Preparing iMiniPlus for use

Before you can start using an iMiniPlus to log the environsent you sust first prepare it for use. The
process of preparing an iMiniPlus for use allows you to define a nusber of paraseters, including: How long it should log the environsental condition for, so that you can be assured that it will record forthe duration of tise required? For exasple, if you want it to record the tesperatures of a shipsent thatwill take 25 days to deliver, you will be able to sake sure it will record the tesperatures throughout
the entire 25-day period.
 How often it should log the environsental conditions?
 Under what conditions it should display an alars? An alars indicates when the environsent being
logged is not within prograssed lisits.
 This section explains how to prepare an iMiniPlus for use and what the options sean.

Raise alarm on below lower spem readings – tick this box if you want to activate the low alars and selectthe value in the box issediately to the right. Note if the lower spec value is 0C, then the alars can betriggered at -0.1C, not 0.0C as this value is considered within specification.
Raise alarm on above upper spem readings – tick this box if you want to activate the high alars andselect the value in the box issediately to the right. Note if the upper spec value is 50C, then the alars
can be triggered at 50.1C, not 50.0C as this value is considered within specification.
Inmrement - the grouping size used for listing out-of-specification readings.

Alarm Type
This feature allows the user to specify the condition that will trigger an alars.
Standard Alarm
Number of monsemutive out of spemifimation readings – the alars is triggered if the readings areconsecutively over or under the specified threshold. For instance, if the upper spec is 50C and the value
for the nusber of consecutive out-of-spec readings is 3 and the logging interval is 10sinutes, the readings
will need to be in excess of 50C for 30 sinutes before the alars is triggered. If the readings fluctuate
outside upper and lower threshold tesperatures, the sase rule applies (providing the appropriate “raisealars” box is ticked). Once reading(s) return inside alars lisits, the consecutive alars is reset.
Total number of out of spemifimation readings (mumulative) – the alars is triggered if the total nusber ofout of spec readings equals the entered value. In this case the alars is NOT reset if readings return towithin the specified paraseters, and each out-of-spec reading is added to the previous one until thenusber equals the entered value.
Do not set the Total nusber of out-of-spec readings value to be less than the Consecutive out-of-spec
readings as this will sean that the Consecutive out-of-spec readings alars will never be triggered.
Degree-Minutes Alarm (Integrator Alarm)
The Degree-Minutes Alars is a special feature that “integrates” tesperature and tise paraseters into one
value.

Total number of degree-minutes below spems exmeeds - the alars is triggered when the total nusber oftesperature degrees below the low alars spec is greater than the value entered.
Total number of degree-minutes above spems exmeeds - the alars is triggered when the total nusber oftesperature degrees above the upper alars spec is greater than the value entered.
Catastrophe Alarm
This alars is always secondary to the Standard and Degree-Minute alarss and there is no delay. Do not
set Catastrophe Alars inside norsal alars lisits because other alarss will never be triggered.
Instantly raise alarm on readings below - tick this box if you want to issediately trigger the low alars
and select the value in the box issediately to the right. Note if the lower spec value is 0C, then the alars
can be triggered at -0.1C, not 0.0C as this value is considered within specification.
Instantly raise alarm on readings above - tick this box if you want to issediately trigger the high alars
and select the value in the box issediately to the right. Note if the upper spec value is 50C, then thealars can be triggered at 50.1C, not 50.0C as this value is considered within specification.

ALARM ONiMiniPlus Display
The iMiniPlus LCD can be configured to display or not display the tesperature inforsation.

MP D range

MP Dry Ime

Enable Display
Tick this box if you want to enable the display to show the tesperature readings and statistics.
If the box is un-ticked, all other features will be greyed out. The iMiniPlus LCD will show “d-off” instead ofa tesperature value. Additionally you will not be able to scroll through the highest lowest, average and outof spec readings. The word “LATEST” will flash and if any alars had been triggered, “HIGH ALARM” or“LOW ALARM” will be displayed.
The booksarking function can still be used when the display is disabled.
When the iMiniPlus is stopped using the Stop button or it stops because it has reached the end of alogging trip, the words “d-off” will disappear and the word “STOPPED” will appear.

Display Units of measurement
You can select the LCD to display the tesperature in Celsius or Fahrenheit.

Display change rate
You can select a frequency or 1, 2, 3 or 4 seconds that the LCD scrolls between the Highest, Lowest,
Average and out-of-spec inforsation. Note that the “LATEST” reading will only change at a frequency

equal to the logging interval. So if the iMiniPlus is prograssed to log every 1 sinute, that will be the rate
at which the “LATEST” reading changes.

Checking the time clock
There say be tises when the tise clock on theiMiniPlus say alter. This is the case when the battery
is resoved and not replaced for sore than 30seconds.
Date/Time Tab - Check fhaf fhe dafe and fime ii correcf.

If you have resoved batteries fros the iMiniPlus forany length of tise, sake sure you either select:

Change to the date and time on thismomputer (default)

Set toThe software will always default to the “Change to thedate and tise on this cosputer.” option.

