Amprobe software is not exactly cutting edge, but it will get the job done. 4 x AAA batteries per unit make me glad that we’re set up with rechargeable batteries already. Ideally we would have bought a 6 or 8 channel data logger that came with software that works on OSX, something like this. I have spoken with Picotech and while the software does not yet run on OSX, it will soon, so keep an eye on their website. It will already run in a Linux environment if you need it to
The way we have gone about it is rather inefficient, although there is a benefit in being able to compare the readings across all 3 units at the start of a data run to check accuracy
Our demo L1 is out on loan this week, but as soon as it comes back we’ll start running some tests
* ps – as you might expect we’ve performed temperature studies at the factory, but their instruments are not set up to record to computer so i’ve gone out and bought a set of equipment so we can run various scenarios without placing a burden on the manufacturer who is working hard to deliver a number of projects at present. The most expensive thing with this kind of work is simply the labour hours that it sucks up, so that is something we can do down here in London at our leisure and let the manufacturer get on with completing the open projects
