Quick Start Guide

Overview

This Quick-start Guide presents an overview of the Touchscreen data logger, with setup and connection instructions to get your device up and running on Ethernet or Wi-Fi. You can then register the device in DicksonOne to view data online, configure alarms, and much more.

What's in the Box

Replaceable Sensor(s): Your sensor may differ and be in another package. These connect to the logger to measure environmental parameters.
AC Adapter: Powers the data logger.
Mounting Plate: Used for mounting the Touchscreen Data Logger to a wall.
