- Press <Finish> after pairing successfully. Go to <Sensors> list-page, the connected Wi-Fi already discovered on the page.
Sensor > New > SSID/PWD > Next > rEG > Finish
DLV Quick Activation
- Step 1: Connect the XHLogger to PC, micro-USB plug of the USB cable into the PC USB port.
*Use only USB data file transfer cables to collect data for analysis - Step 2: The Sensor list will renew newly discoveried devices, click <View> of new items
- Step 3: Go to <Parameter> set your local time zone
- Step 4: Set <Log Interval>, the number must not be zero
- Step 5: Press <Save> after all settings applied
Error Code
An error symbol will appear when any error occurred
If you have any other tech problems, please contact us and provide the serial number on the sticker from the back of the device.
Battery Charge

Frequently Asked Tech Support Questions
After successfully paring DLV with XH12, do I need to keep DLV software open to stay connection
For normal usage, the XH12 will keep connection with DLV, also sending data back to DLV continuously. When the XH12 cannot find DLV, it will try to search DLV and the LED screen will display Er04, which will make battery draining fast. Even power saving mechanisms exist, it is recommended to keep the connection between DLV and XH12 all the time
During pairing processing, cannot find any XH12 device on the list?
Press the STOP button 5 times, and wait until “rSt” displayed on LED to clear paring setting on this device. Manually operate the pairing procedure again. Enter and make sure paring networking SSID and password correct. Before pairing again, check Wi-Fi and networking environment, whether the signal too weak on the location. Also avoid turning phone hotspot to replacing Wi-Fi, which cause networking connection unstable. Please note that it is required to run program under windows 10 OS or above.
Will the connection between DLV and XH12 failed after when the DHCP assigns a new IP address
Under normal network circumstances, DLV and XH12 use the same domain for connection. When IP address on the computer changed, DLV will still search and update the link automatically.
When the error code, Er05, is shown on XH12 LED
Er05 occurs when XH12 cannot connect to the paired Wi-Fi, so please check the network device firstly and then restart the DLV software and confirm that IP domain of DLV is the same as setting before.
How to reconnect the device with DLV software again
The device has been paired successfully before, yet if the device unexpected disconnection problems occur, the user can try to pair again to establish the connection between XH12 and DLV. Press the STOP button 5 times, and wait until “rSt” displayed on LED to clear paring setting on this device. Manually operate the pairing procedure again.
The DLV is activated and finished pairing but my XH12 cannot work properly
The first step to activate DLV is to click on the device name; go to Parameter firstly to reset Log Interval Time Zone. Set Log Interval not zero H M S and set current Time Zone. Save and Exit
How to change the DLV language interface
To change the DLV language, click on the device name and go to Settings on the top menu. On the General tab, change Language field and Exit the program. Launch the DLV again, the new language interface will start.
