Intelligent Data Logging Products

The Smarter Solution

The dataTaker DT85 smart data logger provides an extensive array of features that allow

it to be used across a wide variety of applications. The DT85 is a robust, stand alone,

low power data logger featuring USB memory stick support, 18 bit resolution, extensive

communications capabilities and built-in display.

The dataTaker DT85’s Dual Channel concept allows up to 32 isolated or 48 common

referenced analog inputs to be used in many combinations. With support for multiple SDI-

12 sensor networks, Modbus for SCADA systems, FTP and Web interface, 12V regulated

output to power sensors, the DT85 is a totally self contained solution.

Versatile Measurement

Connect an array of sensors through the versatile analog and digital channels, high-speed

counter inputs, phase encoder inputs and programmable serial sensor channels.

Temperature, voltage, current, 4-20mA loops, resistance, bridges, strain gauges,

frequency, digital, serial and calculated measurements can all be scaled, logged and

returned in engineering units or within statistical reporting.

Set up sampling, logging, alarm and control tasks to suit your own requirements while

interfaces for smart sensors, GPS and other intelligent devices expand the DT85 ﬂexibility.

Superior Data Storage & Communications

With the standard unit able to store up to 10 million data points (expandable) you can log

as much or as little as you need. Overwrite or stop logging once allocated memory is full,

archive data on alarm event, copy to USB memory or transfer via FTP/ Email, the choice is

yours.

Communications features include RS232, USB and Ethernet, connect to the DT85 locally,

remotely through a modem or over the Internet. The web interface allows users to conﬁgure

the DT85, access logged data and see current measurements as mimics or in a list using a

web browser.

FTP/ Email provides data to your ofﬁce over the internet or wireless network, without the

need for polling or speciﬁc host software.
