2. INTR
O
DUCTION
LogBox BLE is a wireless data logger for three analog se
n
sors and one digital sensor, known as analog and digital measurement channels. In
addition, it can opera
t
e on batteries for long periods, with a memory capacity for up to 140,000 logs, having a large display for visuali
z
ation of
m
easured variables and general device information. The dev
i
ce enclosure has a protection cover for the connections, a locking ring and a
m
ounting
bracket that can be mounted on a wall or on a metal surface, by means of the optional holder with magnetic inserts.
The analog inputs accept any type of temperature sensor, s
u
ch as thermocouples, Pt100 or sensors for any other quantities with current or voltage
s
ignals. The digital channel can log the time of events, such as opening a door, or counting pulses from a flow sensor. LogBox BLE
a
lso has
internal sensors: tem
p
erature, battery voltage, and external source voltage, which can also record the values in the memory, taking the pla
c
e of any
of the available measurement channels. Its wide display allows you to view up to 3 variables simultaneously, and displays indications
s
uch as
alarms, communication status, enabled channels, battery v
ol
tage level, and much more. LogBox BLE also has a buzzer for audible aler
t
s and a
digital output that can be used as an alarm output or as an el
e
ctronic key to power sensors.
LogBox BLE, during operation, logs the data in the memory, with the interval between logs being configurable. All device configuration
s
can be
accessed by user via desktop or notebook connected to LogBox BLE USB interface or through an Android or iOS smartphone via Bluet
o
oth. For
u
s
e with computers, NOVUS provides the NXperience software in the website download area. For users with smartphone, NOVUS makes the
NXperience Mobile
a
pplication available on Google Play Store or App Store (iOS). Both software tools allow log configuration, data downl
o
ad, and
analysis.

3. DISPLAY AND NAVIGATION
3.1 DISPLAY INFORMATION
LogBox BLE has an LCD display with 3 numerical lines of
4
½ digits to display the current value of all enabled channels, as well as the
m
ini
m
u
m
and maximum values thereof. At the same time, it is possible to display the current value of up to 3 analog channels and, in a second s
c
reen, if
enabled, it is possibl
e
to display the digital input current value. In addition to channel information, LogBox BLE has 7 screens with a variety of
information and features, with 24 symbols that allow for easy information visualization and diagnostics.
Below is an illustratio
n
of the display with a descriptive of functionality for each symbol present in it.

O
PERATION AUTONO
M
Y
The LogBox BLE comes with 4 AA alkaline batteries (1.5 V each) with a working temperature specification of -10 °C to 50 °C. They have a
c
apacity of 2000 mAh, which gives the typical duration of 2 years in the following configuration:
•
Log Interval: 5 minutes;
•
Bluetooth Frequency: 1 second.
NXperience, when fi
n
alizing a configuration, displays a ty
p
ical battery runtime estimate for the configuration being applied. For a ba
t
tery life
e
s
timate based on th
e
device configuration, use it. The auto
n
omy displayed by the configuration software is estimated and does not use infor
m
ation
about batteries’ curr
e
nt statuses. In addition, several factors may contribute to the failure of the autonomy presented. Therefore, fo
l
low the
information described in the text below to avoid premature w
e
ar of the batteries.
Very high (over 30 °C (86 °F)) or very low (below 10 °C (50 °F)) temperatures cause the battery chemistry to react outside typical operation
c
haracteristics, reduc
i
ng the typical range. Thus, when oper
a
ting the device in these ranges, consider that the 2-year expectation can be reduced
c
onsiderably.
Very high temperatur
e
s (above 30 °C (86 °F)) or very low t
e
mperatures (below 10 °C (50 °F)) make the LogBox BLE circuit greatly increase its
c
onsumption. Thus, when operating the device in these rang
e
s, consider that the 2-year expectation can be reduced considerably.
Some scenarios can
g
reatly increase LogBox BLE consum
p
tion, thus, considerable reducing the battery service life expectancy. Here are so
m
e
e
x
amples that may d
e
crease battery life:
•
Alar
m
: Alarm occurrences more than once a day and wit
h
a buzzer duration over 30 seconds.
•
Bluetooth: Confi
g
uration management, monitoring, or downloads performed by the Bluetooth interface at a frequency higher than once a
month.
•
Data Do
w
nload: Downloads made by the Bluetooth interface, of the whole memory, with a frequency more than once a month.
•
Event Log: Event
s
that occur at a frequency greater than once every hour.
When necessary, th
e
batteries can be replaced with any
m
odels that have characteristics similar to alkaline batteries (1.5 V). However, it is
re
c
ommended to replace them with the same model that accompanies the LogBox BLE (Energizer E91) or Energizer L91 (because it has
a
higher
operation temperature range) in order to guarantee the estim
a
ted battery life expectancy and the specified job. If you choose to use another battery
m
odel, it is necessary to check the working temperature and
t
he capacity expectation of it.
Never mix batteries of different models, or new batteries with used ones. Whenever you are replacing the batteries,
replace all of them at the same time.
Check the batteries polarity before inserting them into the device. Never use an inverted battery.

