Device Operation

Connecting and Starting the data logger

  • Once the software is installed and running, plug the interface cable into the data logger.
  • Connect the USB end of the interface cable into an open USB port on the computer.
  • The device will appear in the Connected Devices list, highlight the desired data logger.
  •  For most applications, select “Custom Start” from the menu bar and choose the desired start method, reading rate and other parameters appropriate for the data logging application and click “Start”. (“Quick Start” applies the most recent custom start options, “Batch Start” is used for managing multiple loggers at once, “Real Time Start” stores the dataset as it records while connected to the logger.)
  •  The status of the device will change to “Running” or “Waiting to Start” depending upon your start method.
  •  Disconnect the data logger from the interface cable and place it in the environment to measure.

Note: The device will stop recording data when the end of memory is reached or the device is stopped. At this point the device cannot be restarted until it has been re-armed by the computer.

Downloading data from a data logger

  • Connect the logger to the interface cable.
  •  Highlight the data logger in the Connected Devices list. Click “Stop” on the menu bar.
  •  Once the data logger is stopped, with the logger highlighted, click “Download”. You will be prompted to name your report.
  •  Downloading will offload and save all the recorded data to the PC

Computer Interface

    *WARNING: Install driver before connecting a device using a USB for the first time. See the Software manual for further information.

Front Panel Overview

Changing the display units
The PR2000 comes with factory default display units of PSI for pressure and the real-time pressure graphing feature. These units can be easily changed by pressing the F3 button in the main screen and then selecting F1 for pressure or F2 for the pressure graph. After selecting the channel, the available units can be scrolled through by either pressing the channel’s function key repeatedly or using the UP and DOWN keys
Button pressing chain: Main Screen -> F3 -> F1 (pressure) or F2 (pressure graph) -> function key repeatedly or UP and DOWN

Checking the memory status
A status icon appears on all screens representing memory, but further information includ-ing percent memory left and number of readings taken can also be viewed. From the Main Screen press the F1 key to enter the Status screens then press F2 to view memory status information.
Button pressing chain: Main Screen -> F1 -> F2

Checking power status
A battery status and external power status (if available) icon appear on all screens, but per-cent battery power remaining and external power presence as well as battery type, current battery voltage, and current external voltage can also be viewed. From the Main Screen press F4 to view the Device Configuration Menu, F2 to access the power options, then F4 twice to view the Power Status screen, including battery power percent remaining and the presence of external power. Battery type and battery voltage are also displayed, as well as external power voltage (if connected).
Button pressing chain: Main Screen -> F4 -> F2 -> F4 -> F4

Changing the Contrast
The PR2000’s LCD screen contrast values can be changed in two ways. One method is outlined in the Function Reference Guide. A faster, simpler way involves simultaneously pressing the CANCEL and UP or DOWN button in any screen.
Button pressing chain: CANCEL + UP (to increase) or DOWN (to decrease)
