Tips and Tricks
Configuration
When configuring a USB recorder, allow enough time for the unit to
acclimatise to the target environment, particularly if you have
configured an upper alarm. This can be best achieved with a start
delay, or a date/time start if you know when the shipment takes
place.
Make sure you remove your UTRIX-16(M) from the USB socket when
you use a date/time start, so it starts at the time you want, rather
than when unplugged from the port.
During the trip
Always replace the USB protective cap before placing the UTRIX-16
(M) with the goods. While recording, make sure the UTRIX-16(M)'s
protective cap is facing down. The protection rating can only be
achieved when used in this orientation. For applications requiring a
higher IP rating the unit should be used in the protective case,
available as an accessory.
