Please Note:

The logger cannot be restarted once the stop button has

been pushed.

The LEDs will double flash again after 4 seconds after a successful stop.
The LEDs will “freeze” to reflect the logger’s alert status at the time it
was stopped. If the logger is not stopped, the LEDs will continue to
reflect the current alert status until the logger’s battery runs out.

Interpreting LED Alert Indicators

The CCL100 LEDs provide a constant source of visual information as the
logger is recording data. The LEDs flash in four second sequences and
give a quick visual indication of whether a product remained within
temperature parameters:

- A flashing “OK” LED indicates the product remained within

acceptable temperature range throughout the duration of logging.

- Flashing amber “Over/Under” symbols indicate the product drifted

outside of acceptable range for the preset amount of time and the data
should be examined further via a data download.

Upper and lower temperature parameters are pre-programmed by
Vaisala. By default, each logger has a 30 minute delay once temperature
is out of range before the visual indicator is triggered. There is also an
initial 30 minute start delay or “cool down” period to allow loggers to get
down to product temperature and eliminate false alarms while
equilibrium occurs. Start delay periods do not appear in the graph and
are not considered in calculating trip temperature statistics. Note that
these default parameters can be customized via special order.

Note:

The Vaisala “data logger only” models (i.e. CCL100-TU55D-

VAI00) do not indicate alerts. In these models, a flashing green LED
indicates the logger is on and actively monitoring.

Downloading Logger Data

1. Allow data to accumulate in the logger.
2. Tear plastic logger pouch at score to reveal the USB insertion point. Make sure USB

connection point is clear of plastic but keep the remaining plastic pouch on the logger.

3. Insert the USB plug into USB port on a computer. Confirm blue USB LED is a solid

blue to indicate successful connection. If no blue LED light illuminates, flip the logger
over and re-insert. Many computers have their USB port reversed. The LED turns
solid blue to confirm connectivity.

4.

Wait up to 10 seconds.

An option to open a folder and view files will appear. If you

have autoplay disabled and it does not, manually browse to the folder from My
Computer or Windows Explorer. Open the folder.
