Introduction UTRED30-16 User Guide 6
Introduction
The LogTag® UTRED30-16 30-day Dual Channel Temperature Recorder with Display
features a display, USB connectivity, data logging memory storing up to 16065
temperature readings per channel and a separate statistical memory, storing maximum
and minimum reading as well as alarm duration for each of the last 30 days.
During recording the display shows the following, alternating for each channel:
lThe current temperature (of the most recent reading)
lThe alarm status (within or outside the acceptance range)
lAn alarm trigger summary of up to the last 30 days (today and 29 days previous)
lThe current time and battery status
lMinimum and maximum temperatures since the start of the trip
Alarm events can be triggered when a number of readings are outside pre-set
temperature thresholds, and a “day alarm indicator” appears on the display.
Logged temperature data can be viewed on any PC by plugging the unit into a
computer’s USB port via a micro-USB cable. A PDF file is generated, which can be
accessed using free PDF software such as Acrobat Reader. The UTRED30-16 can also be
downloaded to the free companion software LogTag® Analyzer, where you can display
data in chart, list or summary formats. The software also allows electronic archiving and
exporting or transmitting data in support of sophisticated data management systems,
such as LogTag®Online.
