Hi
can you advise how i might program the DT800 to acheive the following.
i have 2 linear sensors connected to the logger measuring movement and i want the logger to control a ram which moves from 0 to 2mm. The control of the ram will be via digital out from the logger and i want the logger to operate the ram whereby the ram moves to 2mm then returns to 0 mm in a cycle which runs for 200 t

Hi. I'm having trouble communicating with my DT800 s1 via Ethernet.

I have managed to connect via serial and I've ran through the setup procedure but it does not appear as a network location.

I'm running DeTransfer on a spare PC we have which is running Win 7 Home premium, I'm wondering if its something to do with this ver of windows as its networking capabilities are limited or maybe its

dear Sir,

one of customers is using dt800 for resistance measurement.
recently we are facing the following problem;
measured resistance values are lower than actual e.g. 260 Ohm is measured while actual is 350 Ohm.
test command generated following:

To all.

I have a three wire pressure transducer.
When connected to the DT800 it courses a very very high pitch tone then the power supply trips out and the continues cycle in this state. I have disconnected it in case of damaging the DT800. Could anyone explain why it is doing this?

Many thanks.
James.

Good morning all.
I would like to ask, if it is possible to switch 5 solenoids on using the DT800.
I would want these solenoids to be started with a button on a mimic and run as:-

On for 1-20 seconds.
Off for the reaming time in a 20, 30 & 60 second periods.
Repeat for 10 -50 times.
This would be for an individual solenoid or multiples up to 5. If more than 1 solenoid was to be

Hi Rodger,
Could you just confirm that Delogger 5 & a DT800 are not compatible with windows 7 please? I found a post some time ago confirming this but can't find it now.
Many thanks.

Hi all,

First Question,

I would like to ask if there is a manual I could down load based on the program builder and not on text file programing. Converting what the text line is in the manual to the program builder is a bit tricky!!

Ok next question,
I have a pressure transducer sending back a voltage signal to my DT800, the span in set for the transducer output to be read in PSI

Hi guys,

I'm using i-checker devices like these:
http://www.aros-solar.com/es/sistemas-de-monitorizacion/ichecker/

These measure the current passing through a conductor but I need a device that takes the data stream.

Could I connect to Datataker Mider and the current through streamings?
Or if there is any other option to measure the current of the i-checker with Datataker DT 800

I just read through all my sensor and DT800 information. I am still confused as to the setup of the button sensor to the DeLogger software and what code I need, if any. Please help! The button sensor is DME and comes with the button sensor, and a button sensor cable that can be connected to the DT800 via the AUX input.

For those that are not aware, you can run your DT800 with DeLogger 5 on a windows 7 PC by running XP Mode in Windows Virtual PC.

These are all downloadable from the microsoft site:

I am repurposing several DT800's and my trials sofar indicate that they will be able to do a great job. But not everything is making sense to me.

To put things in context, I would like each logger to measure between 10 and 20 voltage signals, once per second, within the first 50 ms, and the loggers synchronized to within 10 ms of each other.

I'm experimentally studying the self-heating of a special type of resistors. Typically I'm using a DT800 to record differential DC voltages as a "V" channel between, for example, 1+ and 1- terminals, or 3+ and 3-, et cetera, in a simple resistor network. In my experiment I gradually reduce the power supply voltage driving the entire network, over time. Unfortunately my approach is fairly vulnerab

Dear Roger,

When my DT85GM upgraded firmware 9.08,why the connection of modem test failed in SIM access?

The connection of modem was normal before upgraded.

And when I use USB port to connecting to the web interface,some function can't working.

My DT85 is scanning data every 15s and logging the average of 4 readings every minute.
At 0758 on 5th May, after weeks of working satisfactorily, it missed a reading, and the following reading at 0759 was corrupt.
The Service log is attached.
How do I stop this happening again?

Hello Everybody,

I am using deX to configure to DT82EM.
My SIM PIN is " 0000". BUT When i type this pin to deX and save to logger, the deX only shows "0". So the configuration is wrong
I have change SIM PIN "0000" to " 1234" . The configuration is OK.
Could you tell me about this problem ?

Thank you very much
