Preguntas generales:

1. ¿Cómo desconecto mi registrador?

The logger stops recording when it is full (unless wrap around was selected in the launch screen), when the logger is downloaded to the computer, or if the battery is removed or drained.

If wrap around is selected logger will continue to record, overwriting the oldest points when it becomes full. The logger will continue to record until the launch mode is interrupted by a readout.

2. No puedo comunicar con mi registrador ¿Por qué? No puedo iniciar mi registrador ¿Por qué?

Remove the battery and place the battery back in the battery terminal. Watch the LED light, the moment the battery touches the battery terminal the LED will blink a few times rapidly. If the LED does not blink, the battery is dead. Replace the battery and relaunch or download your logger.

If your logger does not launch, and you have a PCMCIA network card as part of your computer, try removing the card and launching the logger again. At times, a PCMCIA card will interfere with the launch of the logger.

3. ¿Se pueden cambiar las baterías?

Unless you are using loggers in the Optic StowAway or TidbiT line, the battery is user replaceable. For directions on changing the battery please go to: How to change your logger's batteries, and select the model that you are using.

4. La batería de mi registrador se agotó mientras estaba en el campo. ¿He perdido todos mis datos?

Onset loggers store data in non-volatile EEPROM and the stored data will not be lost if their batteries die or are removed. If the battery is user replaceable, you should be able to retrieve the data after replacing their batteries.

If the battery is not user replaceable, contact the place of purchase for a return authorization number and request data back service. Charges will apply.

The data stored in Optic Shuttles and Palm handhelds with HandCar is stored in RAM. If either of these lose power, the stored data will be lost. The HOBO Shuttle has EEPROM memory, but using a HOBO Shuttle with low batteries can corrupt the data files and result in the data being irretrievable. If your HOBO Shuttle batteries died, you will need to replace them and then try offloading the data to a PC. It is important that you do not use any data-shuttle product with low batteries.

5. ¿Cada cuanto tiempo debo cambiar la batería de mi registrador?

Ver Tabla comparativa de los HOBO/StowAway. For critical application, we recommend replacing the battery in half the specified time.

6. ¿Donde se compran las baterías de mi registrador?

En tiendas de electrónica o a través de EIC.

The manufacturer, voltage and part number is listed on the battery.

The HOBO Pro loggers originally shipped with a SAFT 1/2 AA Lithium battery. We discovered that this battery builds up an internal resistance which gives a false low battery reading. This resistance can build if the logger is set to take readings at long sampling intervals. The battery will gradually increase its passivity and may reach a point where the voltage is not sufficient enough to record the next data point.

When purchasing a replacement battery for the HOBO Pro loggers, please make sure that you purchase a Tadiran 1/2 AA Lithium battery.

7. Mi registrador se ha mojado. ¿Qué debo hacer?

If the logger was exposed to salt water, remove the board from the case, remove the battery from the board and rinse the board under clean water. Dry the board completely using a hair dryer. If the logger was exposed to fresh water there is no need to rinse the board, you will just need to dry the logger completely. You may try inserting a new battery and downloading the data. If you are unable to access the data, contact the place of purchase for a return number. We may be able to retrieve the data for you.

If you are using a HOBO Pro Series logger, do not attempt to remove the board from the casing. If the logger was exposed to salt water, remove the back plate and the battery. If it appears that the inside of the logger got wet, rinse the board with fresh water and dry as well as you can. If the logger was exposed to fresh water, follow the above directions eliminating the fresh water rinse. Contact place of purchase for a repair number. The HOBO Pro boards cannot be removed from the case. Removing the board will mechanically damage components on the board.

Any sign of corrosion or tarnishing on the board most likely means damage to the board. Contact place of purchase for a repair number. Charges will incur and are dependent on the amount of damage.

8. ¿Cada cuánto tiempo precisan calibración y/o mantenimiento estos registradores?

Ver Comprobación de Calibración

All HOBO and StowAway loggers are manufactured using precision components. As long as the loggers are not damaged, or exposed to conditions outside of their operating environment, they should maintain their accuracy. The RH sensors however can drift over a period of time. You should test your loggers in a controlled environment on a yearly basis to make sure that they are running within the specifications that are outlined in the User’s Manual. To request factory testing, please contact place of purchase. Charges will incur.

