Ten Must-Haves in Your Data Logging

Software

You have obtained the perfect data logging solution for your application, you have

reliable equipment in place and have started collecting data.

Now what?

Collecting the data is a critical step in in the process but having the tools at your fingertips to easily absorb and present that information cannot be underestimated. The MadgeTech Data Logger Software is a diverse and

powerful piece of the solution that is made to address the challenges that users face every day while monitoring temperature, humidity, pressure or other parameters with critical precision.

Data logger software that includes the following features and characteristics, will offer the most efficiency and simplify the data logging task:

1. Easy to navigate - Having large amounts of

data that is hard to sort through can be very difficult for users and slow the process down or increase the margin of error. The MadgeTech Data Logger Software is designed to be intuitive and offers a familiar interface style.

2. Export your data - The ability to export your

data for storage, merging, styling or sharing with colleagues is key. MadgeTech 4 allows data to be exported to a spreadsheet while also saving a copy to the internal file database of the software for future use.

3. Electronic or printed reports - We still live in a

paper world, and the need to print out data reports for inclusion within other reports is covered in MadgeTech 4, along with many options for formatting electronic versions as well.

4. Real Time data display - The ability to see the

data logger activity as it happens depends largely on the capability of the software. MadgeTech offers many data loggers with the ability stream data in real-time right to the screen of the host computer.

5. Combining data - Many applications require

collecting data from multiple data loggers. The MadgeTech Software allows users to take data from multiple loggers and easily combine them into a single report as needed.

6. Alerts and notifications - Most data collection

applications need to take place weather

someone is physically present or not. When there is a major anomaly, you may need to know about it as soon as it happens, not after the fact. MadgeTech data loggers and software offer user configurable options for audible, email, text or on-screen alerts whenever user defined thresholds are breached.

7. Units of measure - For efficiency and

presentation, users should be able to easily switch from displaying one unit of measurement to another.