5. INPUT SIGNALS READING
LogBox BLE allows
u
sers to choose, along with channels to be registered and sensor types, some configurations that provides flexibility to various
applications, allowing users to consider the energy resource
s
(battery life) and data storage (length of log memory). Thus, it is possible to c
o
nfigure
the device with the following parameters:
● Log Interval: Frequency, in seconds, with which an acquisition must be made and logged in the memory. Low frequency increases battery
consumption and
f
ills memory faster.
○
Mini
m
u
m
Interval:
■
1 second (If no channel is configured to operate o
n
average);
■
10 second
s
(If a channel is configured to operate
o
n average).
○
Maxi
m
u
m
Int
e
rval: 24 hours.
● Display Update Interval: Frequency, in seconds, with which an acquisition must be made and updated on the display. It allows you to save
memory by configuring it to a larger range of logs with a f
a
ster Display update rate. Low interval increases battery consumption. This r
a
nge can
be disabled by configuring it to ‘0’. Thus, the display update will take place in the log interval.
○
Mini
m
u
m
Interval: 1 second;
○
Maxi
m
u
m
Int
e
rval: 1 hour.
When configuring a display update interval, it should be les
s
than the log interval. Otherwise, it will be ignored, and the display will be up
d
ated in
the Log Interval.
The display update in
t
erval only updates analog channels th
a
t are not configured to operate on average. Thus, the digital channel that is configured
to operate in pulse c
o
unting mode and the analog channels that are configured to operate on average will only have their information updated at
each log interval.
If
t
he digital channel i
s
operating in the "Event Log" mode, it
u
pdates its respective information on the display to each event.
5.1 ANALOG INPUTS

The accuracy of these types of signals is described in the ch
a
pter TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS. The connection of these signals is des
c
ribed in
c
hapter INSTALLATION.
An analog/digital (A/D) converter with high resolution and accuracy is used to read the sensors connected to the analog channel inputs. In the
desired scan range, all the analog channels enabled will be r
e
ad.
Each type of input signal has a valid measuring range (de
t
ailed in chapter TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS). However, the device typi
c
ally can
m
easure signals which slightly exceed the limits of this rang
e
. How much it can measure beyond the range depends on the type of input co
n
figured
and might vary between different devices.
The following table describes what to expect in the LogBox BLE display according to the signal applied to the input for each configured input type.

