USB Data Logging with 34972A Data Acquisition System

34972A: USB data logging
See three different methods to log data using USB and the 34972A. The first method is to use the 34972A with a direct connection to the PC. It is simple and straightforward to use the free data logging software to setup the instrument and log data. The second method is good for making remote measurements, storing the configuration, from the BenchLink Data Logger software and transferring it to the 34972A with a USB memory stick. All of the measurements will be time stamped and stored on the USB stick. The final method is to configure the 34972A from the front panel and attach a USB memory stick to capture the readings. The USB stick can be used to increase the number of non-volatile readings stored, and make it easy to transfer them to the PC.

Saving data to USB starts at 03:39

Be aware that at 5:13 when he selects the "Sto/Rcl" button, he has first selected the "Shift" button (not shown) and therefore it goes to the "interface" as shown in blue beneath the "Sto/Rcl" button.

Is this software compatible with your older 3458a multimeter? If not what PC data logging software do you recommend for the 3458A bench meter?

I need to conduct an experiment using the thermocouple. First of all, i am measuring fruit core temperature inside a refrigerated transport container (but will be stationary). When setting up the thermocouple, what temperature type is suitable for this measurement? I am quite unsure if to use Temp (Type C or T). Where can i find information on this particularly? Secondly, my experiment will last for at least 10 days, so i intend to do it remotely using the USB data logging method. I will set it up to measure at 10mins interval, any advice on the required size of USB i may be needing? I am scared of losing data as this is my second and last research experiment. Thank you in anticipation.

Hi, thank you for this video firstly... What type usb cable you connected as a first method??

[srijan.sikhar.dutta.]

not able to add the instrument, it is not showing

What´s the diference betwen connect the equipment with USB cable or LAN cable, because of at first to connection with LAN the PC did not register it. Can you send to us more videos with examples to measurement termocuples, thanks

can we use this instrument to acquire data from a PCB vibration accelerometer ( model : M353B15)? I would be grateful for your suggestion.

Is it possible to turn off the sounds (relay?) when scanning?
