HOBO® Temp/RH 3.5% Data Logger (UX100-003) Manual
16209-E
The HOBO Temp/RH data logger records temperature and relative humidity (within 3.5%
accuracy) in indoor environments with its integrated sensors. Using HOBOware®, you can easily
configure the logger alarm to trip for specific high or low sensor readings. Or, you can set up burst
logging in which the logger records data at a different interval during certain conditions. The
logger can also calculate minimum, maximum, average, and standard deviation statistics. This
compact data logger has a built-in LCD screen to monitor the current temperature, relative
humidity, logging status, battery use, and memory consumption in between readouts.

LCD Symbol Description
In this example, the memory is full (all five
segments are filled in) and new data is now
overwriting the oldest data. This
will continue until
the logger is stopped or the battery runs out.
The logger is currently logging.
A sensor reading is above or below the high or low
alarm that you configured. Press and release the
Alarm/Stats button until the “alm” symbol
(described below) is displayed on the screen. This
symbol at left will clear depending on how alarms
were configured in HOBOware. If the alarm was
configured to clear when the logger is relaunched,
this symbol will remain on the LCD. Otherwise, it
will clear when the sensor reading is back within
the alarm limits or by pressing the Alarm/Stats
button for 3 seconds.
An alarm is ready to be cleared. This will only
appear if “Cleared with button press” was selected
in the HOBOware alarm settings. Press the
Alarm/Stats button for 3 seconds to clear the
alarm.
These symbols show the maximum, minimum,
average, and standard deviation values most
recently calculated for the logger (if the logging
mode has been set to Statistics in HOBOware).
Press the Alarm/Stats button for 1 second to cycle
through each of the available statistics and then
back to the current sensor reading (or to the alarm
value if applicable).
This is the sensor reading that tripped the alarm.
Press the Alarm/Stats button to view this reading.
Press the Alarm/Stats button again to cycle
through any statistics (defined above) and
ultimately back to the current sensor reading.
This is an example of a temperature reading.
Temperature units are determined by the settings
in HOBOware. To switch between Celsius and
Fahrenheit, change the Display Preferences in
HOBOware before launching the logger.
This is an example of an RH reading.
The logger has been configured to start logging on
a particular date/time. The display will count down
in days, hours, minutes, and seconds until logging
begins. In this example, 5 minutes and 38 seconds
remain until logging will begin.
The launch settings are being loaded onto the
logger from HOBOware. Do not disconnect the
USB cable during this process.
An error occurred while loading the launch
configurations onto the logger from HOBOware.
Make sure the USB cable is connected to both the
logger and the computer and try launching again.
The logger has been stopped with HOBOware or
because the memory is full.
Notes:
•You can disable the LCD screen when logging. Select
“Turn LCD off” when setting up the logger as described in
the next section. When this option is enabled, you can
still temporarily view the LCD screen by pushing the
Start/Stop button for 1 second. The LCD will then remain
on for 10 minutes.
•The LCD screen refreshes every 15 seconds regardless of
the logging interval selected in HOBOware. If you choose
a logging interval less than 15 seconds, the data will be
recorded at the faster interval, but the sensor readings
will only be updated on the screen every 15 seconds.
•When the logger has stopped logging, the LCD screen will
remain on until the logger is offloaded to a computer or
HOBO U-Shuttle (unless launched with the “Turn LCD off”
option). Once the logger has been offloaded and
disconnected from the computer, the LCD will turn off
automatically after 2 hours. The LCD will turn back on the
next time the logger is connected to the computer.
Setting up the Logger
Use HOBOware to set up the logger, including setting alarms,
selecting the options to start and stop logging, and choosing a
logging mode.
1. Connect the logger and open the Launch Logger window.
To connect the logger to a computer, use the USB cable
provided. Click the Launch icon on the HOBOware toolbar
or select Launch from the Device menu.
Important: USB 2.0 specifications do not guarantee
operation outside the range of 0°C (32°F) to 50°C (122°F).