Table 02 – Measurement and indication of input types by LogBox BLE
LogBox BLE allows
y
ou to configure settings to be applied to analog sensor readings. These settings can be used to correct sensor or process
errors in which the sensor is installed and can be applied indi
v
idually for each analog channel. Two adjustment modes are provided by the
d
evice:
• O
ffset: It allows f
o
r each analog channel to choose an o
f
fset value to be added to the channel reading indication. It is a simple and fas
t
feature
to adjust the display throughout the range.
•
Custo
m
Calibration: It is a feature that allows you to e
n
ter up to 10 set points for each channel in order to correct distortions in reading these
channels at these points. We call this characteristic a "Custom Calibration
"
because it allows the user to adjust the indication at the desired
points by zeroing the error at those points. The adjustment is made linearly between the points entered, according to the values entered.
It
i
s important to note that both the offset adjustment and th
e
insertion of custom calibration points is optional, only available for those wh
o
wish to
adjust the indication to a local standard, since the LogBox BLE is already fully factory calibrated.
When
e
ver you change the input type, mak
e
sure that the custom calibration points of the previous input are deleted!
For each analog cha
n
nel, a unique tag must be assigned, which will be used to reference the channel. You should also choose the type of input
(
s
ensor) that will be connected to that channel. In addition
t
o that, you can assign the unit of measured value: when using temperature sensors
(Pt100 or thermocou
p
les) you must choose between Celsius (°C) and Fahrenheit (°F) degrees; when using linear sensors (current or voltage), you
c
an enter the desired unit.
In the case of linear
i
nput types, one must choose the sensor indication range, that is, what the channel should indicate when the input is at its
m
inimum value and what it should indicate when it is at its maximum value (minimum and maximum values considering the LogBox BLE working
range for the chosen input type). Example: the input type 4
t
o 20 mA is selected and a pressure transmitter from 0 to 2 bars is connected. In this
c
ase, "0.0" must be c
h
osen as the minimum value and "2.0" as the maximum value in the input configuration. All resolution and accuracy
a
vailable
will be contained within the chosen range.
When using any device on the analog inputs that are connected to the mains (e.g., thermocouple or voltage simulator), and it is not isol
a
ted, it is
re
c
ommended to use a different reading interface than USB. In some cases, noise and read offsets have already been detected du
e
to the
in
f
luence of the USB cable connection, probably by ground l
o
ops.
The LogBox BLE, when operated by batteries, keeps the
e
ntire analog circuit switched off while no acquisition is being made. This strategy is
necessary so that it c
a
n operate for more than 2 years without needing to change batteries. This characteristic may cause some undesirable effects
during calibration, as
s
ome analog signal simulators (e.g., t
h
ermocouple simulator, Pt100) may not operate properly, causing false reading offsets
and oscillations. If su
c
h a problem is identified, it is recommended to power the LogBox BLE via external power supply or USB while using the
s
imulator.
It is important to set the local network frequency (50 Hz or 6
0
Hz) to improve the reading performance of the analog channels, even if the
d
evice is
running on batteries. The power grid typically causes interference in the signal read from the sensors, which can be more easily mitigat
e
d if we
k
now the frequency.

5.2 DIGITAL INPUT
LogBox BLE has a digital input channel that can be configured for
"
Pulse Count
"
,
"
Event Log
"
, or even for
"
Logs Control
"
. This digital inpu
t
can be
disabled.
Regardless of the function for which it will be used, the sensor output type that will be connected to the input must be configured: PNP, NPN, or Dry
Contact (refer to chapter INSTALLATION to see how the s
e
nsors should be connected). In addition to that, you must select which digital signal
edge of interest to ge
n
erate the count, event or start/end of logs for: rising edge, falling edge, or both edges.

