Product Notes
Getting Started
To access the COM Port for the interface cable, unscrew the key-ring end cap. Screw the
end cap back onto the data logger until the o-ring cannot be seen, before deploying the
data logger.
Pressure Sensor
To use the pressure sensor for gauge measurements, screw the 1/4 inch male NPT fitting
into the pipe to be measured with a 9/16"wrench. The NPT fitting can be used for
absolute and submersible applications, but it is preferable to use the submersible fitting.
O-Rings
O-ring maintenance is a key factor when properly caring for the PRTemp1000IS. The
o-rings ensure a tight seal and prevent liquid from entering the inside of the device.
Please refer to the application note “O-Rings 101: Protecting Your Data”, found on the
MadgeTech website, for information on how to prevent O-ring failure.
Installation Guide
Installing the Interface cable
- IFC200: Insert the device into a USB port. The drivers will install automatically.
Installing the software
The Software can be downloaded from the MadgeTech website at the following link at
madgetech.com. Follow the instructions provided in the Installation Wizard.
Device Operation
Connecting and Starting the data logger
- Once the software is installed and running, plug the interface cable into the data logger.
- Connect the USB end of the interface cable into an open USB port on the computer.
- The device will appear in the Connected Devices list, highlight the desired data logger.
- For most applications, select “Custom Start” from the menu bar and choose the desired
start method, reading rate and other parameters appropriate for the data logging
application and click “Start”. ( “Quick Start” applies the most recent custom start options,
“Batch Start” is used for managing multiple loggers at once, “Real Time Start” stores the
dataset as it records while connected to the logger.)
- The status of the device will change to “Running”, “ Waiting to Start” or “Waiting to
Manual Start”, depending upon your start method.
- Disconnect the data logger from the interface cable and place it in the environment to
measure.
Note: The device will stop recording data when the end of memory is reached or the device is stopped. At
this point the device cannot be restarted until it has been re-armed by the computer.
Downloading data from a data logger
- Highlight the data logger in the Connected Devices list. Click “Stop” on the menu bar.
- Once the data logger is stopped, with the logger highlighted, click “Download”. You
will be prompted to name your report.
- Downloading will ooad and save all the recorded data to the PC.

Device Maintenance
Battery Replacement
Materials: Snap Ring Pliers, 9/16"(15mm) wrench and a replacement Battery (TL-2150)
- Remove the end cap of the data logger, the retaining clip using pliers and the white
Teflon washer.
- VERY CAREFULLY use a 9/16"(15 mm) wrench to remove the NPT end of the data logger.
- Once the NPT end is completely unscrewed, gently slide the circuit board out of the
enclosure. Be careful not to break or sharply bend the cable between the level sensor
and the electronics.
- The battery is the purple cylinder on the circuit board, gently pull out the battery.
- Insert the new battery one lead at a time, pressing firmly with your index finger to make
sure the lead is secure in its terminal. Note: The battery should be flat against the circuit board, and the
positive lead should be closest to the communications jack.
- Insert the electronics back into the tube. Make sure the cable is not twisted, sharply
bent, or kinked. From the connection to the circuit board, it should run up towards the
battery, then down the sensor.
- VERY CAREFULLY screw the NPT end cap back onto the tube, making sure the electronics
rotate with the end cap.
- Insert the Teflon washer and retaining clip to secure the electronics and replace the end cap.
