5.2. Password
This password protection, if activated, prevent the connected logger to be configured.
To set a password protection on the connected logger:
 Click on the “Edit” button:

 Set the radio button: “SetPassword”

 Enter the new password twice, until the green check
indicating that the new password is set.

 The new password is now set. The logger can be

configured. This password will be written into the
logger.
 When this logger with a password is reconnected,
all the configuration controls are disabled including
the configure button. Until the right password is
entered.
 To remove the password protection, click the “Edit”
button and set the radio button: “No Password”,
then configure the logger.

zLogg Copyright© 2017 http://z-logg.com 12

 Configuration
5.3. Alarms
 Up to four alarm thresholds with smart delay management.
 Each alarm threshold has a consecutive and/or a total delay before alarm.
 The resolution of the alarms thresholds is 0.1°C in the whole range of the connected data logger
 Alarms can be enabled or disabled using the checkbox button. Therefore it is possible to
configure a data logger without any alarm, or with 1, 2, 3 or up to 4 alarms thresholds.
 The alarm thresholds are inclusive:
ex: High Alarm Temperature >= 7.5°C is out of specification.
ex: Low Alarm Temperature <= 3.5°C is out of specification.

 Configuration
5.4. Delay before alarm
The delay before alarm is the mechanism that triggers the alarm according to the pre-set sensor
value, the duration of “out of specification,” and the type of delay.

The consecutive alarm delay is a counter that tracks the duration between when the sensor value is
above or below the alarm threshold (above for high and very high alarm, and below for low and very
low). If the sensor value comes back to normal before it has reached the consecutive delay, this
counter is reset to zero. This consecutive alarm delay will trigger an alarm if this one is out of
specification for the set duration without going back to normal. If set to zero, this delay is disabled.

The total alarm delay is a counter that counts the duration of when the sensor value is above or
below the alarm threshold (above for high and very high alarm, and below for low and very low).
If the sensor value comes back to normal before it has reached the consecutive delay, this counter is
not reset to zero. It will maintain the out of specification duration and restart counting when the
sensor value will go again out of specification. This total alarm delay will trigger an alarm as soon as
the expired time of all added violations has reached the set duration. If set to zero, this delay is
disabled.

Example: High alarm threshold set to 7.5°C with a consecutive delay of 8 minutes and no total
alarm. The sampling rate is 1 minute. The alarm is triggered when the consecutive delay reaches 8
minutes. As we can see in this example, the counter is reset to zero twice when the temperature
goes below 7.5°C.

zLogg Copyright© 2017 http://z-logg.com 14

 Configuration
Example: High alarm threshold set to 7.5°C with a total delay of 10 minutes and no consecutive
delay. The sampling rate is 1 minute. The alarm is triggered when the total delay reaches 10
minutes. As we can see in this example, the counter stopped counting when the temperature goes
back below 7.5°C and continues when above 7.5°C.

zLogg Copyright© 2017 http://z-logg.com 15

 Configuration

Example: High alarm threshold set to 7.5°C with a consecutive delay of 6 minutes and
a total delay of 12 minutes. The sampling rate is 1 minute. In this scenario we have both, the
consecutive, and the total delay set respectively to 6 and 12 minutes. In that example, the alarm is
triggered when the consecutive delay reaches 6 minutes.

zLogg Copyright© 2017 http://z-logg.com 16

 Configuration
5.5. Start, Stop and Sampling rate
The sampling rate is the record period. The delay between when each record is stored in memory.
zLogg logger can start and stop in different ways:
 Manual start pressing the Start button; with or without delay.
 Automatic start at a preset date and time.
 Automatic start when a pre set temperature threshold is achieved with a consecutive delay.
 Automatic stop after a record duration
 Automatic stop at a desired time and date.
Manual and automatic start can be enabled at the same time. In this particular case the logger will
start automatically at the desired time and date, but user can override this by pressing the start
button manually.

Sampling rate: from 5 seconds to 24H

Manual Start + delay: enable/disable the manual start by pressing the start button
with/without delay up to 99 days. The delay is a period of time where the
logger is not yet recording, but waiting. This delay is commonly used
when the device is placed in a cooler and it needs a certain time to cool
down to the product’s temperature. This will avoid false alarms.
Auto Start Time: enable/disable the automatic start at a preset date and time.
Auto Stop Time: enable/disable the automatic stop at a preset date and time.
Auto Start Temp. + delay: enable/disable the automatic start with a temperature threshold
with/without consecutive delay.
Record Duration: enable/disable the stop after a total record duration. From 5 seconds to 1
year.
Max button: Automatically set the record duration to its maximum according to the
connected device’s memory capacity.

Maximum record duration with

the selected sampling rate

In this example, the logger will start manually by pressing the start button without any delay.
The sampling rate is 10 minutes and the logger will stop automatically after 100 days.

zLogg Copyright© 2017 http://z-logg.com 17

 Configuration

In this example, the logger will start automatically at 17H15 on June 28th 2018.
It can also be started manually by pressing the start button without any delay.
The sampling rate is 5 minutes and the logger will stop automatically at 17H15 on July 28, 2018.

In this example, the logger will start manually by pressing the start button with a delay of 30
minutes. The sampling rate is 5 minutes and the logger will stop automatically at 17H15 on June 28,
2018.

In this example, the logger will start manually by pressing the start button without any delay,
or will start automatically if the temperature is greater or equal to 55°C for 10 minutes consecutive.
The sampling rate is 5 minutes and the logger will stop automatically after 154 days, 15 hours and
55 minutes.

ZLG is zLogg’s proprietary file format, which contains:
 The data logger information such as type, serial, firmware version…
 The configuration menus including the start and stop conditions, alarms settings…
 All the records.
This file can be saved manually or automatically when the logger is connected.
The data can be accessed after multiple generations/uses of the logger. All data is maintained until
the maximum capacity is reached.
This allows the generation of reports without having the logger connected.

character as a separator.
Contains in columns:
 #: Record number starting from #1.

character for the column separation. This separator character in accessible from the
Settings/General. This is also the default separator if different in some countries.
Ex. Europe uses”;“semicolon while USA uses “,” comma

Contains in columns:
 #: Record number starting from #1.
 Elapsed: Elapsed time from the first record ddd HH:MM:SS
 ddd: days
 HH: hours
 MM: minutes
 SS: seconds
 Time: Records date and time based on the configuration’s time zone.
 Internal T.°C Sensor identification and temperature unit. (ex: Internal Temperature in degree Celsius).

How to adjust columns in Excel with the wrong separator:

 Double click on the CSV file to open this file in Excel.
 If the wrong separator is used, all columns will appear to be packed into the first column.
Select the first column and click on Text to Column in the DATA section.

manual), start delay, running or stopped state, various alarm levels and alarm states, minimum,
maximum, average and Mean Kinetic Temperature, etc — all by a simple click of the button.
Once plugged into the USB port, the logger works like a USB stick that holds the automatically