For Dry Contact sens
o
rs, it is necessary to set a debounce t
i
me of at least 50 ms (sensor stabilization time - time in which the sensor must re
m
ain
in the state of interest for it to be considered valid). However, for PNP or NPN type sensors, it is not necessary to set a debounce time if
t
hey are
c
onfigured for "Pulse Count". However, if the digital input is configured for
"
Event Log
"
or
"
Logs Control
"
, a minimum debounce of 50 ms is required
to prevent any noise from generating a false event. In the "Event Log
"
and
"
Logs Control
"
modes, events will be generated after the e
n
d of the
debounce time.
5.2.1 PULSE COUNT
When setting the digit
a
l input in "Pulse Count" mode, you ca
n
select an application mode:
"
Flow Rate
"
or
"
Count
"
.
The "Flow Rate" mod
e
allows, if "Average Flow by Acquisition Interval
"
is selected, to log the average flow rate or, if
"
Volume since Last Reset" is
s
elected, to count the total volume within a previously configured period until the count is reset.
The "Count" mode, in turn, allows, if the "Acquisition Interv
a
l Counting
"
option is selected, to count the number of pulses that occurred within the
Log Interval or, if the "Accumulated Count since Last Reset", to count the total number of pulses logged within a preset period until the count is
reset.
LogBox BLE has a 32-bit register, responsible for accumulating the volume or number of pulses within a certain configurable reset interval. For
example, you can set the device to reset on a monthly basis or on a specific day and time (See ACCUMULATOR RESETTING MODES section of
the C
O
NFI
G
URATI
O
N SOFTWARES chapter).
LogBox BLE also h
a
s a 16-bit register, responsible for measuring the average flow rate per acquisition interval or for performing the c
o
unt per
a
c
quisition interval. At each log interval, LogBox BLE cou
n
ts the number of pulses that have occurred and registers it in memory, resetting the
register so that it can
a
ccumulate the pulses of the next inter
v
al.
If the sensor is a Dry Contact type, the LogBox BLE count registers (16 bits and 32 bits) will be able to count up to 10 pulses per second. For PNP
and NPN sensors, 2
0
00 pulses per second. However, in the case of the 16-bit register, it is important to note that these pulses will accu
m
ulate
wi
t
hin each logging interval. Thus, if the "Average Flow through Acquisition Interval
"
or
"
Acquisition Interval Count
"
modes are selected, it is
necessary to evaluate the maximum sensor frequency so that it does not exceed 65535 counts (16 bits) within the logging interval, ca
u
sing an
overflow in the logger that accumulates them.
If the maximum sens
o
r frequency is 2 kHz, LogBox BLE will accumulate 2000 pulses per second for up to 32 seconds. Upon excee
d
ing this
interval, the number of accumulated pulses will exceed 655
3
5 counts, resulting in overflow in the 16-bit register. For a sensor that can re
a
ch 2000
pulses per second, the recommended log frequency should
b
e less than 32 seconds.
When the option "Vol
u
me since last reset" or the option "Acc
u
mulated count since last reset
"
is selected, the number of counts is, in turn, li
m
ited by
the 32-bit accumulator register and, thus, enables the counting of a limit number of 4294967295 pulses. Thus, the periodicity of the reset
m
ust also
be adjusted according to the frequency of the sensor pulses. By keeping the same example of sensor use at maximum frequency, i.e. 2
k
Hz, it is
recommended that th
e
periodicity be less than 24 days, otherwise an overflow will be generated in the register.
In typical applications, such as flow and volume measureme
n
t, simple pulse counting is not enough, being necessary to convert these pulses into a
flow unit. For this, one can select the desired flow unit and
a
conversion factor that transforms the number of pulses generated by the connected
transmitter in flow information. The pulse conversion logged in the interval for the flow unit configured by the user will occur every time th
e
logged
data is displayed.
To streamline the co
n
figuration of the digital channel in "Pulse Count
"
mode and the conversion to flow in the unit required for the user, LogBox
BLE provides the following units of measure:
Flow Units
l/s,
l/min,
l/h,
gal/s,
gal/min,
gal/h,
m³/s,
m³/min,
Sensor Units
pulses/l,
pulses/gal,
pulses/m³.
15/65

