Hello all,

I would like to log data with the faster schedule. I saw on the forum that the faster is 25ms with some special parameters

_"If you have series 3 logger, 100 ms rate is not possible for 3 channels because the fastest rate would be 40 ms per 1 channel. But if you have series 4 logger, you can set 100 ms rate (fastest speed 25 ms/ channel).

Please note to get into the fastest

Hello all,

I am having issues configuring a DataTaker DT82E-4 data logger that connects to a Toshiba GF630 flow meter. The output signal of the flow meter is 4 mA - 20 mA (corresponding flow rate 0 - 650 GPM). The flow meter has three wires: red (positive), white (negative) and green (ground). For wiring configurations, I used C3 - Independent Current Input using Internal Shunt (Red positive

Hi all,

I need some help on updating the firmware for DT80.

First of all, my web browser didn't start the moment the logger is connected. The latest flash player was downloaded and didn't start.

Thus, I downloaded the pc based application and the logger can be detected.

I thought of updating the firmware hoping to solve the web browser issue.

Can I check how to update firmwar

Hi all, I am having an issue with the DT80 series (FW 9.22) in that I am using it as a host device for a number of remote DT80s and I am looking to add 5x more remote devices (2-300 new CVs to bring in) over the 2Modbus commands. The Release Notes (9.18) state that we now have access to 65535 channel variables now of which I now need ~1300 but am experiencing errors in applying this.

Hi, i was using this schedule
RA"US"(DATA:OV:1D)100T 1V(A) 1V(A) 2V(A) 2V(A)
i read in the manual that this 100T means it will trigger every 100ms, so i was expecting that i will get around 10 readings in a second. When i extracted the csv file i did not see more than 3 readings in the same second, so i am not sure this is accurate. Also i was expecting the time stamp to be more exact in t

Hi, i wqnted to copy some files onto the usb from a DT82I but it reads the usb too long. It is an empty one, and i am not sure what is happening.
I want to mention that i have a schedule running and i am not sure if that influences. I was doing the followong logon, then run the schedule, then logoff and then i was able tonread the usb faster, but when i copyed the job, there were no recordings

Hi, i need to use 4 analogs , and make a chart with data while these analogs are changing values.
So, i learned how to read these analog values instantly, but when trying to record them and put them in a chart i have lots of issues. Can you please give me some hint on what i need to code for the thing to work?
I have some errors i think of syntax but u tried different things and still not

Hi All,

Inherited a DT85 Series 3 that came hooked up to the rig I'm using (high temperature reactor). It has 4 n-type thermocouples plugged into it and I've run a number of tests so far without any issues.

I have no experience using this hardware so I haven't touched any of it.

Near the end of my last test I just lost signal all of a sudden.
Reading the screen said that I had a 'R

I try to write a script that will read the sensors on my Datataker DT85G but I run in to problems.
I try to use the command server and connect to the local ip and can see all the commands but when sending commands I get problem.

It works fine is I logg into the Datataker through the web interface. Then I can send commands and receive results. However, if I'm not logged in through the web

Hi all,

I have to use modbus function 0x03 to read values from a probe. But ist seems that the DT80 only supports 0x04. I was able to send the command manually via serial but when I try to read the answer which I can log in a terminal all CV variables stay empty. I tried %1b[CVx] and %1c[CVx] as well but no success. The exact command I used to read the values from serial port is 1SERIAL("%*3b

Hello to all, today i installed my series 1 DT80 in a industrial machine and i am very glad to say it works well.

The data is read-able from the internal network from any computer in the network. Special thanks to Rudy who helps me whith several problems.

I tried Delogger 5 (since dEX is not compatible whith series 1) but it does not work fine, also i need to install the program to each

My datataker DT80 is bought second hand so i do not know what powersupply is recommanded for it to power it from 230VAC.

The power adapter i use right now seems to have to low power sometimes so i want to order a new one (local) whith the right specs.

So could you please specify voltage , current and id possible the diameter of the correct connector inner diameter / outer diameter.

Hello all, i bought a secondhand DT80 and i woud like to gather the most recent software and firmware.

I read some about updating but most descriptions mention the series to be a breakpoint for having some updates possible or not. Seems series 2 and 3 are suitable to handle DEX, while series 1 are not.

So how to figure out what series i bought?

I have DT80 S/N 082272 , on the side p

Hi,

I have a DT85 with 1 CEM20 connected to channel 1. They are both collecting strain gauge data. I have the strain gauge wires going to the DT85 and CEM20 grounded via the grounding screw on the case of the DT85.

All the DT85 channels are looking good in terms of data and noise but the CEM20 ones are all showing the same noise levels. I do have a channel in each unit to compensate for n

Dear all,

I'm currently in the process of connecting a Solartron DC50 LVDT to a dataTaker DT80G for some linear displacement measurements.

Here's what I've found out so far, do correct me if I'm wrong about any of these information:

DT80G will only tolerate LVDT outputs of +/- 2.5 VDC?


The output of the excitation terminals on DT80G are +/- 4.5V?


When connecting LVDT to

We are new to Datatakers and are trying to get a SDI12 device to work on a new DT82E. The command SDI12SEND 4 "0!" (or any address or command) returns "no response".

An oscilloscope on 4D confirmed output, but the transitions were present for about 300 ms rather than the 20 or 30 ms needed to send the break and the two characters The data being output at the SDI12 port was...{ Break 0!0!0! )
