I have defined a job as follows:

Begin"10OCTO15"
profile startup run="10OCTO15"
end

I then did
runjob"10OCTO15"

The response was *10OCTO15
Showprog displayed:

I then entered

My expectation was that the DATATAKER would reset and reload 10OCTO15 as the current job.

I formatted a 4GB Kingston DataTraveler 100 thumb drive (USB 2.0) in a DT82E.

The Datataker read the USB for many minutes before returning front panel control.
prior to formatting it.
It took quite a while to format (no big surprise).
I then entered runjoboninsert"10OCTO15".
This worked and created the appropriate SNxxxxx directory with a job file in it.

I have a DT82E that will not respond to a hard reset by pushing the reset button or a safe mode reset using the same reset button. The display is not showing any text. The sample and Data lights are blinking at the apparent same time 3 or for times a second and the power light is blinking at about the same rate but out of sync with the others.

Hellou!

I having big problems when using Datataker to Loadcell measurements. Loadcell has been calibrated so, that when using 10 V excitation voltage the linear gauge factor is 99,453 kN/mV. Now we get numbers between 600-1000 mV and there are no scaling factor during measurement. Loadcell should give numbers between 0-2 mV, because the calibration area is that. What can be wrong? The loadcel

With DT80 G I have to measure time (let say in seconds) for which one digital input is in the status ON (how long it stays ON). Once when it goes OFF time has to be reset i.e. set to 0. It is not clear to me how to do this.

Hello all,
I have some(many) "error" with reading of Vibrating Wires (range 600-1200Hz). i put a Measurement Delay but nothing seems to work well.
With manual reader (GK404 or sisgeo type) no problem appears, the value is stable. I use a DT80G serie3 and the measurement is very degraded , (sometimes i can read the real value same with my manual reader, some other times i read about 2600Hz

welcome
we have DT85G recently, and we need to connect to it 3-wires LVDT of monitran company. we did several attempts of connection and all these gave an error reading.
the lvtd features are stroke 125mm , supply voltage =9 to 24 Volts Dc(regulated) and its connection details are RED for supply volts DC , Blue for 0 volts DC and green for output(0-5).
with my regards

Dear Sir,

we are having two nos. DT85GM to be configured with various sensors e.g. VW displacement sensor. VW pressure sensor and SDI12 Inclinometer.
only the SDI12 sensors are not communicating at all. always we are getting " not yet set" or no response from sensor in command window. we tried programming through
adding serial SDI12 sensor under schedule but same result. we tested the

hi,

i am trying to upload my logged data direct to a USB. upon inserting the USB drive the datataker displays "reading USB" but does not begin writing.

i have read in the manual that you must have a file on the USB called ONINSERT.DXC

i have not found any information on how to create this file or where to find it on the supplied disk.

any assistance would be appreciated as i ha

Hi,

We have recently purchased a DT82I for use with an industrial coater. The coater sends strings of real time parameters which are forwarded through a RS232 port to a dot matrix printer. I was hoping to use the datalogger to retain a digital copy on a usb and then send the print command to the dot matrix printer. Since both printer and coater communicate only over RS232 I was planning on co

Hi,

I'm running a program to read and record values from an PT-100 RTD and a MODBUS device. The problem is, the resistance value of the PT-100 isn't read properly by the dataTaker. If I run the PT-100 program alone, there is no issue about the reading. But once the MODBUS device is connected to the sensor port, and the program runs together, the resistance values of the PT-100 increases by m

Hi,

I'm using the DT82I for logging current and voltage values from a current monitoring device. I've used around 170 CV's to log and display the data, in addition to individual labels. The data has also been collected without any problem.

The problem is that the last 10-15Cv's seem to have no label/name. I'm running similar programs on 2 separate DT82I's, and both have the same problem.

Hi,

We've got a DT82I running 24/7 at a remote site. The program is meant to retain some CV's to be used as reference for the next day.

But, I've noticed that my DT82I sometimes doesn't seem to retain those values. Upon checking, we found that the DT82I displays the "DT80 restarted / Power loss" message every morning. But we have it running on an UPS, so I doubt power supply is an issue.

Hi,

I'm trying to do manual data downloads via a 2 GB USB stick. However, every time I insert the USB stick, the logger runs into SW Exception error.

I have the latest 9.20.8942 firmware with a DT82I Series 3. The error I'm getting is Reset 9.20.8942 EXCEPTION (c8610007).

Is there a way to fix this issue? I need to resolve this ASAP as I will be deploying these into the field shortly.

Hi, I am using datataker DT82I series 4. Previously, I was using deLogger but wanted to try out dEX.
I have connected the datataker to my computer via Ethernet cable and load dEX via on Mozilla Firefox (v61). When I create any schedule or add any calculations and try to type in the values, there is a lag. The characters appear on the screen 5-8 seconds later. It's so frustrating when I need to

Hi,
Does anyone have experience using JBUS with Datataker? I appreciate if you can share your experience. I read that JBUS is similar to MODBUS except for the adressing. I found it is NOT true. Any comments?

Recently we received 2 of the DataTaker loggers.
The one I am writing about is the DT82I.
My manager recently received a firmware update that allowed the ability to setup security for separate log in's.
He was try to configure the device and ran out of time so I took over.
During my interaction with this device I have had it lock up several times and quite honestly had to pull the bat