m³/h.
Table 04 – Units of measure
If
y
ou use one of these flow and sensor units, you only need to inform the
"
Sensor Factor
"
parameter. If none of the units available is required, you
need to calculate the
"
User Factor", relating it to the "User Unit
"
parameter, and fill in the parameter so that LogBox BLE can correctly convert the
pulses to the unit required. In this case, LogBox BLE will co
n
vert the pulses to the user unit as follows:
● User Value
=
((Count)/(Sensor Factor))*(Unit Factor)
○
It is not necessary to consider the log interval for calculations.
Figure 2 – Digital Input
If
t
he user wants to v
i
sualize the production of pieces in "pi
e
ces per minute
"
, for example, and the application has a sensor of the type PNP that,
e
v
ery 30 pulses in th
e
rising edge, computes the produced piece, the following parameters must be configured on the digital input of the device:
•
Input Type: Puls
e
Count.
•
Sensor Type: PNP.
•
Counting Edge: Rising.
•
Application: Flow Rate.
•
Sensor Factor: 30 (pulses/piece).
It is necessary to select the "Average Flow by Acquisition Int
e
rval
"
option and, after that, fill in the following parameters:
•
Unit: Custom.
•
Unit Factor: 60 (conversion of pieces per second to pieces per minute).
It is also possible to select the "Volume since Last Reset" opt
i
on and, after that, fill in the following parameters:
•
Unit: Custom.
•
User Factor: 1 (s
t
orage the accumulated number of pieces).
Thus, LogBox BLE will log, in each log interval, the number of pulses occurring within that period, and every time the data is displayed, it will turn
those pulses into the
n
umber of pieces produced per minute (custom unit of the user).
In the same example, let’s say that the log interval is 20 seconds. Thus, if the sensor gives 20 pulses per second, the LogBox BLE will regi
s
ter 400
pulses per range, dis
p
laying to the user 40 pieces per minute (((20 pulses/s)/(30 pulses/piece)) * 60 (1 min) = 40).
5.2.2 EVENT LOG
If
t
he digital input is configured for Event Log, each selecte
d
border will cause a log in the memory, informing the event and the instant the event
o
c
curred. This log will not be synchronized with the periodic logs, but will also respect the logs start and stop mode. Events will be logged after the
c
onfigured debounce time expires. Thus, events will be logged with the debounce time delay. LogBox BLE can log up to 10 events within 1
s
econd.
5.2.3 LOGS CONTROL
You can use the digit
a
l input to start and/or pause the logs o
f
the other input channels. Once configured as Logs Control, each border selected will
s
tart or stop the process of in-memory logs. As in the Event Log mode, detected events will only act after the configured debounce time expires.
Thus, the start/pause of the logs will be performed with the d
e
bounce time delay.

The LogBox BLE ha
s
a PNP-type digital output which, when triggered, places the voltage from the external source to the digital output
p
in. The
LogBox BLE digital
o
utput can be disabled or configured to
o
perate in one of the modes described below:
● Auxiliary Electronic Switch: Used to control the power
s
upply of external instruments during analog channel readings.
Ex.: 4-20 mA transmitters can be powered by the digital output pin, so that they can only be turned on at the time they are read, thu
s
, saving
power from LogBox BLE external power supply, which can be a 12 V battery. In the
"
Auxiliary Electronic Switch
"
mode, it is necessary to set
how long before each acquisition the digital output must b
e
triggered.
○
Drive Ti
m
e: Set, in seconds, how long before each acquisition the digital output must be triggered. It is deactivated as soo
n
as the
acquisition is complete. This time cannot be longer t

