The type T thermocouples reads wrong in the DT. We confirmed the measurements all the way up to the connections on the DT 80 and they should be reading 110 to 120°F. The DT 80 though fluctuates between 49 and 84 F, with one reading a negative temperature. Other type K thermocouples connected to the DT 80 reads correct. No configuration changes were made since the time they last all worked. Th

Hi,

We recently purchased a DT80 Series 4. I've noticed that there is no connectivity between the ground terminals, including between digital grounds and analogue ground. When I enable the 12V output, I cannot see a voltage drop between the 12V output and digital grounds. However, I can see an 11.5V difference between the housing ground (the screw on the side of the DT80 housing with a ground

I have 3 E&H Promag400 flow meters that I want to connect to a single DT82I. All the inputs on the DT82I are exhausted so I am stuck with the high speed counter inputs 1C, 2C, 3C and 4C.

I have been reading through all the manuals to understand how I should wire up the flow meter frequency output terminals (24+ and 25-) to the DT82I. The flow meter output terminals are designated as pass

Hi, I I've just been given a DT85 for my work. Looks brand new but I think it is an older model. I cannot seem to connect to it. The IP address changes in accordance with whether I connect directly to the computer to to the network using an ethernet cable, but it stays stubbornly offline, and the console shows Error 404 as it tries to connect. I have opened Port 80 for inbound and outbound but st

Dear Sir,
In our facilities, we have several units of Datataker, namely DT80G-3 and DT85-3, used in structural health monitoring activities of bridges and other large structures.
One of the DT80G-3 suffered the effect of lightning (we deduce), and some components broke, which completely shut down the device.
We have already replaced the DC-DC converters U165 and U166 and the unit has sta

Hi All experts,

I collect data using all channels, 7 temperature sensors, 7 pressure sensors, 2 digital input, frequency etc.

When I open DEX2, I cannot view the data in real time including gauge pressure.

Is there a faster connection method instead of Ethernet cable?

Datataker stucks when I open the application.

I can download the data at the end of the day, but I want to

Hi all.
18 months ago I managed to set up a datataker DT85G so that it would measure voltages of up to 3 volts on 12 inputs at 1 minute intervals.
I have another logger to try to do the same thing to and cannot find my documentation.
It took me a week last time to trawl through the manual and work out what I had to do and it pains me to spend another week on this.

Hey folks

I am trying to connect DT80 to my computer and test whether I can read the registers for two thermocouple points that are connected via 485 connection.

On the serial port, I have 9-pin serial cable that I terminated to a RS485 to USB converter (https://www.amazon.ca/dp/B081NBCJRS). I use Pin no. 3 for A+, Pin no. 7 for B- and Pin no. 5 for G.

Hi,

I am running a job with 4 schedules, and while this job is running I would like to update one of the variable K-factor in one of the schedules.

CALC("Kfac~Kfac",=1011CV,LM)=20.104

How can I do it over telnet session while program is running?
I could set it and restart the program if it needs restarting.

Regards

But before that we had made it so it Only had the date and time (accidentally).

We programmed it and went to go eat, later (1-3 hours) we checked back on the DT80 and it REVERTED back to only having date and tim

I have dt80 and have a thermistor in channel 1. It was initially giving me values at the require sample time but they appeared to be too high. While trouble shooting this , the values returned became invalid with overrange message. Different channels were tried, same result. Tried to do a resistance measurement, same result. I short circuited the input channel block screws with some copper wire.

Hi,


We have some field instrument signals wired to Yokogawa DCS and want to push those values via Modbus to DT85 and then DT85 will upload on an FTP server to prevent DCS exposure to outside world from Cyber Security perspective. Is it something that is possible using DT85 as a Master?


In some other DT85 we have hardwired signals connected to DT85 and CEM20 modules, data logger is uploa

Hi Abdullah here
I'm using DT85 Version 9.22.9125
I created new schedules, and deleting previous ones. These are saved but when press apply to logger, it doesn't work, the data taker screen shows'' SW exception ''
I cleared all schedule, restarted DT85, and added 1 schedule with 1 channel only, but still it didn't work

Hi is there a way of having a mimic whereby you can input a value into a cv channel that can be used to change alarm values to avoid having to change values via the program config page as there is a number of alarms which makes it more difficult to config all in config section

Hi.

I have a dataTaker logger, I want to ask if it is possible to change the timestamp format on the dataTaker DT80/DT82E. default (yyyymmddThhmmss) becomes (yyyymmddhhmmss). is there any configuration that needs to be implemented?

Thanks.

Hello,
During a maintenance operation, our DT80 series 4 did not respond to commands sent through dEx2, even though the commands server was activated in the configuration (port = 7700, 600s timeout).

As you can see in the attached picture below, server commands connection is successful, but an error window appears when trying to send any command or random characters.
