Review VOLTCRAFT DL-240K

What it's for

Temperature meter and data logger in .pdf

What's in the box

Features


The instrument is supplied with a probe to be inserted respecting the polarities.

With the DL-240K in front, the + is to the left


It comes with software on CD, but can also act without software. 

To insert the supplied 3v battery (CR2450) press the central button on the instrument, hear the click of the release and pull out the clear part.


The battery must be inserted with the   +  upwards.



Plug the instrument into a USB port

From the menu that appears 

The 3 files

  • DL-240K.CL1
  • DL-240K.CSV
  • DL_240K.PDF

are only an example and can be deleted. They will be recreated when the DL-240K is inserted into a USB port after configuration.

CONFIGURATION

Click on  Configuration Website,html

The part that interests us is the one on the right

Select DL-240K in the top right menu and then select language

There are only 2 important pieces of information to be entered

  • ID of the data logger is the name, e.g. 0001 (must be 4 digits)
  • Sampling frequency. The instrument warns about the time the sampling will take to fill the memory.  When the memory is full, the recording stops and the .pdf with the data must be deleted after saving.

Click on Create Configuration and write a name

By clicking on Create Configuration, the tool creates a file in Download. 

Move the created file to the instrument directory, extract the DL-240K from the USB, which records temperature and writes data. Pull the DL-240K out of the USB and it will record temperature and write data.

When you want to see the recorded data, simply plug the DL-240K into a USB and after about ten seconds it reappears:

Click on .pdf


I personally do not use the software supplied on CD because it does not add anything important to the above.

Conclusions

Excellent instrument, but note that it only measures when it is outside the USB port, so it is only useful for external measurements. If it stays plugged into the USB port it does not measure.