9. ¿Puedo exponer a los registradores HOBO y StowAway a algún tipo de productos químicos?

This is dependent on the logger you are using and the chemical and/or concentration of the chemical that the logger is exposed to. Many chemicals will have an adverse effect on the loggers and/or the sensors that the loggers utilize. Contact your authorized sales representative with questions regarding specific chemical contact with the loggers. Generally, these loggers are intended for exposure to air, soil and water.

10. ¿Qué significa la marca CE en mi registrador?

The CE mark identifies the products as complying with relevant directives in the European Union (EU).

11. He iniciado las medidas en mi registrador. Al cabo de un rato he recuperado las medidas y sólo obtengo una medida o mi registrador se desconecta inmediatamente después de iniciar. ¿Por qué?

Many of the newer computers, primarily laptops have a power conservation feature which shuts the serial port off a few seconds after the last character is sent. If a HOBO or StowAway logger is still connected to the serial port when this happens, the logger will shut off.

This problem has been noted with (but is not necessarily limited to) Dell, HP and Gateway laptops running Windows 2000, Windows 98 SE or Windows ME. A few desktop PC’s have experienced this problem also.

Comprobar para ver si existe este problema.
Using BoxCar Pro, launch your logger from the computer that you are testing. If you are using a laptop, it may behave differently when running off battery versus running off the power plug; please test both. After launch, leave the logger attached to the PC interface cable and watch the LED to see if it remains blinking. When a logger is actively logging, the LED will blink faintly every 2 seconds. If the power management is causing a problem, the LED will stop blinking within 1 minute.

If you are using a HOBO Pro logger, the LED is located under the PC interface cable, and is not visible when the cable is plugged in. To test a HOBO Pro, launch the logger to take readings at 10 second intervals. Leave the logger attached to the interface cable for 1 minute. You can either remove the interface cable at this point and check the LED status, or download the datafile to see how many points were collected.If power management is causing a problem, you will only see 1 data point in the file.

Solución para la desconexión del puerto serie debido al pulso para conservación de consumo:
To correct this problem BoxCar Pro 4.0, 4.1, and 4.2.x customers should download the free BoxCar Pro 4.3 upgrade patch. Customers who have downloaded BoxCar Pro 4.2.10 are advised to download the BoxCar Pro 4.3 patch, as the earlier version contained a defect in its export function that caused exported data not to display fractional parts. Similarly, BoxCar 3.6 and 3.7.1 customers should download the free BoxCar 3.7.3 upgrade patch.

12. Interfaces: USB

¿Puedo usar los registradores Onset si tengo un interfaz USB en mi PC en vez de interfaz serie?
Onset offers a USB Serial Adapter which provides a simple way to connect HOBO and StowAway data loggers to available USB ports on your PC.

¿Funcionará el adaptador USB-a-serie que tengo con los registradores Onset?
The following USB to serial adapters for PCs have been tested to be compatible with Onset loggers and some versions of BoxCar software and HandCar software for Palm handhelds.
Note: G3 and G4 Power Mac users are unable to run BoxCar or BoxCar Pro due to the lack of a USB serial cable adapter that is compatible with Virtual PC.

*Descatalogados, pero funcionan.

¿Funcionará el adaptador USB-a-serie que tengo con el software de Onset distinto al BoxCar Pro 4.3?
The Onset USB Serial Adapter will also work with BoxCar Pro version 4.0, 4.1, and 4.2 but Onset recommends version 4.3 because that includes all the latest loggers and software enhancements, and the upgrade from version 4.0, 4.1, and 4.2 to version 4.3 is available as a free upgrade.

At this time, Onset has not fully tested the USB Serial Adapter with BoxCar 3.7 or the unwarranted BoxCar Pro for Mac, so neither of these are supported. There are known problems with BoxCar 3.7, because it does not support COM ports 5 and greater, which are often used by the USB Serial Adapter. Also note that G3 and G4 Power Macs are unable to run BoxCar or BoxCar Pro because the USB Serial Adapter is not compatible with Virtual PC.

