Data logger

The internal memory of the device can save up to 1,800 values. (Each item selected in M50 is
considered a value). To set or start the logger, do the following:
(1) Via window M51, you can set the start time, the saving interval and the run time. This
means that measurements can be taken for a maximum of 24 hours.
(2) Window M52 is used to determine where data are saved. According to the standard
setting, the data are saved to the device. You can also transfer the data directly to the RS-
232 / USB interface without saving them to the internal memory.
(3) Via window M50, you can set the logger and select the values you would like to save.
You can view the saved data via window M53.
You can read out the saved data from the buffer via the RS-232 / USB interface and delete the
internal memory using the functions in window M52.
To transfer data to a computer, you will need the software PCE-TDS-SW.

Calibration

There is a (calibration) factor between the real flow velocity and the flow velocity displayed by the
device. This calibration factor can be determined by carrying out a calibration. However, you will
need flow calibration equipment to do so.
Please send the device to PCE Instruments for calibration. Our contact details can be found at the
end of this manual.
