Hi dataTaker Users,
We will release a new dEX 2.0 version next week. This version has many fixes (check the software release notes and known issues), two new language sets (French and Chinese), and an integrated dEX user manual.
In this topic, I would like to share three technical notes related to dEX 2.0:

Hi
when I tried to add a new channel in my schedule, and then apply to logger, it didn’t get uploaded into my datalogger. Please advice as I cannot update the configuration.
thanks
Hello, I am trying to log the voltage current and power data from the m850 power meter via rs485 with a dt80 logger. I found some code examples and put the following code together. I have linked the manual with the modbus register list. Can any one say if this should work? Any Help most welcome

When running a job on our Data Taker the device gives the error "SW Exception". We are using the latest version of the firmware 9.22.9125
The event log contains the following message:
EVENT ,2023/08/15,00:49:01,0.139160,"Reset 9.22.9125 EXCEPTION (c8610007)"
And the error log contains the following message:

I have DT 80. I want to connect load cell having 4 wire and 6 wire.
The colour for 4 wire load cell = red, white, black, green
The colour for 6 wire load cell = red, purple, green, yellow, black, brown.
How to connect load cell with DT 80 series 4 datataker.
I have been using Delogger4 for the Dt615 and delogger5 for the DT80 series for a good 3-5 years now with no problems.
Running Windows 10. All was fine up to a week ago.
The program loads, a Warning that the site database cannot be opened. Then closes program after you press ok.
Delogger5 works as per normal.
How can I fix this issue.
I uninstalled both Delogger5 and DeLogger4
I am trying to calculate the measurement uncertainty of the system. I can't find any info in the manual. Does DT80 series 4 has any specified accuracy for thermocouple measurement or the internal cold junction compensation?

Hi,
I have a DT80 with 9.20 firmware that have lost it configuration at the 21/08/2023. The configuration waw installed since the 31/05/23 and running correctly until now.
Note : The DT80 was continuously running since the 25/07/2023 (4weeks), without electrical shutdown.
Here is the extract from the service.log

Hello,
I am trying to install the Linux version of DEX2.0 on a centOS distribution.
However i am unable to complete the installation because of missing library and other ressources. I think the methods i am using are incomplete.
Could you provide the steps and terminal commands to use for the installation and the execution of DEX2?
Thanks.
How fast can you read thermocouple data? The manual says it is a sum of: Measurement time, processing time, communications time and logger preparation time.
But it does not provided values for all of these.
So how fast can you log analogue data without accuracy issues or channel ghosting? Is there a formula?

Dear all
We have a DT800 since many years and we use it a few times for temperature measurings
Now, i have a new chalenge to build a weather station with some sensores the we have in the lab
The sensors are:
SP Lite2 Pyranometer; sensitivity 68 uV/W.m-2
Thies anemometer 0.5-40m/s, a T351-TR Thermistor, a very old pluviometer that I will calibrate it.
And some k thermocouples
Hi
Can you recommend suitable main battery replacements for:
A) DT80
B) DT85
I know the DT80 is 1.2aH and the DT85 is 4aH but not sure of the physical sizes (The loggers are offshore so unable to look!)
Many thanks

Hello, I was trying to add a new channel to the current job on my DT80, and when I hit download, it wiped the job completely off the device. Is there a way to recover the job? Or do I have to start all over again?

Hi
We have a DT51 we dusted off. The problem I have is that when you startup the logger there are some default scans, spans and switch settings, if I delete the scans and write new scan, when I restart the logger or cycle the power, the logger defaults back to the "built-in" scan and switches.
Is there a setting or switch where i can stop this from happening?
Thanks,
Paul
When running a test on one of our DT80s, it sometimes fails on Vos 3W II. What does that mean and is it repairable?
Is there a list available of the test line items and what they represent?
VEXT 13.4 V
VBAT (6V) 6.50 V PASS
IBAT +4 mA PASS
VSYS 7.05 V PASS
VLITH (3.6V) 3.63 V PASS
VDD (3.3V)
Hi I have a DataTaker 605 Series 3 and I do not have the software CD is there somewhere online this can be found? it says in the manual the software is provided free with each unit.
Any help would be wonderful.

Hi fellow users,
How can I execute an exponential function in a calculation dEX-2 / DT85?
Thanks in advance.
Regards,
Ferdi.
I have a DT80 connected to a CEM20 (id#2). The CEM20 has one 4 wire RTD and six 3-wire RTDs connected to it, reading in at about 1Hz.
They are Pt385 RTDs with 100 ohm resistance at 0C. I'm using the II parameter to excite at 2.5mA and, for the moment I am just trying to read ambient temperatures.
The 3 wire RTDs all read between 16 and 17C while the 4 wire reads 22C, when they should al
Just setting up a DT85 to read a Type K thermocouple.
The DT85 has been updated to v9.22 and I can see the relevant data via Dex-2 software.
However when I try to set up a guage in Dex-2 for the thermocouple, I'm unable to select the channel in the software.
What am I missing??
thanks

Hello,
We have multiple DT80M datalogger over the country and for some reason, they many of them have started to lost the SIM pin code. This affects only for this settings, all others ones are fine. It happens randomly, between month or like once in a year. After entering the SIM Pin again, everythings works like excepted. This phenomen was not going on a couple of years ago with these logger
Hi, I have a project where I have 2 DT80GW units and I wish to connect the two together, one of which I want to send off data via a Email. I wish to use the integrated WiFi to connect the two together and then thinking of using a 4-G modem to send off data and alarms? Is it possible to link the units together this way?

Hello,
The integrated DT80 in our system has lost its configuration (no current job).
It seems thats the DT80 have run out of memory space, and is unable to load the configurated jobs at start up. As descibded in its logs with the error E116 :
EVENT ,2023/04/21,00:39:25,0.003906,"Reset 9.22.9125 POWERUP/BUTTON (c0a00005)"

Hello, I am new to the DT82em so please forgive my ignorance. I have been asked by my company who own the Datataker to wipe the memory and create a new schedule. The issue is the last person has password protected the unit and we need to wipe the device. WE want to lose the data and software. The version number is a 9.22.
Thank you
Hi, We're using DT85G Series 4 for monitoring settlement and strain gauge readings.
I was wondering if anyone here can help me monitor the data using microsoft excel (Data connections). For now, we are more inclined in using Delogger5 as it is easier to program than Dex.
For now we are monitoring the data using the Txt window in Delogger5 but we prefer to do it Microsoft excel for data
Hello,
I hope you are well.
I have a DT85 series 4 datalogger and I want to measure the torque + rotation speed + power from my torque sensor, which has a 12 pin connector (picture attached). I have also attached the manual for the torque meter (DRBK from applied measurements). I have also attached the datalogger manual.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks!

Hello,
I work in information security in a university. One of our students wants to install dEx 2.0 v2.1.25. We have a hard time finding information to validate the safety of your software. Do you have an EULA and a privacy policy ? In what country are you located. Do you update you software as soon as a vulnerability is found ? Is there a way to have automatic updates configured ?

DT85M failed to communicate via SIM with message: "Modem will retry [SIM problem]".
SIM was removed and reinserted and slide catch engaged and checked that was fully engaged.
SIM had been working for a number of years without problem then the issue started a couple of weeks ago when emails containing data ceased.
