FAQ#121 – Why can’t I connect the WR-log node to my mobile phone/tablet?
Make sure ALL the following steps are verified: Sisgeo successfully uses the mobile phone model “BLACKVIEW BV4900 PRO” for all its tests with WR-Log system
FAQ#116 – How do I configure a WR-Log digital node to read RS485 Sisgeo TIMED sensors?
Sisgeo digital instruments can operate in two powering modes: TIMED or ALWAYS-ON (for more information see F.A.Q.#094).A string of mixed instruments consisting of TIMED gauges and ALWAYS-ON gauges cannot work.The first thing to do is therefore to check that ALL connected instruments in your array are set to TIMED mode.You can check the powering mode […]
FAQ#115 – What is the best power supply for the OMNIAlog logger used to manage the FLX-Rail system?
The OMNIAlog logger for FLX-Rail has a fairly high power consumption due to the router.If OMNIAlog is set to send data through the router after each acquisition (so every 5 minutes) it needs to be powered from the network (e.g. 220Vac)If OMNIAlog is set to send data through the router once a day, it can […]
FAQ#111 – Why I cannot read correctly my 4-20mA current loop gauge?
It could be a problem connected to the power supply given by the readout or logger. When the power supply is in the current loop (2-wire gauge) it is necessary to consider the effect of voltage drop across the shunt resistor on the voltage applied to the gauge. For example, suppose a 4-20mA gauge requires […]
