When connecting a thermo-
couple directly to the HiLog-
ger, should reference junction
c
o
mpensation be set to exter-
nal (EXT) or internal (INT)?
How is
accurac
y affected?
Select INT when connecting a ther-
mocouple (or compensating leads)
d
i
rectly to the HiLogger.
Overall measurement accuracy is
the sum
of the accuracies of the
thermocouple and the reference
junction compensation (RJC).
Example: When measuring a tem-
perature from -100C to 1,300C
w
i
th a K thermocouple
The measurement accuracy is
±1.5C, obtained by adding the ref-
erence junction compensation accu-
racy of
±0.5C to the temperature
measurement accuracy of
±1.0C.

How to display only CH1 to
CH3?
Select only the channels to be used
on the Input Channel Settings dis-
play. To acquire data without dis-
playing it, select
× as the waveform
display color.

I am measuring humidity with a
converter that converts 0 to
100% RH to 1 to 5 V. How can I
read humidity directly?
Set the scaling method to [2-pt], and
enter the values.
(1:1 conversion
0, 2:5 conversion
100, units: %RH)

Triggering
Question Remedial Action Reference page
Why does measurement not
start when "Wating for trigger"
is displayed?
Triggering is enabled. To start re-
cording immediately with the
START key, disable all trigger crite-
ria or the trigger function on the
[Trig
& Alm]
screen.
4.3, "Confirming Trig-
ger and Alarm Crite-
ria Settings (List)"
(p.75)
How to acquire data before a
trigger?
Enable pre-triggering to acquire
data before trigger events.

Pre-Trigger Record-
ing (Pre-Trig)" (p.72)