an the lowest acquisition range (Instantaneous, Average = 1/10 of the instan

7. DATA REGISTERING
Data registering will be done in LogBox BLE’s internal me
m
ory. The internal memory capacity is up to 140,000 logs. The number of logs that can
be stored in the internal memory depends basically on the
n
umber of input channels that are enabled, as well as factors such as recordi
n
g or not
re
c
ording the digital input event.
Any channel types (a
n
alog or digital in "Pulse Count" or "Event Log
"
modes) can be recorded in the memory. In the case of analog chann
e
l logs or
the digital input in "P
u
lse Count" mode, the log is periodic and has its interval configured through the configurator software. At the end of
e
ach log
interval, the current
v
alues of the enabled channels are lo
g
ged in the memory. In case the digital input is configured as
"
Event Log
"
, the logs
detected by it will be
p
erformed asynchronously to the frequency of the other channels and will be performed at the moment the event occurs.
There are several wa
y
s to start and stop logs, many of whic
h
can be combined freely. During registering, all selected channels will be logged in the
m
emory and the rang
e
between logs will be respected.
Depending on the ty
p
e of start and stop selected, there ma
y
be log
"
snippets
"
in the memory and, therefore, periods with no logged dat
a
. This is
fully compatible with the device and is not a problem at all.
In addition to the start and stop modes, you must also config
u
re the memory mode, which can be:
● Circular Me
m
ory: Logs will be made continuously in the selected memory. When the memory is full, the oldest data will be erased so that the
most recent data can be saved.
● Full Me
m
ory: Lo
g
s are terminated when the memory ha
s
no more space available.
The available start modes are as follows:
● I
mm
ediate Start: The logs will start immediately after rec
o
nfiguring the device.
● By Date/Ti
m
e: The logs will start in the configured date/time.
● By Keyboard: Th
e
re is a screen in the display where yo
u
can change the log status to enabled. Therefore, the logs will start at this point if they
are not already st
a
rted.
● By Digital Input: When the digital input is triggered, th
e
logs are started. In this case, the digital input channel must have been set
t
o "Logs
Control" mode. To control the logs by digital input, four m
o
des are possible:
○
Starts logs at
e
ach rising edge;
○
Initiates logs a
t

○
Logs at logical level "1" (logs while at logical level "1")

● Daily: The logs ar

● By Date/Ti

8. ALAR
M
S
LogBox BLE has fo
u
r channels, where in each of them it i
s
possible to set a minimum and a maximum alarm. Alarms are displayed an
d
can be
c
onfigured to trigger an internal buzzer for audible warning a
n
d a digital output for user control.
The alarm configurati
o
n general parameters are described b
e
low:
● Buzzer Runti
m
e: Sets the buzzer runtime for each time the device enters an alarm situation. The configuration is performed in second
s
fro
m
0
to 65000 s, where 0 means that the buzzer should not be triggered. The longer the buzzer runtime, the greater the battery consumptio
n
during
the alarm situatio
n
.
● Digital
O
utput Mode: A digital output can be configure
d
to follow the alarm situation. This way, whenever an alarm situation is satis
f
ied, the
digital output will
b
e activated. The digital output will only be disabled if no channel is in an alarm condition.
When an alarm cond
i
tion is satisfied, the symbol is
l
it along with the , , , symbols, which correspond to the channels that
s
atisfy the alarm situation in current state. The , , , symbols indicate that the channel is currently in an alarm situation. Th
e
s
ymbol indicates that since the device was powered on or since the last alarm status was cleared, an alarm occurred during that per
i
od. The
retentive alarm statuses of each channel can be cleared by t
h
e user through the display screens or through NXperience or NXperience Mobile.
For each enabled channel, it is possible to enable a minimu m alarm and a maximum alarm. For each alarm, it is possible to configure the following
parameters:
● Setpoint: Value t
o
be exceeded for the channel to satisfy the alarm situation.
● Hysteresis: Barrier to be exceeded for the channel to exi
t
the alarm situation.
After the alarms are enabled, they behave as follows:
● Maxi
m
u
m
Alar
m
: The channel enters the maximum alarm when the current value is greater than the maximum alarm setpoint and
e
xits the
maximum alarm when the current value is less than or eq
u
al to the maximum alarm setpoint minus the maximum alarm hysteresis.
● Mini
m
u
m
Alar
m
: The channel enters the minimum alarm when the current value is lower than the minimum alarm setpoint and exits the
minimum alarm w
