DocumentDocumentTEMPERATURE DATA LOGGER (DL2B) USER MANUAL Features Data logger simultaneously displays minimum, maximum and current temperatures The unit will provide a visual and audio alert when temperature rises above or falls below the high and low set points. The min/max feature is designed to monitor and store the highest and lowest readings until the memory is cleared, or removal of battery. The temperature sensor is enclosed in a glycol-filled bottle, protecting it from rapid temperature changes when refrigerator/freezer door is opened. Low battery alert function ( battery symbol flashes) User can select oC or oF temperature display Measuring temperature range -45 ~ 120 oC ( or -49 ~ 248 oF) Operating conditions: -10 ~ 60 oC ( or -50 ~ 140 oF) and 20% to 90% non-condensing (relative humidity) Accuracy : ± 0.5 oC (-10 ~ 10 oC or 14 ~ 50 oF), in other range ± 1 oC ( or ± 2 oF) 1 User defined logging interval 6.5 ft (2 meters) NTC probe-connecting cable Rechargeable Li-ion battery to record data up to 8 hours during a power-failure event Powered by a 12VDC power adapter Compatible with a USB 3.0 Extension Cable for durability and easy data transfer Large LED lit LCD screen Dimensions137mm(L)×76mm(W)×40mm(D) Mounting hole dimension: 71.5mm(W) x 133mm(L) Felix Storch, Inc.

Power 2 supply port Temperature sensor port DL2B side view AccuCold, Div of Felix Storch, Inc. | R005-07102018 DL2B rear view To Use NOTE: Before use, remove and discard the clear plastic protective film from the screen (LCD). Place the temperature sensor (in glycol bottle) in the location to be monitored, such as inside a refrigerator or freezer. The data logger may be placed on top of unit with LCD display easily visible and the alarm audible. Data Logger displays internal temperature of unit being monitored, as well as maximum and minimum temperatures reached. The Data Logger's maximum and minimum readings reflect the highest and lowest temperatures since the unit was powered or since the MIN/MAX history was cleared. If the temperature measurement rises above or falls below the set temperature range, the alarm will sound. To silence the alarm, press any key ONCE. Clear MIN/MAX history once the unit is stable.

AccuCold, Div of Felix Storch, Inc. | R005-07102018 Programming the Data Logger (continued) Low Alarm Temperature Setting Alarm Hysteresis From the main display screen: Hold the SET key for 3 seconds. Enter the correct password then press the SET key 2x to enter the LO Temp Alarm setting mode. Use the up and down arrows to adjust the temperature accordingly. Press SET key ONCE to confirm the settings. Hysteresis is the tolerance band to prevent alarm chattering. For instance, if the high alarm temperature is set at 8 oC with a hysteresis of 1 oC, once the alarm is activated, it will not return to normal until the temperature goes below 7 oC. By default, the alarm hysteresis is set at 1 oC. To reset, follow instructions below. When the temperature is higher than (Low Alarm Temperature setting + Alarm Hysteresis) it will exit low temperature alarm. When the temperature is lower than (High Alarm Temperature setting Alarm Hysteresis), it will exit high temperature alarm. When an alarm condition occurs, HI-ALARM and LO-ALARM icons will appear on the display along with a beeping sound to alert user. The beeping sound will stay ON until the unit gets back in range. Press any key ONCE to stop the beeping sound. The high and low indicators will remain on display even when the unit gets back in range. Press for 3 seconds to clear the HI and LO alarm icons. *Note- The HI and LO alarm icons will only clear when the unit is back in range.* 5 Alarm Delay Start Delay Temperature Unit From the main display screen: Hold the SET key for 3 seconds. Enter the correct password then press the SET key 3x to enter the Alarm Hysteresis setting mode. Use the up and down arrows to adjust the temperature accordingly.

Delete all data history Press REC/STOP and DL keys simultaneously for 3 seconds to delete all data record 6 + history. DLT will display on the screen when the data is deleted successfully, and MEM capacity display will be empty. Delete max and min temperature history Press MIN/MAX key for 3 seconds to clear max and min temperature history. Clear will display on the screen if the data is deleted successfully. Copy the recorded data in CSV to USB Using USB 3.0 Extension Cable First step: Insert the USB Flash Drive. USB will display on the screen when the logger detects the flash drive. Second step: Press DL button for 3 seconds to download the data. CPL will display on the screen when the data is successfully transferred to the flash drive. Third Step: When CPL displays on the screen, the flash drive can be removed. *Always clear the MEM/Data logger's internal memory before taking new readings. Otherwise, it will take a long time to transfer large sets of data. * Connect the male end of the cable to the USB port then connect the flash drive to the female end of the cable. Male Female AccuCold, Div of Felix Storch, Inc. | R005-07102018 Please note: When the MEM is full, the unit overwrites old data If the temperature sensor is loose or not inserted, "NP" will be displayed and the NP alarm will be activated. When PAS is 0 there is no password. User can enter parameter setup directly. When the logging interval (LI) =0, the record interval is 10 seconds. To modify the factory settings: Press the SET key for 3 seconds to enter parameter setup state. After adjusting parameters, press SET key button again for 3 seconds. "COP" will be displayed. The modified and stored set temperature and parameters will be new default settings. To resume original factory settings, press DL and SET keys simultaneously for 3 seconds, "888" will display when the parameters are reset to factory settings. To resume customers default settings, press and keys simultaneously for 3 seconds, "888" will display when the parameters are reset to customers default settings.