¿Funcionará el adaptador USB que tengo con otros dispositivos que requieren un puerto serie en el PC?
Onset has not tested, nor does Onset support the USB Serial Adapter with non-Onset devices. However the Onset USB Serial Adapter is the Keyspan High Speed USB Serial Adapter (part # USA-19QW), and Keyspan supports many devices with this adapter. For information on devices that Keyspan supports, see keyspan.com

 

Registradores de Luz

1. ¿Puedo usar mi registrador de intensidad de luz como medidior de luz de bajo costo?

No! These light intensity loggers are designed to give you a general comparative idea of how much light there is in an area; sunlight v. shade, lights on/off, etc. If you are planning on recording specific lighting information or absolute values, these loggers will not give you accurate data.

2. ¿Puedo usar mi registrador de intensidad de Luz en exteriores?

The HOBO and the StowAway light intensity loggers can be used outdoors, if they are placed in a waterproof container with desiccant packs. If the container is curved or thicker in areas, it will deflect the light as it passes through, leading to skewed readings.

We do have customers that have created their own waterproof cases for the HOBO HLI and StowAway light loggers, using petri dishes. The logger is placed inside with desiccant packs, and the dish is sealed together with silicon. You must be absolutely positive that the container is completely sealed, or the desiccants will work against you, drawing moisture in. This application is not guaranteed by us.

Even protected, the H08-004-02 light intensity sensor is not very useful outdoors. This sensor records from 2 to 600 lumens per sq/ft. Full sunlight is 10,000 lumens per sq. ft.

3. ¿Cómo se relacionan los lumens/sq. ft. a los Lux y Foot-candles?

The two most popular scales for light measurement are Lux, which is the European measure, and Foot-candles which is the U.S. scale. Lux and Foot-candles are measure of illumination - the amount of light falling on an object per unit area. The difference is whether the light is measured in square meters or square feet:

1 lumens /sq. meter = 1 lux
1 lumens /sq. foot = 1 foot-candles

How can I convert between lux and Foot-candles?

To convert between lux and foot-candles the following factors can be used:

Lux =0.0929 * FC
FC= 10.76 * Lux

Most people use the approximation of 10 or 1/10 as the factor to convert between the two.

 

Familia H8: entradas de voltaje, canal externo

Any of the external channels in this family of loggers can accept a 0-2.5 volt DC input or 4-20 mA input.

1. Puedo usar los registradores H8, H6 y HOBO Temp en intemperie si están protegidos de la lluvia?

No. Condensation will form from morning dew, temperature swings, fog, mist and high relative humidity (RH). These families of loggers are designed for indoor applications where the RH does not go above 95%. Use the HOBO Pro Temp Series for outdoor or potentially wet applications.

2. ¿Puedo usar la Caja SubCase de Onset con mi registrador HOBO H8 que tiene sensores externos?

No. The Subcase is not designed to work with external leads. We do manufacture a new 4-channel external logger for outdoor use, part number: H08-008-04.

3. ¿Cual es la polaridad de la clavija 2.5 Stereo para entrada de voltaje?

Negro = Masa (0V)
Blanco = Entrada
Rojo = señal pulsada de +2,5 Vdc para alimentación de sensores, activa sólo durante las medidas. 2 mA max.

4. Inicié las medidas de mi registrador multicanal y obtengo una gráfica de voltios en vez de temperatura en el canal externo. ¿Porqué?

When launching multi-channel loggers you need to enable or disable the channels that you want to use. Additionally, you must select the appropriate sensor within the software. The external channel automatically defaults to voltage.

If you launched your H8 logger without choosing the correct external measurement, following is an unreleased application that has been made available on the internet in its current, untested form at the request of customers who wish to convert the external measurement in their datafile. There is no help file available with this program, but it does come with an installation program.

This program only works with the H8 family of loggers and will only convert the external channel readings from volt to temp, or visa versa. To use this program, after the install, simply drop the .dtf file that needs to be converted onto the program. The rest is self explanatory.

Click here to reach download page for the H8 File Converter.

