Our strict focus on data logging technology allows us to concentrate on important factors that relate directly to data logger performance. We are, and will continue to be, data logging specialists. It is a comparative term and we use it with chart recorders and larger data acquisition systems in mind. We have discovered that there is a significant need for data loggers with small form factors and smaller channel counts than that offered by much of the data logger market. Spectrum data loggers have 12-bit resolution.
Resolution is the smallest change that can be distinguished by a measurement instrument.
If the tape was labeled using 10-bit resolution, the tape would have a marking every quarter of an inch, a significant improvement. Maybe we could use this one for the garden shed or the compost box at the back. Veriteq data loggers have been optimized from the start for exceptionally long battery life. As an example, one of the biggest power consumers in any measuring instrument is the sensor circuitry. In a typical chart recorder this circuitry is powered continuously, a condition that can drain the battery rapidly.
