U-DT-1 Message Codes
Associated Products:
- Bad Hobo Battery – the shuttle cannot communicate with the U-Series logger, because the logger’s battery is dead.
- Comm Failure/Contact Lost/Button to Reset – the PC or logger was disconnected from the shuttle (or the logger slipped out of its base station/coupler) while the shuttle was communicating with it. To recover from this error, the shuttle may need to reset itself. Press any button.
- Hobo is Stopped – The U-Series logger was disconnected from the shuttle before it could be relaunched. If you intend to remove the logger without relaunching, no further action is necessary.
- Low Shut Battery – the shuttle’s main (AA alkaline) batteries are running low. The shuttle will still function, but you should replace these batteries soon.
- Low Shut Clk Bat – the shuttle’s clock backup battery (CR1225) is running low. The shuttle will still function as long as the main batteries have power, but if the clock backup battery runs down further, the shuttle’s clock may stop the next time you change the main batteries.
- Main Bat Too Low – the shuttle’s main (AA alkaline) batteries are too weak to communicate reliably. You must replace the batteries before you can continue working with the shuttle.
- No Shuttle Info – The connected U-Series logger is compatible with the shuttle, but cannot communicate with the shuttle until it has been launched with HOBOware 2.2 or greater.
- Not Enough Room – The shuttle’s memory is too full to accommodate the data from this logger. Use HOBOware to offload the shuttle, and then relaunch the shuttle to delete the data files.
- Optic Base Found – The shuttle detects a base station, but not a logger. The logger or coupler may not be aligned or seated properly, or the logger may have failed.
- Shuttle Requires PC/Host Relaunch – The shuttle’s clock stopped because both the main batteries and the clock backup battery were too low to keep it running. The shuttle cannot be used again in the field until you relaunch it. Ensure that the bad batteries have been replaced, then use HOBOware to offload the data and relaunch the shuttle.
- Unsupported Hobo – The connected device is an Onset logger, but the model is not supported by the U-Shuttle. If this is a new logger model, the U-Shuttle may simply need a firmware update. Refer to the Onset website for details:

- Bad Hobo Err 118 – The shuttle cannot process the logger’s data. Try to read out the logger directly with HOBOware, then relaunch the logger. If HOBOware cannot read out the logger, refer to the HOBOware User’s Guide for information about corrupted logger headers. If the error persists after you have relaunched the logger, make a note of the error number and contact Onset for support.
- System Error XXX – If you receive a System Error, turn off the shuttle and disconnect any devices. Then reconnect a device, check all connections, and power the shuttle on again. If the error persists, make a note of the error number and contact Onset for support.