2. Select the sensors to log in this deployment. Choose
Temperature or Temperature and RH. Type a label for the
sensor(s) if desired. Note that both sensors are required to
calculate dew point, which is an additional data series
available for plotting after reading out the logger.
3. Set up alarms (optional). Click the Alarms button if you
want to configure an alarm to trip when the sensor reading
is above or below a value you specify. See Setting up Alarms
for details.
4. Configure filters (optional). Click the Filters button to
create additional filtered data series. Any filtered series will
be available automatically upon reading out the logger.
5. Select the Logging Interval. Select a logging interval from 1
second to a maximum of 18 hours, 12 minutes, and 15
seconds.
6. Select the Logging Mode:

HOBO Temp/RH 3.5% Data Logger (UX100-003) Manual
1-800-LOGGERS 4 www.onsetcomp.com
•Normal. In Normal mode, data will always be recorded at
the regular logging interval set in the previous step. This
is the default setting.
•Burst. In Burst mode, logging will occur at a different
interval when a specified condition is met. See Burst
Logging for more information.
•Statistics. In Statistics mode, maximum, minimum,
average, and standard deviation statistics are calculated
for all enabled sensors during logging, sampling at an
interval you specify. See Statistics for more information.
7. Choose when to start logging:
•Now. Logging begins immediately.
•At Interval. Logging will begin at the next even interval as
determined by the selected logging interval.
•On Date/Time. Logging will begin at a date and time you
specify.
•Push Button. Logging will begin once you press the
Start/Stop logging button for 3 seconds.
8. Choose when to stop logging:
•When Memory Fills. Logging will end once the logger
memory is full.
•Never (Wrapping). The logger will continue recording
data indefinitely, with newest data overwriting the
oldest. This option is not available if Burst is selected for
the Logging Mode.
•Push Button. Logging will end once you press the
Start/Stop logging button for 3 seconds. If you select
Push Button, you also have the option to select “Resume
logging on next button push.” Select this if you want to
be able to start and stop logging at any time during the
deployment by pushing the Start/Stop button on the
logger. Note that if you also choose Push Button to start
logging, then you will not be able to stop logging until 30
seconds after logging begins.
•Specific Stop Time. Logging will end at a date and time
you specify. Note that if you also configure the logger for
a Push Button stop and to “Resume logging on next
button push,” then the logger will stop logging at the
date you select regardless of how many times you stop
and restart the logger with the Start/Stop button.
9. Choose whether to keep the LCD on or off. By default, the
LCD will always remain on while logging. If you select the
“Turn LCD off” checkbox, the LCD will not show the current
readings, status, or other information while the logger is
logging. You will, however, be able to temporarily turn the
LCD screen on by pressing the Start/Stop button for 1
second if you select this option.
10. Click the Start button to launch the logger. Disconnect the
logger from the computer and deploy it using the mounting
materials (see Mounting the Logger). After logging begins,
you can read out the logger at any time (see Reading Out
the Logger for details).
Setting up Alarms
You can set an alarm to trip on the logger when a sensor
reading rises above or falls below a specified value. To set an
alarm:
1. Click the Alarms button from the Launch Logger window. If
the Alarms button is disabled, make sure the Logging Mode
is not set to Burst. (Alarms can only be configured if the
logger is in Normal or Statistics mode.)
2. Select a sensor. In this example, the temperature sensor
was selected.
3. Select the High Alarm checkbox if you want an alarm to trip
when the sensor reading rises above the high alarm value.
Type the reading next to the High Alarm checkbox or drag
the red upper slider in the Configure Alarms window.
4. Select the Low Alarm checkbox if you want an alarm to trip
when the sensor reading falls below the low alarm value.
Type the reading next to the Low Alarm checkbox or drag
the blue lower slider.
5. Set the “Number of out-of-range samples displayed before
alarm is raised,” which is the number of sensor readings
needed to trigger each alarm. The time next to the
“Number of out-of-range…” field indicates the amount of
time it will take for the alarm to trip based on the number
you entered in that field and the 15-second LCD refresh
rate.
