Overview

***New Model for 2012***

The SpaceLogger.S10 is a versatile serial data logger for sampling RS232 data.

Data is stored on a removable memory card, enabling remote data logging without the need for direct connection to a PC. After logging, the memory card can be simply inserted in a card reader, to view and analyse the data on a PC; no special software is required.

Each data record is date and time-stamped when it is stored. A new file is generated for each day's data. The default file format is .CSV; other file extensions may be specified.

To configure the SpaceLogger.S10 for a wide range of devices with RS232 output, set up includes defining the start and end characters for each data sample, baud rate, sample rate, file name format, handling of un-printable characters, and the option to disable time-stamping and data sampling (to log all data).

The SpaceLogger.S10 may be set up to output RS232 data as it is input or as logged. This enables connection to a PC, display or other device. Also, the contents of a file on the SD card may be set to output on start-up; this file could contain a command to the sensor, for example.

The status of two switches to ground may also be added to each data record.

The unit records data to an SD or MMC card. These cards are available with up to 2GB capacity for long term data logging.

The SpaceLogger.S10 is ideal for field data acquisition due to its low power consumption and high capacity data storage.

SpaceLogger.S10 Configuration Settings

The SpaceLogger.S10 is configured for different devices using file SETUP.TXT.

File SETUP.TXT may contain the following commands:

• WAIT - Puts SpaceLogger in 'wait' mode for clock synchronisation
• TIME - Time at which clock will be synchronised
• DATE - Date at which clock will be synchronised
• STX - Defines the start character(s) of the data sample to be logged
• ETX - Defines the end character of the data sample to be logged
• BAUD - Sets baud rate for RS232 data input and output
• RATE - Sets the sample rate/logging interval
• FILE - Modifies file name and extension format
• TIMESTAMP - Switches date & time stamping on or off
• OUTPUT - Controls RS232 output of data to RS232 Output 1
• LOG_ALL - Disables sampling of data via STX and ETX commands so that all data is logged
• RAW - Controls modification of unprintable characters (those of value <10) to <SP> characters
• STARTUP - Controls output of file STARTUP.TXT content to RS232 Output 1
• SWITCH - Enables logging of status of switches on Digital I/O terminals
• RESET - Returns logger to default settings

 

Typical Applications

• Environmental sensors e.g. wind speed and direction, temperature, humidity, pressure, noise, pollution
• GPS and other NMEA devices
• Weighing balances and scales
• Measuring equipment and analysers including flow meters, mix & dose units and counters
