EASYSENSE Q3+ and Q5+ DO185 (2)
The speed at which a lithium-ion battery will age is governed by both its storage
temperature (preferably less than 40ºC) and state-of-charge. Eventually the battery pack
will no longer deliver the stored energy and will need to be replaced. A fully charged
battery that looses its charge quickly will demonstrate the need for replacement. When
this happens, contact Data Harvest and request a battery replacement pack for
EASYSENSE Q – Product No. 5007.
Auto switch off
If EASYSENSE Q is accepting power from either the USB port or a mains power
supply it will not operate auto switch off.
While battery powered EASYSENSE Q will auto switch off (go into low power sleep
mode) to reduce power consumption if more than two minutes (nine minutes with
Bluetooth ON) have passed since any measurements have been taken or a button was
pressed.
•
EASYSENSE Q will wake up either when any button is pressed or will auto-wake up
when communicating with the computer via the USB port.
• While remote recording on battery power EASYSENSE Q will stay awake until the
interval between readings reaches 5 seconds or greater – at this point it will begin to
use sleep mode between samples (waking up just in front of the sample time to allow
the sensors to stabilise).
• While in Timing mode EASYSENSE Q does not operate auto switch off and will stay
awake ready to take a measurement.
Internal Clock and Calender
EASYSENSE Q’s internal clock will be updated automatically by the computers clock
(date and time) each time it is connected to the computer and the EASYSENSE software
is run.
Note: If the date or time on a data set is not correct, check the date/time settings on your computer.
EASYSENSE Q 3+ or 5+’s memory
EASYSENSE Q’s memory space is divided into 8 ‘data slots’ and so can store eight
investigations that have been collected in standalone mode (when not connected to the
computer). Each slot is filled in turn. Once the 8
th
slot is used EASYSENSE Q will begin
to overwrite existing data starting at memory slot 1 (the earliest data set).
Language
EASYSENSE Q may have a language choice. If so, the options available will display
during a hard reset.
• Hold the red square and both blue triangle buttons down (at the same time) for a
second and then release.
► English
Cymraeg
• After the operating system number the screen will show
the language options (if any) before returning to the main
menu. The pointer will indicate the current language
selected.
