OVERVIEW
Capture Outdoor Data in Any Environment
A rugged weather station for outdoor environmental monitoring. Easily configurable for specific application needs, with up to 15 channels to collect environmental data and then upload it to HOBOware software for analysis. HOBOware Pro software is recommended for extended features. This station is available in two models: the U30-NRC-000-10-S100-000 and the U30-NRC-VIA-10-S100-000, which includes two analog inputs.
This rugged logger has a built-in rechargeable battery and supports up to 10 plug-and-play smart sensors and two optional analog inputs with sensor excitation. With HOBOware® Pro, you can easily configure the logger, check the status, and download data for graphing and analysis. You can also use HOBOware Pro to set up a relay that can be activated on alarm conditions.
