Description
LeveLine QuickDeploy Key
The QuickDeploy Key is a simple plug-in device which allows a pre-programmed logging scheme to be started at the exact instant of deployment. It also embeds a zero depth reference marker in the logged data in order to allow absolute depth measurement from the start and carries out an instant check on the battery and memory levels. The Leveline Logger should first be set up on a PC with the manual deployment options being set. If set for the scheduled start, the QuickDeploy Key will override the scheduled start.
QuickDeploy Key LED
LED Indication | Meaning |
---|---|
1 flash/second | Logger successfully deployed and logger is healthy. |
2 flashes/second | Logger successfully deployed but Logger battery has less than 10% capacity remaining. |
3 flashes/second | Logger successfully deployed but Logger memory has less than 10% capacity remaining. |
LED does not flash | Battery in QuickDeploy Key is dead. Replace the battery. |
These can also be found printed on the QuickDeploy Key itself.
Once the logger has been successfully started, the first data point will show as a Zero marker and allows the initial pressure to be recorded with a ‘Z’ in the logged data. This provides a start point where there is pre-existing data and allows sensor readings to be adjusted at this point and the sensor can now be lowered into position using the suspension cable and lowered into it logging position.
Reconnecting the QuickDeploy Key will embed a Zero marker and can be used to review the loggers battery and memory status. Where either is shown to be less than 10% remaining, it is advised to switch out units to ensure data is not lost
QuickDeploy Key Battery Replacement
The QuickDeploy Key contains an integral 12V alkaline battery (type 23A, MN21, MS21, A23 or VA23GA). If the LED on the QuickDeploy Key fails to flash when plugged into a Logger, replace the battery. This is accessed by unscrewing the blue plastic housing from the metal body of the Key and is self explanatory.
