You need to be an Administrator to install the software. If you do not have admin privileges, you will need someone with those privileges to install the software for you e.g. your IT people.
LogTag Analyzer produces beautiful clear graphs and comprehensive reports from your temperature data.
LogTag Analyzer is not compatible with Macs, Windows XP or Windows Vista.
When you download and install the LogTag Analyzer software, it also installs the drivers that your PC needs to recognise loggers and readers.
You will only need to reinstall the driver if the driver file has become corrupt in some way. It is often easier to completely reinstall the software.
However, if you are directed to install the drivers, the necessary files are below…
USB_Interface_Cradle_Driver.exe 1.14 – For Windows 7 or higher.
USB_Interface_Cradle_Driver.exe 1.13 – For Windows XP and Vista.
USB32_2.12.24.msi – 32-Bit Drivers for USB Interface cradles if Windows is unable to detect your USB Interface cradle.
USB64_2.12.24.msi – 64-Bit Drivers for USB Interface cradles if Windows is unable to detect your USB Interface cradle.
Have you heard of Clever Logger?
It’s a brilliant, completely automatic temperature logging system that works on any platform: Mac, PC, Linux, phones, tablets, iPads, whatever.
Latency, when it comes to temperature logging, refers to the delay between a change in temperature and when that change is detected and recorded by the logger. This delay can be due to the sensor’s design, the materials it’s placed in, or the logging interval. While it might sound like a disadvantage, latency can actually serve a useful purpose in certain environments—particularly where short-term temperature spikes are common but not harmful.
For example, in a busy commercial fridge, the temperature may briefly rise every time the door is opened. A logger with high latency won’t immediately react to these short fluctuations, helping to avoid unnecessary alarms or false data indicating a problem when there isn’t one. In these cases, a slight delay in response acts like a filter, focusing attention on real issues—such as prolonged exposure to unsafe temperatures—while ignoring the everyday ups and downs that don’t affect product quality or safety.
Depending on the type of logger you have, connecting your logger to your PC means either:
First Generation LogTags use a separate Reader (sometimes called a dock) for configuration and for downloading recorded data.
The Second Generation loggers only require a USB port or cable. Apart from saving the cost of the Reader, this makes them much better suited for shipping, because the recipient doesn’t need a LogTag Reader to download a report about the shipment’s journey.
