately and to be marked accordingly to avoid re-starting.
Operator safety may be a risk if:
- there is visible damage to the device.
- the device is not working as specified.
- the device has been stored under unsuitable conditions for a longer time.
In case of doubt, please return device to manufacturer for repair or maintenance.
7.
Do not use these products as safety or emergency stop devices or in any other
application where failure of the product could result in personal injury or material
damage.
Failure to comply with these instructions could result in death or serious injury
and material damage.
8.
This device must not be used at potentially explosive areas!
9.
This device must not be used at a patient for diagnostic or other medical pur-
pose.

3. Product description
3.1 Required accessory
The logger is configurated, started and read-out via the EASYBus-interface. Therefore the
following accessories are required:
Level converter
- RS232 <> EASYBus (i.e. EBW 1, EBW 64, EBW 240)
- USB <> EASYBus (i.e. EBW 3)
Connecting cable: level converter to EB-Logg
GSOFT 40K (version >7.14):
Windows software to start the logger and read out the logger-data
EASYBus-Configurator (version >2.0):
for the configuration of the extended settings
3.2 Notes on the logger’s delivery status
The delivered logger is in a “sleep mode”, that means nothing is displayed and the
power consumption is at its minimum. When there is a communication with the software
for the first time, the EB-Logg leaves the sleep mode and ›Stop‹ is displayed. Then the
device is ready for operation.
Note: That sleep mode (nothing is displayed) cannot be restored again.
“Stop“ or “Halt“ are similar to the sleep mode. Both of that operation
modes ensure minimum consumption.
Note: Logger start over keypad:
before logger start over keypad, logger time must be adjust with
GSOFT 40K.

5.3 Operating possibilities at the device - Choose number of
EASYBus-Channels
Function
Procedure
Show and adjust
the measurement
channels, address-
able via EASYBus
Push button and at the same time.
The main display shows „S ch“. The secondary display shows
the number of channels, which are addressable via EASYBus.
Adjust via button and the desired number of chan-
nels (1..4).
Important: To change the number of channels, the logger-
display must show ‚Stop‘, so no data saved, and the logger
must not be connected to the EASYBus.
Press Button again to confirm your adjustments and to
leave the menu..
Note: If no key is pressed for more than 2 min, the menu is
quit without saving.
This setting allows the logger, to be a substitute for outdated loggers in existing EASY-
Bus installations.
The table below shows the channels, depending on the selection of ‚S ch‘, which are
addressable via EASYBus.

Independent from the number of selected measuring channels, the EB-Logg 80CL
measures all 4 channels and displays them. But the logger only records the active
channels for EASYBus. Therefore only for these channels, data can be read out.

5.4 Operating possibilities via software GSOFT 40K
You can easily operate the logger via the software GSOFT 40K (> V7.14). This software
provides a variety of functions to operate the logger. For example:
•start and stop the logger
•read out the logger data; illustrate them graphically and save them
•adjust the alarm boundaries and alarm delay *1
•activate the sea-level correction and enter the actual sea level *1
Description: The measured barometric air pressure can be converted to the air
pressure at sea level if the actual height above sea level is entered.
•activate the function: “logger stop via buttons disabled“
*1Please note: The alarm settings and the sea-level correction can be only
changed if the logger is stopped (= logger without logger data).
5.5 Operating possibilities via software EASYBus-Configurator
The software EASYBus-Configurator (> V2.0) is needed to change the configuration
settings.
With that software the following adjustment are additionally possible.
•Selection of the unit of the calculated variables*2
•Offset and slope adjustment for each measured variable *2
•Activation of the function: “do not stop active logger”
*2Please note: This can be only changed if the logger is stopped (=logger without
logger data)
6. Battery life time and recording period
Measuring cycle: 4 sec 3 min 15 min 5 h
Recording period: 11.5 days 521 days 7.1 years 142 years
Battery life time: -- -- ca. 5 years --
Please note: Short measuring cycles seriously reduce the battery life time!
In this case you should consider not unplugging the EASYBus-
interface.
Then the logger is supplied via the interface.
The internal battery is spared.