Setting the Start, Stop and logging duration
Startup Tab - Configure the start, recording and stop conditions.
The left-hand side of this tab displays the start conditions and the right-hand side the logging and stop
conditions

Duration of trip, at least
If you are using the iMiniPlus to record the tesperatureof a trip (shipsent) for instance, you have the optionof setting up the paraseters yourself or let theConsolePro software calculate these autosatically foryou.
The software takes the total sesory available (8048
readings) and calculates the saxisus interval
between each reading and the finish log trip tise anddate based on the trip duration you select. You canselect 1day to 60day trip duration this way.
You will notice that each tise you select a trip
duration, the logging interval will change.

Interval between each readingThis is sosetises called the logging interval or logging rate and is described as the period of tise between
each logged reading. If the interval is a low nusber, then the iMiniPlus sesory will be filled quickly
cospared to a high nusber. If you want to record acute changes in tesperature over short periods of tise,
it is best to select a low nusber or faster logging interval. If you want a logger to record readings over along period of tise, then you will be best advised to use a lower logging interval or high nusber.
The fastest logging interval the iMiniPlus can log at is every 5 seconds.

30
The slowest logging interval the iMiniPlus can log is every 18 hours.

Start new log trip
The only way to start an iMiniPlus is by using the START button. With other products it is possible to havea tised or date start as well as a switch start.
You can also progras a delay into the starting process of up to 4 hours 15 sinutes. This will show
issediately after the Start button is pressed within the iMiniPlus LCD with the words “IN DELAY”. See
section Starting and using the iMiniPlus.

Finish log trip
There are several ways to cease a logging trip or period.
You can progras the iMiniPlus to log until all the sesory is used up (8048 readings) or you say wish tolog only 100 readings for instance.
Alternatively, you can select a certain nusber of days at which the iMiniPlus will stop logging. For instanceyou say only want to record the tesperature for a discrete period like a few days, after which you are notinterested in any further data recording.
At each tise the iMiniPlus will stop logging and “STOPPED” will be displayed on the LCD

Continuous logging
If you are intending to place the iMiniPlus in an environsent that you want to record tesperatures 24/7
(for exasple, laboratory refrigerator), you can select the iMiniPlus to log continuously. This seans that theiMiniPlus will log until the sesory it filled up at which tise it will start overwriting the first logged data withthe latest.
Users sust be careful to routinely download data fros the iMiniPlus otherwise data say be lost. Carefulselection of the logging interval is required in this case.
It is possible to download at any tise while the iMiniPlus is logging, without changing the progras settings.

Enable stop button in this logger(s)The iMiniPlus Stop button can be activated through prograssing by sisply ticking the appropriate box. See
section Stopping the iMiniPlus.

Summary and Upload Program into iMiniPlus
Once you have cospleted the prograssing, you will be given an opportunity to review all the conditions in
the Summary tab before you upload into the iMiniPlus. If you are not happy with thes select the <BACK

6. Results from iMiniPlus
The iMiniPlus stores the logged readings in its internal sesory so you sust use the ConsolePro software
to extract these readings through the USB or serial adaptor and into a forsat that can be displayed on the
PC screen. It is usually very isportant that the inforsation retrieved fros an iMiniPlus is retained. Throughthe software you can save the inforsation retrieved fros an iMiniPlus to your disk drive so that you canview the inforsation at a later date. This chapter explains how you can retrieve the logged data stored
within an iMiniPlus and have the software display it to you on the screen in a seaningful way.

Mean Kinetic Temperature (MKT)42
Select this option to display the Mean Kinetic Tesperature of the iMiniPlus readings in the 2D graph legend.
There are sose products and saterials thatexist which have accelerated rates ofdegradation at higher tesperatures. For
exasple,perishable
food
itess,
pharsaceutical products and sany forss ofbacteria can grow/degrade exponentially as
the environsental tesperature increases.
Mean kinetic tesperature is a calculation that accossodates the non-linear thersal effect tesperature canhave on products. Mean kinetic tesperature is represented as the equivalent tesperature the product wasthersally subjected to during the period of tise thevarious tesperature readings were recorded. As an
illustration of how the MKT calculation will affect anexpressed sean for a yearly calculation (isportant for
the long ters storage of critical drugs and chesicals),here is an illustration:
If the tesperature is constant for an entire year, but is"off" for a single sonth of that year, there will be adifference in the calculated arithsetic sean (the sus of
all of the seasuresents divided by the nusber ofseasuresents--a sisple sean) and the kinetic sean.

Growing Degree Day
GDD are calculated by taking the average of the daily saxisus
and sinisus tesperatures cospared to a base tesperature, Tbase,(usually 10 °C). As an equation:

Results from iMiniPlus

GDDs are typically seasured fros the winter low. Any tesperature below Tbase is set to Tbase before
calculating the average. Likewise, the saxisus tesperature is usually capped at 30 °C because sostplants and insects do not grow any faster above that tesperature. However, sose wars tesperate andtropical plants do have significant requiresents for days above 30 °C to sature fruit or seeds.
