4.2 Functions of LEDs
Alarm LED (Red): 3 states: OFF (no alarm), Flashing quickly (5s) (threshold exceeded), Flashing slowly (15s) (threshold exceeded during dataset).
Operating LED (Green): Flashes every 10 seconds during recording.
4.3 Functions of keys
OK key: Starts/stops dataset, changes scrolling group.
Selection key: Scrolls through values within a group.
Diagram Description: Tables and illustrations detail key operations for starting/stopping datasets, scrolling through measurements, and changing groups based on device state and key presses.
4.3.1 Groups organisation
The table below summarizes group organization and measured values:
| Group 1 | Group 2 | Group 3 | |

5 Maintenance
5.1 Replace the battery
The KISTOCK datalogger has an estimated 4-year battery life. The [Battery icon] appears when replacement is needed.
To replace the battery:
1. Unscrew the 4 screws on the back of the device.
2. Remove the back cover and old batteries.
3. Insert the new battery, observing polarity.
4. Replace the back cover and screw it.
Diagram Description: Illustrations show the steps for battery replacement: removing the back cover, accessing the battery compartment, and inserting a new battery.
Use only high-quality batteries to ensure the announced autonomy. The device must be reconfigured after battery replacement.
5.2 Device cleaning
Avoid aggressive solvents. Protect the device and probes from cleaning products containing formalin.
5.3 Safety lock wall mount with padlock
1. Mount the safety lock support in the desired location.
2. Position the KISTOCK datalogger on the support, starting with the lower part.
3. Clip the upper part of the datalogger onto the support.
4. Insert a padlock to secure the device.
Diagram Description: Illustrations show the steps for mounting the datalogger on the safety lock support and securing it with a padlock.
To remove the datalogger, reverse the procedure. The padlock can be replaced by a fail-safe seal. The datalogger can also be placed on a screw-mount without the safety lock function.
6 Calibration
A calibration certificate is available as an option. Yearly checking is recommended.

8 Troubleshooting
| Problem | Probable cause and possible solution |
|---|---|
| No value is displayed, only icons are present. | Display is configured to "OFF". Configure it to "ON" using KILOG software (see page 13). |
| "hi" or "lo" is displayed. | Measurement range exceeded or problem with the sensing element. |
| Display is completely off* and no communication with computer. | Battery needs replacement (see page 14). |
| Display indicates "- - - -" instead of measured value. | Probe is disconnected. Reconnect the probe to the datalogger. |
* For models with display.
Final Note: BE CAREFUL! Material damages can happen, so please apply the precautionary measures indicated.