6. Select either Cumulative or Consecutive for the Sensor
Alarm Mode. If you select Cumulative, the alarm will trip
after a specific number of samples (as set in the previous
step) are outside the limits (the high or low samples do not
need to be consecutive). If you select Consecutive, the
alarm will trip after a specific number of samples (as set in
the previous step) outside the limits are displayed in a row.
7. Repeat steps 2 through 6 for the other sensor if desired.
8. Choose how long the logger should maintain a sensor alarm
once it has tripped. Select “Host has relaunched logger” if
you want the alarm to remain visible on the LCD until the
next time you relaunch the logger. Select “Sensor reading
within limits” if you want the alarm to clear once the sensor
reading returns to the normal range between the high and
low alarm limits. Select “Cleared with button press” if you
want the alarm to remain on until you press the Alarm/Stats
button on the logger.
9. Click OK to save alarm settings.

HOBO Temp/RH 3.5% Data Logger (UX100-003) Manual
1-800-LOGGERS 5 www.onsetcomp.com
Notes:
•Once the logger is launched, alarms will trip as
determined by these settings. Logger alarms will display
on the LCD screen. Note that the alarm limits are only
checked when the logger’s LCD screen refreshes every 15
seconds.
•The actual values for the high and low alarm limits are set
to the closest value supported by the logger. For
example, the closest value to 85°F that the UX100 series
logger can record is 84.990°F and the closest value to
32°F is 32.043°F. In addition, alarms can trip or clear
when the sensor reading is within the logger
specifications of 0.02°C resolution. This means the value
that triggers the alarm may differ slightly than the value
entered. For example, if the High Alarm is set to
75.999°F, the alarm can trip when the sensor reading is
75.994°F (which is within the 0.02°C resolution).
•When you read out the logger, high and low alarm levels
will be displayed on the plot along with “Chan <#> Alarm
Tripped” and “Chan <#> Alarm Cleared” events showing
when the sensor alarm tripped and cleared. The “Chan
<#> Alarm Cleared” event contains the value that was
furthest out of range for the sensor before the alarm
cleared (see the Points table for the actual value).
Burst Logging
Burst logging is a logging mode that allows you to set up more
frequent logging when a specified condition is met. For
example, let’s say the logger is recording data at a 5-minute
logging interval and burst logging is configured to log every 10
seconds when the temperature goes above 85°F (the high level)
or falls below 32°F (the low level). This means the logger will
record data every 5 minutes as long as the temperature
remains between 85°F and 32°F. Once the temperature reaches
90°F, for example, the logger will switch to the faster logging
rate and record data every 10 seconds until the temperature
falls back below the high level (or 85°F in this case). At that
time, logging then resumes every 5 minutes at the normal
logging interval. Similarly, if the temperature falls to 30°F, for
example, then the logger would switch to burst logging mode
again and record data every 10 seconds. Once the temperature
rises back to 32°F, the logger will then return to normal mode,
logging every 5 minutes.
To set up burst logging:
1. Select Burst for Logging Mode in the Launch Logger
window. If Burst has already been configured for this
logger, click the Edit button in the Launch Logger window.
Note that you cannot set up alarms with burst logging. You
also cannot select the Stop Logging option “Never
(wrapping)” if burst logging is configured.
2. In the Burst Logging window, select a sensor. In the
example at right, the temperature sensor was selected.
3. Select the High Level checkbox if you want to set up a
condition in which burst logging will occur when the sensor
reading rises above the high level value. Type in the value or
drag the red upper slider (see example at right).
4. Select the Low Level checkbox if you want to set up a
condition in which burst logging will occur when the sensor
reading falls below the low level value. Type in the value or
drag the blue lower slider.
5. Repeat steps 2 through 4 for the other sensor, if desired.
6. Set the burst logging interval, which must be less than the
logging interval. Select either a preset burst logging interval
or select Custom and enter your own interval. Keep in mind
that the more frequent the burst logging rate, the greater
the impact on battery life and the shorter the logging
duration.
7. Click OK when done. This will return you to the Launch
Logger window. Click the Edit button next to Logging Mode
in the Launch Logger window to make additional changes.