5. Cuando entro en la pantalla launch con mi registrador H8 el campo de descripción está lleno de DDDDDD’s y los canales en el campo de Medida son incorrectos ¿Por qué?

If a H8 logger is disconnected immediately after selecting launch (or start), the information that is stored on the loggers header becomes corrupted. To correct the problem, simply relaunch the logger choosing the correct channels in the advance option screen and relaunch the logger. Allow the launch parameters to be sent to the logger before disconnecting.

6. Medidas de la Humedad Relativa del HOBO® H8 Mejoradas por medio del BoxCar 3.7.3 y BoxCar Pro 4.3

The accuracy of HOBO H8* relative humidity measurements is being improved. Recent quality assurance tests found certain H8 data loggers fell outside their ± 5% accuracy specification above 60% RH. The outcome of efforts to improve the accuracy of the H8’s RH measurements in environments with elevated humidity is a new humidity formula that has been implemented in BoxCar Pro 4.3 and BoxCar 3.7.3. These changes ensure all affected H8 loggers* satisfy the published RH accuracy specification in elevated humidity, and improve logger accuracy across the units’ RH operating range of 5° to 50°C.

The improved RH accuracy function resides within the new BoxCar 3.7.3 software and is available free to BoxCar customers via the web. An upgrade patch available on this website. The new software improves all RH data accuracy for all affected loggers, including older data files.

*Note: Affected H8 units include H08-003-02, H08-004-02, H08-007-02, H08-007-02-IS.

 

Registrador de 4 Canales externos

¿Puedo unir el voltaje del canal 1 a la tierra del canal 2?

No. The 4 inputs on the 4-channel external share a common ground. You cannot isolate any of the channels.

 

Registradores HOBO Pro

1. Puede sumergirse en agua la serie HOBO Pro?

No. The Pro series is weatherproof, not waterproof. The loggers can be left outdoors and rained on (please see RH note below) without a problem. You should place the loggers under a solar shield to record correct data. Direct sun will heat the logger up, giving you readings that are higher than ambient.

The RH sensor must be protected from direct rain and splashing. The sensor will read 100% RH, however, direct rain and/or splashing will saturate the sensor, giving you incorrect readings until the sensor dries out. When the sensor is saturated it will max out at 104%. The readings will return to normal after the sensor dries out.

When using the HOBO Pro Temp/RH, protect the logger so that direct moisture cannot hit the sensor, yet the air can still flow through to give correct readings. The RH sensor should be facing downward, so condensation cannot build on the sensor, causing saturation.

2. ¿Puedo pintar las cajas de los registradores de la serie HOBO Pro para camuflarlos?

The case of the HOBO Pro loggers is made out of a plastic that has a poor chemical resistance to Toluene, Xylene and Keytones, among others. These are common chemicals that are found in many paints.

Painting the cases with paints containing these chemicals breaks down the plastic. This may lead to the case leaking.

Latex paints can be used on the HOBO Pro loggers case. The properties in the Latex paint are similar to the properties of the case. If painting the HOBO PRO Temp/RH (H08-032-08), it is important not to paint the sensor.

If you have any questions regarding the chemical compatibility of the HOBO Pro or any of our loggers, please contact the distributor that you purchased the loggers from.

Registradores de Estado HOBO H6

1. ¿Cómo se instala el H06-003-02 motor on/off (campo AC), cuando el motor tiene rejillas de radiador o aletas?

If you can isolate one phase, or “leg” of power going to the engine, you should be able to pick up the AC field from that line. It is important that you mount the HOBO with the HOBO label facing the line.

2. ¿Cómo se instala el registrador H06-002-02 Light on/off logger?

This logger must be mounted with the sensor directly facing the light source, preferably inside the light fixture but not too close to the bulb. Be careful to avoid exposing the sensor to outside light sources that could cause false triggering. The sensitivity can be adjusted on the logger to reduce false triggers.

3. ¿Cómo se instala el registrador H06-004-02 Vibration on/off logger?

This logger is designed to be used where there is a definite vibration when the motor starts. The logger can be mounted any place where you can feel the vibration with your hand. Caution must be taking to avoid mounting the logger where it can sense vibrations from other sources. The adjustable sensitivity can be adjusted to reduce false triggerings.

