Other Highlights

Inputs for serial sensors

The M-Log COM-2 port can be connected to hot wire anemometers or to sensors with Modbus-RTU protocol output.

Sensors acquisition rate

Acquisition rate is programmable for each input (from 1 sec to 12 hours). M-Log manages 4 channels from analog inputs and 8 derived quantities in 1 sec. To limit energy consumption from sensors requiring power supply, it is possible to set an advanced power supply from the acquisition event (warm-up), that is interrupted immediately after the acquisition itself.

Data elaboration

The raw measured values can be stored directly as instantaneous values, or be stored as statistical processing (n. 1 base, form 1 sec to 12 hours);

• Average, minimum, maximum, standard deviation;
• Wind elaborations;
• Totals.

Derived and calculated quantities

Internal library of derived environmental quantities. These calculations use acquired quantities, constant values and other calculated quantities. The library also includes mathematical functions. M-Log manages up to 50 channels between acquired, derived and calculated quantities.

Data memory

Internal memory (8MB) allows to store data typically for several weeks. The registration structure is circular. In the model (ELO009) with MiniDIN inputs the data is stored in “surveys” with progressive numbering and data/time start/end.

Data communication

It is possible to transfer data to a PC via RS232, USB (with adapter included), or via Ethernet through an external converter. M-Log uses a proprietary binary protocol to transmit data using LSI LASTEM communication programs: 3DOM and CommNET.

Measurements

M-Log units can be connected to a wide range of sensors for environmental quantities, as:

• Air Temperature and Relative Humidity;
• Black globe Temperature;
• Wet Temperature;
• Surface and materials Temperatures;
• Air Speed;
• Light;
• Pollution (IAQ);
• Thermal Flow and Radiant Asymmetry.

LSI LASTEM supplies a wide range of compatible sensors, read the LSI LASTEM catalogs.

Derived Quantities

LSI LASTEM data loggers have an internal library of formulas for calculating a series of environmental quantities. These quantities are obtained from measured parameters, entered by the operator and other calculated quantities.