Notes:
•Once the logger is launched, the high and low burst
logging levels are only checked when the logger’s
LCD screen refreshes once every 15 seconds. Therefore,
if you set the logging interval to less than 15 seconds and
the sensor reading falls outside the levels, the burst
logging will not begin until the next 15-second refresh
cycle.
•If high and/or low levels have been configured for more
than one sensor, then burst logging will begin when any
high or low condition goes out of range. Burst logging will
not end until all conditions on all sensors are back within
normal range.
•The actual values for the burst logging levels are set to
the closest value supported by the logger. For example,
the closest value to 85°F that the logger can record is
84.990°F and the closest value to 32°F is 32.043°F.
•Burst logging mode can begin or end when the sensor
reading is within the logger specifications of 0.02°C
resolution. This means the value that triggers burst
logging may differ slightly than the value entered. For
example, if the High Level for a temperature alarm is set
to 75.999°F, burst logging can start when the sensor
reading is 75.994°F (which is within the 0.02°C
resolution).
•Once the high or low condition clears, the logging
interval time will be calculated using the last recorded
data point in burst logging mode, not the last data point
recorded in “normal mode.” For example, let’s assume
the logger has a 10-minute logging interval and logged a
data point at 9:05. Then, the high level was surpassed

HOBO Temp/RH 3.5% Data Logger (UX100-003) Manual
1-800-LOGGERS 6 www.onsetcomp.com
and burst logging began at 9:06. Burst logging then
continued until 9:12 when the sensor reading fell back
below the high level. Now back in normal mode, the next
logging interval will be 10 minutes from the last burst
logging point, or 9:22 in this case. If burst logging had not
occurred, the next data point would have been at 9:15.
•A New Interval event will appear on the plot (if you select
events for plotting in the Plot Setup window) each time
the logger enters or exits burst logging mode.
Statistics
Statistics is a logging mode in which the logger calculates
maximum, minimum, average, and standard deviation statistics
during logging, recording the results at each logging interval
based on samples taken at a rate you specify. This will result in
up to four additional series per sensor that record the following
information at each logging interval:
•The maximum, or highest, sampled value,
•The minimum, or lowest, sampled value,
•An average of all sampled values, and
•The standard deviation from the average for all sampled
values.
For example, let’s say both the temperature and RH sensors
have been enabled, the logging interval is set to 5 minutes and
the sampling interval is set to 30 seconds (with maximum,
minimum, average, and standard deviation all enabled). Once
logging begins, the logger will measure and record the actual
temperature and RH sensor values every 5 minutes. In addition,
the logger will take a temperature and RH sample every 30
seconds and temporarily store them in memory. The logger will
then calculate the maximum, minimum, average, and standard
deviation using the samples gathered over the previous 5-
minute period and log the resulting values. When reading out
the logger, this would result in 10 data series (not including any
derived series, such as dew point): two sensor series (with
temperature and RH data logged every 5 minutes) plus eight
maximum, minimum, average, and standard deviation series
(four for temperature and four for RH with values calculated
and logged every 5 minutes based on the 30-second sampling).
To set up statistics:
1. Select Statistics for Logging Mode in the Launch Logger
window. If Statistics has already been configured for this
logger, click the Edit button in the Launch Logger window.
2. Click the Maximum, Minimum, Average, and Standard
Deviation checkboxes for each of the statistics you want to
calculate during logging. Note that Average is automatically
enabled when selecting Standard Deviation. Important:
Statistics apply to all enabled sensors; every selected
statistic will be calculated for all sensors (except battery
voltage). For example, if both the temperature and RH
sensors have been selected in the Launch Logger window
and you select Average, then the average will be calculated
for both temperature and RH. In addition, the more
statistics you record, the shorter the logger duration and
the more memory is required.
3. Set the sampling interval, which must be less than and a
factor of the logging interval. Choose either a preset
sampling interval or select Custom and enter your own
sampling interval. Keep in mind that the more frequent the
sampling rate, the greater the impact on battery life.
