LOG-AQUA Autonomous Communicating Datalogger
User Manual
It is important that you read the Quick Start Guide in a controlled
environment prior to installation.
Set up, activate, and successfully test the entire system (LOG-AQUA, sensors,
and antenna connection) indoors, in a controlled environment, before going to
the field for installation

COMPONENTS
EXTERNAL ANTENNA CONNECTION
Connect the Cellular antenna to the antenna port.
The antenna does not appear in the remaining depictions in this guide, but it must remain connected after it is properly secured to the appropriate panel connectors.
Place the magnetic activator on the embossed logo on the front of the LOGAQUA enclosure. The data is transmitted and is visible in the user interface at home.aqualabo.fr (cf. Web Interface Guide).
PROTECTION DU LOGGER
After connecting sensors and antenna, place the LOG-AQUA protector above the connector ports and secure the Wavelet protector into the LOG-AQUA enclosure.
a. Insert the two lower clips into the two lower holes of the LOG-AQUA
enclosure.
b. Snap the upper clips into place in the two grooves above the panel
connector
CAUTION: The protector is provided to shield the connector from tampering
or over-exposure that could result in disconnected wiring.
If you need to remove the protector, grasp it at the protector arches and pull
it up. The protector will snap off.
LOG-AQUA ACTIVATION
The screen display should resemble the following:
|
---|---
If the LOG-AQUA transmits properly, then the test was successful.
You can now install the LOG-AQUA in the field and begin to collect and view
your data!| If data does not transmit properly, change the LOG-AQUA
installation location and activate it again. If the problem persists, contact
the collabo Team for help:

SPECIAL INSTALLATIONS LOCATIONS
WEAK SIGNAL LOCATIONS
If the LOG-AQUA is installed in an area with a weak cellular signal, activate
the LOG-AQUA using the magnetic activator.
You can log into the user interface using your credentials to validate that
the device is transmitting and sensor Wait for at least 15 minutes, then log
in to the user interface to confirm successful transmission.
UNDERGROUND/INDOOR
If the LOG-AQUA is installed in an area with a weak cellular signal, activate the LOG-AQUA and place in the intended installation location with closed doors/access hatch. Wait for at least 15 minutes, then log in to the user interface to confirm the updated location on the map. Before installation, initiate the GPS out by activating the LOG-AQUA (see step 3).
MONTAGE DU LOG-AQUA
Additional tools and/or materials might be required (not included)
Rotary hammer | Screwdriver with bit |
---|---|
LOG-AQUA MOUNTING
Secure the LOG-AQUA on a wall, pipe, or other secure mount location by using zip ties or screws.
ANTENNA MOUNTING
DOs
✓ Ensure the antenna connector is secured tightly to the panel connector.
✓ Mount antenna under the open sky or at least 50cm (20in.) beneath any
object.
✓ Mount antenna at least 5 to 10cm (2 to 4in.) away from the wall.
✓ Mount antenna at least 5cm (2in.) away from the LOG-AQUA.
✓ Finalize the antenna setup to the exact physical conditions. For example,
close the lid, close the door, etc.
✓ Make sure you have a signal and a successful data transmission via the user
interface
✓ If needed during installation, use the Transmit Now command with the
magnetic LOG-AQUA Activator to initiate more rapid transmissions.
DONTs
✓ Do not attach the antenna to the LOGAQUA.
✓ Do not wrap cables, zip ties, or other items around the antenna.
IMPORTANT NOTE :
There are a few- minutes of delay between a successful transmission and the
use of either of these methods for initiating data transmission. Repeating the
use of either method will not expedite data transmission.
WARNING :
If installing in a highly corrosive environment such as a sewer, apply
technical grease to the antenna and sensor field attachable connectors after
securing them to the panel connectors.
ANTENNA MOUNTING – TROUBLESHOOTING
If the Wavelet does not transmit, move the antenna to a different position.
If the Wavelet still does not transmit after multiple attempts at
repositioning the antenna, consider using an alternative solution, such as an
in-road or a high-gain antenna.
YOUR LOG-AQUA
IS SUCCESSFULLY INSTALLED!