4. ¿Cómo se instala el registrador H06-001-02, de Estado?

The CABLE-2.5-STEREO is included with the logger and can be used to connect to a passive contact closure, or dry relay switch. The logger also has an internal read switch that (when used with the included security magnets), can log the open and closing of doors, drawers, etc.

 

Registrador HOBO Event

1. ¿Cuál es el uso principal del registrador HOBO Event?

The H07-002-04 Event logger records the opening of a closed circuit, and used primarily for tipping rain collectors and industrial counting application. The event logger will record 8000 events.

2. Mi Pluviómetro tiene 4 hilos que salen de él. ¿Cómo lo conecto al registrador HOBO Event?

You will need to check the specifications on the tipping rain bucket. This may require calling the manufacturer for a wiring diagram. The Event logger’s black wire is ground and the white wire is input. The red wire is not needed. The logger is looking for a switch closure. Determine which wires are appropriate. With a switched closure, polarity is not relevant.

3. El archivo de datos muestra dos lecturas más que mi ensayo. ¿Por qué?

The first and last event on your data file is a stamp of the start and end time. For an accurate account of events, these two must be deducted from your totals.

4. Mi registrador de Eventos ha registrado más eventos que los que han ocurrido. ¿Por qué?

The voltage may bounce a little after the logger records an opening of a closed circuit. This may create a false event. To ensure that you do not record false data, we highly suggest that you use the Lockout after event function located in the Launch screen under Advanced Options. We recommend setting the lockout to one second to eliminate switch bounce. The lockout informs the logger to ignore events for a programmable period of time after an event is recorded. The lockout can be set anywhere from one second to nine hours.

 

Registradores HOBO/StowAway

1. Cual es la duración de la vida de las baterías TL-5186 si las tengo en el cajón?

As long as the batteries are stored in a cool, dry environment, the batteries have up to a ten year shelf life from manufacturing data that is stamped on the bottom of the battery. Ex: A0393 means 3/93 March of 1993. The letter is the lot code.

2. I just placed a new battery in my logger and it still will not connect. Why?

The TL-5186 lithium batteries builds up an internal passive resistance over a period of non-use. This will reduce the power available to the logger. Remove the battery from the logger and short the two battery prongs (by placing a small metal object over them), for about a half second. Place the battery back in the logger. If the logger is receiving power from the battery, the LED light will blink a few times rapidly upon contact. Attempt to launch the logger again.

If the LED light blinks and you are still unable to connect, contact place of purchase for further assistance.

 

Registradores Ópticos

1. My Optic/TidbiT logger fails to download to my Optic Shuttle. What can I do?

Rest assured, the Optic Shuttle will not relaunch a logger that it cannot download. Make sure that the logger and the shuttle are clean from any type of buildup, algae, dust. etc. Follow cleaning directions below. Verify that the shuttle, logger and coupler are aligned properly, and the magnet is still sitting in the small extension on the coupler.

Optic Shuttle and Optic Coupler and Optic StowAway Temp

If you are still unable to download to the shuttle, try to download the logger to the base station. Record any error message that you receive from BoxCar Pro or LogBook software. Contact place of purchase for repair number, specify that you need the data retrieved.

2. How do I clean my Optic/TidbiT logger?

Do not use any type of chemical on the Optic or TidbiT loggers! You can wash the logger with a mild soap and warm water solution. If the logger has a mineral or algae build-up that will not come clean, do not scrape it off! You can use either a plastic polish, such as Novice™, or you can clean the case with toothpaste and a soft cloth.

3. My Optic logger leaked, is there anyway to retrieve the data on board?

The data is stored on a non-volatile EEPROM. As long as the EEPROM is not damaged, we should be able to retrieve the data for you. Contact place of purchase for a return number and specify that you need the data retrieved.

Please include the following information on your deployment with the return of your logger:

Purchase date of logger.
Length of deployment.
Environment logger was deployed in.
Temperature extremes logger was exposed to.
Protective casing that was used and/or device that held the Optic in place.
Depth logger was deployed at.
Was the logger exposed to chemicals in deployment or cleaning?

