Hello everyone,

in Germany, the first provider will switch off 2G in the summer of 2028, Is it possible to connect an external 4G modem to a DT85GM to continue sending alarms via SMS? Has anyone tested this yet? Are there any recommended modems?

Kind regards

Marius

DT 85 runs fine for about two weeks and then gets the following errors and quits logging and pushing data. I also can't connect with DE transfer via port 7700. I can connect with Dex 2 and download the data manually but it quit logging once the errors accord. Here are the errors.

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

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

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.

hello.
I tried to configure my DT85 series 4 data taker using ethernet connection. After putting in IP address and port details it is still showing "device is offline" in dex 2.0 software. Also, data taker is showing "SW EXCEPTION" error. Upon checking in development tools it is showing “ERR_CONNECTION_RESET” error. Please help and explain in detail as I am using it for the first t

Hi.
I want to use the DT80 to write modbus data and send it to a modbus poll application. I have matched baud rate, data bits, stop bits, slave addresses, and registers. But I found the error "Modbus master - unexpected function id in response. Expected: 6; received: 3dataTaker 80 E130 - Modbus - unexpected function id in response".

Here is my script:

Configuring my DT85.
Have applied the first cut of all the Thermocouples that we will be logging. Applied it to the DT85 and away it goes.

Now I'm looking at using a calculation from a Thermocouple to engage a relay and turn on a cooling fan.

But I can't find any command line codes that will allow me to stop the DT85 collecting data and consuming battery power.

Is the a manual that

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 ?

I recently purchased a secondhand DT80 series4. The previous owner says it has had a factory reset. When I power up the unit it reloads the last current job. I have attempted to interact via dEX2 but can't get passed the username/password. I have tried to access via deTransfer but usb connection is refused. I have tried the reset button both single and triple. Suggestions on how to cancel current
