7. BLUETOOTH ACTIVATION
Placing a magnet near the location pinpointed for 1-2 seconds automatically
activates the BT communication (buzzer sounds).
Placing a magnet near the location pinpointed for over 6 seconds causes a
hardware reset within LOGS50 (buzzer sounds).
Figure 9: Magnet for BT activations & LOGS50 reset.
8. LOGS50 INSTALLATION POINT
Bear in mind the characteristics of the installation point and materials
surrounding it. I. e, whether it is or not a subterranean location, whether the
enclosing surrounding is metallic or not, etc. All these aspects may have
important influence in communication quality due to signal attenuations. For
cases such those, use external antennas outside the metallic surrounding
(metallic cabinets) and when subterranean locations place the antenna nearest
possible to ground level.
Figure 10: Equipment Locations to pay attention to.

1. GENERAL
1.1. INTRODUCTION
This manual presents installation and operation instructions for LOGS50
loggers, a device designed to: collect, register, send data, detect and send
alarm messages, act on digital outputs, receive communications from the
outside, etc.
Its functionality is not predefined, the user decides to give specific operations to
his group loggers; therefore, it is necessary to upload a set of operating
instructions to the LOGS50 so that every unit knows exactly the tasks have to
be undertaken.
LOGS50 has two working modes:
- Standard mode: where data logging and GSM / GPRS / 3G activities are
executed.
- Low power consumption mode: Between two activities of data logging the
device remains in low power consumption mode so that it can save energy to
make the battery last longer.
1.1.1 PRODUCT GENRAL FEATURES
LOGS50 has a minimum autonomy of 3 years (at 25ºC and 5 minutes of
communication per day), being prepared to work in a wide range of
temperatures ranging from -20ºC to +60ºC and enduring a maximum level of
vibrations in operation conditions of 0.76 m2/s3 (10-12Hz).
The enclosure features are:
Ingress protection level. Two version; IP67 version (ABS enclosure with
white lid) and IP68 version (ABS enclosure with ash grey lid)
Up to 4 IP68 metallic circular mini connectors.
Data recordings are stored in engineering units (e.g.: m3/s, ºC, etc.). Every
history data recording besides their predefined values also include a time stamp
that corresponds to the moment of the data acquisition.
The product has the option of being re-programmed to incorporate new
firmware updates.
Last, GSM / GPRS / 3G module works with a SIM card the user should acquire
in advance and place it in the holder the same as it is done in a mobile phone.

Installation Manual LOGS50 EN_MI_090221
1.1.2 INTERNAL ELECTRONIC FEATURES
The electronics include a voltage supervisor in charge of verifying the power
supply limits of the system and includes also a real-time clock. Samples are
taken at programmed time intervals. Every sample’s record is always
accompanied by a time-stamp. The logger incorporates a soft-start for external
power supplies. It also includes a pulse consumption circuitry for internal and
external battery discharge measurement 1.
There is a minimum gap of time between samples of 2 seconds that should
be respected. 2 seconds is also the resolution when defining a time interval, i.e.,
LOGS50 can be configured to make data acquisitions for instance, on
“15/03/2009, 17:15:(00 / 15 / 30 / 45)”.
The logger has awakening capability by digital input transition.
1.1.3 INTERNAL POWER SUPPLY
The device has internal lithium battery cells supplying the necessary power for
its autonomous operation.
1 It will be the final user who decides, by means of the Dataloggers’ Configurator software CONF50 in the administrative
data file, over which part of the electronic circuitry the consumption pulse has to be done. This consumption pulse can
be done or over the internal battery or over the external battery included in the battery kit. The user will be able to
choose from these two options.

Installation Manual LOGS50 EN_MI_090221
1.1.4 EXTERNAL POWER SUPPLY
Apart from the internal power supply, the logger also accepts powering from
both a suitable commercial external power supply and or / an external battery kit
available on catalogue.
Note: Always respect the terminal polarities shown in each type of electrical power supply available to feed
the equipment.
1.1.5 LOCAL INPUTS & OUTPUTS
Local digital inputs: There are up to 8 digital inputs with two possible
group configurations. There is a common terminal to all inputs used for
reference, GND.
Local analog inputs: There are up to 4 analog inputs divided in two
groups. By default, they work as 4-20 milliamp current loop. They can also
be configured in voltage mode (0-10 V). Each group of analog inputs has a
common terminal called GND. The working mode selection is done via
microswitches. The software type of analog input must much the hardware
selection.
Local digital outputs: There are 2 potential free outputs (dry contact)
associated to the contacts of two relays or 2 solenoid outputs (12 VDC & 2-
wire solenoids)
Each analog input has its microswitch.
Note: Panel connectors DI1-AI1 and DI2-AI2 carry the electrical signals to and from the logger. Through
each connector circulate up to 4 digital signals and 2 analog signals and a 24-Volts power supply. The
GND signal of each connector is shared by both digital and analogical signals. i.e., both DI1-AI1 and DI2-
AI2 only have a GND wire shared by all the signals of the same group.
