Data Logger

The NDACS 6000 family of data recorders are licence protected and only allow User access while the licence is valid. The NDACS 6000 licence operates on a time of use basis and so the instrument automatically monitors its own use. Changing the date and time within the instrument will have no effect upon the licence operation. After a pre-set time period the licence time is shown within the Configuration Window. This parameter shows how many hours the instrument has left to operate before all access is denied.

Licence Number Format

Licence number = Hexadecimal 8 digit code   ########     typically similar to    d2f78a249    all digits have to be entered.
