EL-USB-5 Counter, Event and Digital State Data Logger

The EL-USB-5 data loggers are suitable for measuring and storing up to 32,510 (EL-USB-5+ 1 million) events or state changes. The data logger features a pair of screw terminals for connection and the unit will accept input voltages up to 24V. Removing the protective cap with the screw terminals then allows the logger to simply plug into a USB port for configuration and downloading of the collected data. The included software allows the data to be graphed, printed and exported to other applications. The internal battery is a replaceable long-life Lithium battery, which can provide up to 1 years operation.

The EL-USB-5 data logger can record up to 32,510, and the EL-USB-5+ up to 1,000,000, events, state changes and count events. Fast logging rates allow event capturing at speeds of up to four times per second and state changes at speeds of up to two times per second. Event counting can operate at speeds of up to 100 times per second (when the LED’s are turned off). The user can easily set up the logging rate and start time, and download the stored data by plugging the data logger into a PC’s USB port and running the purpose designed software under Windows Vista, 7, 8 & 10. The data can then be graphed, printed and exported to other applications. The data logger is supplied complete with a long-life lithium battery. Correct functioning of the unit is indicated by a flashing red and green LED. The data logger features a pair of screw terminals and is supplied complete with a set of measurement leads terminating in crocodile clips.

EasyLog USB Software

The EasyLog USB control software is available as a free download from here. The software is easy to install and use, plus is compatible with 32-bit and 64-bit versions of Windows 7, 8 and 10. The software is used to set up the logger, alarms, download, graph and annotate data or export in Excel, PDF and jpeg formats. It is also possible to set the alarm to remain active, even if the reading has returned to normal, in which case the alarm LED will continue to flash red. This ‘Hold’ feature in the software ensures the user is notified that at some point an alarm level has been exceeded, without needing to download the data.

The software allows the following parameters to be configured:

  • Logger name
  • Logging rate (user selectable between 1 seconds and 12 hours)
  • High and low alarms
  • Immediate and delayed logging start
