UTBI-001 Complete System


Overview

The tiny TidbiT v2 has 12-bit resolution and a precision sensor for ±0.2 °C accuracy over a wide temperature range. The rugged TidbiT is waterproof to 300m (1000 ft). Data readout is available in less than 30 seconds via the Optic USB interface. For accurate temperature measurement in sunlight a solar radiation shield is required (RS1 Solar Radiation Shield, assembly required; M-RSA pre-assembled Solar Radiation Shield).

FAQs

I just bought a Data Logger. When I first plugged them into the USB port, a popup menu for Digital Signature concerning Microsoft asked if I wanted to continue: YES or NO. I said YES to all but one of them and now the computer won't recognize the logger. [show/hide]

Open HOBOWare, plug the logger back in, then click on Start->Settings->Control Panel->System. Click on Hardware->Device Manager and look for the logger listed under: Other Devices or Human Interface Devices — there could be a minus sign beside one of the categories or a yellow exclamation point through the device. The description listed should indicate if it is a HOBO or not. If it is not a HOBO, do not uninstall it, as it may be another USB device. Delete the "other device," then unplug the logger, wait 15 seconds and plug it back in.

Can the data be retrieved from a logger that is not communicating, or a logger that was accidentally re-launched prior to the data being downloaded? [show/hide]

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.

I launched my logger with "delayed start," but I noticed that logging began earlier than the time I entered. What happened? [show/hide]

There is a small bug in early versions of the HOBO Water Temp Pro loggers
that result in premature starting in some cases (when using the delayed-start feature).
With the affected loggers there is a 0.4% chance they will start up to 4.3 minutes early,
and a 0.4% chance they will start up to 18.2 hours early. If premature delayed-start occurs,
all measurements are taken at the correct sampling rate and stored with the actual times they were taken, but there will be extra readings at the beginning of the data file.
