Frequently Asked Questions

Sample Interval: The Sample Interval determines how frequently the data logger will save a reading. Using DicksonWare™ Software, the user can set a Sample Interval ranging from 10 seconds to 24 hours in 10 second increments. A temperature logger with data storage of 32,512 set at a 10 second Sample Interval will record for 3.75 days, while the same logger set at a 1 minute Sample Interval will record for 22.5 days.

Data Storage: Data Storage is the number of Sample Points a data logger can hold. You will find models that range from 7,680 samples to 32,512. A temperature logger with Data Storage of 32,512 and a sample interval set at 30 seconds would record for 11.25 days, while a temperature logger with Data Storage of 7,680 and the same sample interval would record for only 2.6 days.

Does it have to stay connected to a PC in order for it to work? No. Unless you’re viewing data in real-time you only connect the logger to a PC when you want to view / retrieve data.

What happens when all the storage space is taken up? Do I have to throw it away? After you have downloaded the data, you simply “clear” the logger and it is ready to log more data.

What happens if I leave it monitoring somewhere too long? The Data Loggers have two user selectable modes, Stop and Wrap. In Stop mode, they will quit logging data when the memory is full. In Wrap mode, the Logger will begin to overwrite the oldest data in its memory.

Where can I put them? Depending on the Dickson model, just about anywhere. We have waterproof units, stainless steel models, units with probes, and units that handle extreme temperatures. Our wide selection of instruments should fit about any application.

What is the biggest advantage of a Data Logger? Its data is “logged”, stored on a microchip inside the Data Logger. Data in electronic memory takes advantage of the power of a PC and software.

*Store the data as you would store any document on your PC.

*Retrieve archived data as easily as opening a file on your PC.

*Share the data as you would any PC file, email, copy and paste.

*Data can be imported into spreadsheet software and word processing documents.

*Easily import data from multiple data loggers onto a single graph.

How are they mounted? The smallest ones, about the size of a pager, can be wall-mounted with Velcro or simply set anywhere you need to monitor. The larger units have keyhole slots for wall mounting and can also stand on their own.