4. I cannot connect to my Optic/TidbiT logger on my laptop. Why?

Some older style laptops do not have enough power running through their communication serial port to allow communication with the Optic line of loggers. We manufacture a Base Station with an additional 9v battery to fix this. Make sure that you are able to connect to other loggers on the laptop prior to purchasing the base station with additional battery. It could be a problem with your COM port settings in which case the Base station with 9v battery will not help.

5. Can the battery be replaced on my Optic/TidbiT logger?

The Optic and TidbiT XT loggers have a factory replaceable battery. The Tidbit Temp (Part #’s TBI32-05+37, TBI32-20+70, and WTB models), battery cannot be replaced. Contact place of purchase for a return number and pricing.

6. How can I protect my Optic/TidbiT logger while deployed?

Many of our customers place the Optic/TidbiT logger inside a piece of PVC piping (the inside of the pipe should be padded with foam), if the logger is going into a fast moving stream, or environment with a strong current. The ends of the pipe are screened off to allow water to flow through freely. This protects the logger from breaking if something crashes into it. Additionally, it gives you the ability to camouflage the pvc pipe to fit into the environment that the logger is going into.

If the logger will be going into an environment where the communication end might become fouled by marine growth or abraded by current borne abrasives the communication end should be protected. Using something such as the end of a balloon to cover the end of the logger will not harm the plastic case. We have had customers that wrapped tape around the logger to protect it. This is effective, however there could be chemical incompatibilities between the adhesive and the plastic case. Additionally this may leave a gummy residue that can interfere with the communication between the logger and shuttle/base station.

7. I seem to lose some of my loggers due to spring runoff or storms. Is there anyway to locate them using a metal detector?

Yes metal detectors will pick up the logger. Another precaution that you may take, prior to deploying your loggers, place a tag on the logger (aluminum dog tag), stating your name, business address and phone number. This way if the logger is found, there is an address to send to it to.

8. I have my Optic loggers deployed in a lake where we plan on electroshock fishing to tag the fish. Will this affect my loggers?

We have run into incidents in the past where customers have left the loggers in this situation and have not had a problem. On the other hand, we have also had customers whose loggers stopped recording. It is a gamble and strictly up to you. We do suggest that you pull the loggers up to err on the safe side. Or at least check them after to make sure that they are still recording.

9. I downloaded my Optic/TidbiT loggers to the Optic Shuttle. The transfer went fine in the field, however, the Shuttle will not transfer the data to the my computer. Why?

Check to make sure that the coupler is positioned correctly.

Optic Base Station and Optic Coupler and Optic Shuttle

Make sure that you are able to communicate with other loggers. Press the transfer button on the shuttle when it is not hooked up to the computer or a logger, if the LED lights on the shuttle blink (transfer and then fail), the shuttles battery is working fine and there is a communication problem between the shuttle and the computer.

If the LED light does not blink, then the battery on the shuttle died. Unfortunately, the data that is stored on the shuttle at this point is lost. The Optic shuttle stores the data on RAM, which ceases to store information if the power is removed.

The Optic Shuttle will not give an error message if it is downloading a damaged file from an Optic logger. It will store the corrupt file. When you attempt to transfer the data to your computer, you will receive an error message.

Contact place of purchase and request a return number, state that you need your data recovered form your Optic Shuttle. We will be able to retrieve the files that are stored, as long as the shuttle has not lost power. If there is a damaged file stored, the data from that particular logger may or may not be useful.

10. I receive a GPF fault when attempting to download the shuttle to the computer. Why?

BoxCar Pro 3.5 had a problem with the allocation of memory that only effects the downloading of the Optic Shuttle in Windows 95 and NT. BoxCar Pro 3.5 will display a General Protection Fault (GPF) after displaying the time synchronization and prior to the Save As dialog box appearing.

The loggers can be downloaded directly to the computer without a problem. Files stored on the shuttle when this GPF occurs will not be lost as long as additional files are not downloaded to the shuttle.

BoxCar 3.51 resolves this problem. You can