4. Click OK when done. This will return you to the Launch
Logger window. Click the Edit button next to Logging Mode
in the Launch Logger window to make additional changes.
Once logging begins, click the Alarm/Stats button on the logger
to cycle through the current maximum, minimum, average, and
standard deviation data on the LCD screen. You can plot the
statistics series once you read out the logger.
Reading Out the Logger
There are two options for reading out the logger: connect it to
the computer with a USB cable and read out it with HOBOware,
or connect it to a HOBO U-Shuttle (U-DT-1, firmware version
1.18m030 or higher) and then offload the data files from the
U-Shuttle to HOBOware. Refer to the HOBOware Help for more
details.
Recording Internal Logger Events
The logger records the following internal events to track logger
operation and status. You can plot these events in HOBOware
after reading out the logger and opening the data file.
Internal Event Name Definition
Host Connected The logger was connected to the computer.
Started The Start/Stop button was pressed to begin
logging.
Stopped The logger received a command to stop
recording data (from HOBOware or by
pushing the Start/Stop button).

Mounting the Logger
There are several ways to mount the logger using the materials
included:
•Use the four built-in magnets on the back of the logger to
mount it to a magnetic surface.
•Attach the Command strip to the back of the logger to
mount it a wall or other flat surface.
•Use the double-sided tape to affix the logger to a surface.
•Insert the hook-and-loop strap through the mounting
loops on both sides of the logger to mount it to a curved
surface, such as a pipe or tubing.
Protecting the Logger
The logger is designed for indoor use and can be permanently
damaged by corrosion if it gets wet. Protect it from
condensation. If the message FAIL CLK appears on the LCD
screen, there was a failure with the internal logger clock
possibly due to condensation. Remove the battery immediately
and dry the circuit board.
Note: Static electricity may cause the logger to stop logging.
The logger has been tested to 8 KV, but avoid electrostatic
discharge by grounding yourself to protect the logger. For more
information, search for “static discharge” in the FAQ section on
onsetcomp.com.
Replacing the RH Sensor
The internal RH sensor may require replacement if it is
damaged mechanically or by exposure to condensation or
chemicals. The replacement sensor is available from Onset
(HUM-UPS-500). To replace the sensor:
1. Use a screwdriver to pop out the louvered door in the
logger case.
2. Use needle-nose pliers to remove the RH sensor from the
board inside the logger case and discard it.
3. Insert the new sensor so that the pins are in the two holes
on the board (shown here enlarged and without the logger
case for illustrative purposes).
4. Snap the louvered door back into place in the logger.
5. Check logger status in HOBOware to verify the RH reading.
Battery Information
The logger contains a 3V CR2032 battery (HRB-TEMP). Expected
battery life varies based on the ambient temperature where
the logger is deployed, the logging or sampling interval,
frequency of offloading to the computer, number of channels
that are active, if burst or statistics logging modes are active,
and battery performance. A new battery typically lasts 1 year
with logging intervals greater than 1 minute. Deployments in
extremely cold or hot temperatures, a logging interval faster
than 1 minute, or a sampling interval faster than 15 seconds
can impact battery life. Estimates are not guaranteed due to
uncertainties in initial battery conditions and operating
environment.
The logger can also be powered by the USB cable when the
remaining battery voltage is too low for it to continue logging.
Connect the logger to the computer, click the Readout button
on the toolbar, and save the data as prompted. Replace the
battery before launching the logger again.
To replace the battery:
1. Open the battery door on the top of the logger.
2. Use the tab on the built-in battery removal tool inside the
compartment to remove the battery.
3. Place the circular battery removal tool around the negative
side of the new battery with the tab up. Insert the new
battery with the positive side facing out. The LCD should
display “HOBO” briefly after correctly installing the battery.

of the logger or battery in fire. Do not expose the contents of
the battery to water. Dispose of the battery according to local
regulations for lithium batteries.
HOBOware provides the option of recording the current battery
voltage at each logging interval, which is disabled by default.
Recording battery life at each logging interval takes up memory
and therefore reduces logging duration. It is recommended you
only record battery voltage for diagnostic purposes.
