Preparing LogTags for use
Before you can use a LogTag to monitor and record environmental conditions you must
first prepare it for use. The process of preparing a LogTag for use allows you to define a
number of parameters, including:
How long it should record the environmental condition for, so that you can be assured
that it will record for the duration of time required. For example, if you want it to
monitor a shipment that will take 10 days to deliver, you will be able to make sure it
will record the humidity and/or temperatures throughout the entire 10 day period.
How often it should record the environmental conditions.
Under what conditions it should display an alert. An alert indicates when the
environmental condition being recorded is not within set limits.
This chapter explains how to prepare a LogTag for use and what the options mean.
