HOBO/StowAway loggers shut off when the memory is full (unless wrap around is selected), or the data is downloaded to a computer.
Once the data is downloaded to the computer, the logger is in off mode and will need to be relaunched to continue data collection. If the
logger you are using is shuttle-compatible and you are downloading to a shuttle, the shuttle will automatically relaunch the logger using the previous settings.

There are two common reasons for data loss:

1. Relaunching a logger before the data has been saved
2. Technical problem with the logger itself.

The following section discusses data loss and its causes; it also discusses methods of retrieving lost data, and how to insure against data-loss problems.

If possible, remove the board from the case and the battery from the board. Dry the board completely using a hair dryer. If the board was exposed to salt water, rinse the board with fresh water and then dry the board. You may try inserting a new battery and downloading the data. If you are unable to access the data, or see any sign of corrosion or tarnishing on the board, contact the place of purchase for a return number. The data may be retrievable, and the logger may be repairable. Charges will apply and are dependent on the amount of damage.
