Plug-and-Go Data-recording starts immediately the reset is complete and a
Transducer Interface (or Dual Interface Block) is attached to the
MemoryPaq.
Rising Temperature Data-recording starts when the temperature of any
probe rises to the specified value.
SmartPaq For instant quality assurance, click the button to enable or
disable SmartPaq, or to create or edit the pass/fail criteria (see below for
details). The current status (enabled/disabled) is shown.
Logger Temperature If a Transducer Interface is attached, its internal
temperature is shown, updated every 5 s.
3. After clicking OK, the logger is reset and a message box confirms the
sample interval and trigger mode you have set.
4. Disconnect the communications lead from the logger; the logger-status
LEDs flash red and green together to confirm logger reset. and the sample
interval shows on the logger’s display.
If a Transducer Interface (with or without Dual Interface Block) has been attached
to the MemoryPaq during reset, and if the trigger mode is plug-and-go, data-
recording then starts immediately (see below for important warnings about
thermocouple connection); after reset, the logger’s alphanumeric display briefly
shows ‘t1’ if one Transducer Interface is attached, ‘t2’ if two are attached.
Using SmartPaq
SmartPaq provides instant pass/fail quality assurance on removal of the system
from the oven. There are two simple stages:
1. As part of the reset procedure (p. 46), pre-program the logger with
your process’s pass/fail criteria (see below).
2. When a profile run is stopped (i.e. when the
MemoryPaq is disconnected from the
Transducer Interface or Dual Interface Block),
the logger calculates the result: snaking lights
show on the MemoryPaq’s display to indicate
calculation in progress, and then the logger’s
SmartPaq LED shows the outcome – green
for pass, red for fail.
