SECTION 1 DESCRIPTION 1.1 HARDWARE AND SOFTWARE

This manual contains information on the Carrier Transicold DataLINE Program and its interface with the DataCORDER. DataLINE Software is used to retrieve data stored in the Micro-Link 2/2i Controller and DataCORDER. Data retrieval can be accomplished with one of the following devices: 1. Stand-alone Windows 95, 98, 2000 or NT (4.0 or higher) personal computer (PC) with appropriate cable and software 2. Carrier DataReader hand held retriever (see Section 4) The retrieved data can then be printed from a PC in various report formats. From the DataReader, it can be transferred to a PC for storage on a floppy or hard disk. The DataLINE software for a portable computer is supplied on a CD and on 3.5 inch floppy disks (refer to Table 1-1). This software allows data extraction, display of the data, report generation, probe calibration, file management and printing. Table 1-1. DataLINE Software PART NUMBER

*Package includes Carrier manual number 62--10628, DataLINE Data Retrieval Installation Guide. Updates to the DataLINE software, which are called Service Packs, will be posted on the Carrier Transicold web site (www.container.carrier.com.) as they become available. To protect software ownership, a Service Pack may only be loaded on a PC that has the DataLINE software package installed. Dataline software service packs include all information and updates implemented to that point (i.e. version 3 will include all version 3 changes as well as previous updates for versions 1 and 2.) Online help is available 1.2 DATACORDER

The DataCORDER records and stores data. While this manual primarily addresses the interrogation of the Micro-Link 2/2i DataCORDER (see Figure 1-1 and Figure 1-2), interrogation can also be done on units with the Micro-Link 1 DataCORDER using the DataReader. Additional information on the DataCORDER may be found in the unit Operation and Service manuals.

1.2.3 DataCORDER Capabilities (Micro-Link 2 and Micro-Link 2i only)

The Carrier DataCORDER is a flexible recording device with the following capabilities: a. Sensors

Up to six thermistor temperature probes can be connected directly to the DataCORDER. These probes are referred to as: 1. Supply 2. Return 3. USDA 1 4. USDA 2 5. USDA 3 6. Cargo Probe On separate DataCORDER modules (Micro-Link 2 only) there are also two 0-5vdc inputs available for future expansion. In addition to these inputs, eight sensors connected to the refrigeration or controlled atmosphere controllers can be recorded. This list of sensors includes: 1. Humidity Sensor 2. Controlled Atmosphere Gas Sensors 3. Temperature Controller Probes (including: supply, return, and defrost temperatures) 4. Controller Pressure Sensors 5. Current Sensors 6. Line Voltage Sensor 7. Frequency NOTE The supply and return sensors (SRS and RRS) used by the DataCORDER are not the same supply and return sensors (STS and RTS) used by the Controller. b. Log Interval

Micro-Link DataCORDER’s log data on 60 minute intervals from time of trip start. Micro-Link 2/2i DataCORDER sensors can be recorded at intervals of 15, 30, 60 (default), or 120 minutes. Data is logged on the exact interval, using a precise real time clock (RTC). All clocks are set to Greenwich Mean Time at the factory and all recording is done on the exact interval (at 12:00 for example, rather than 12:03). NOTE Unless specified by your customer to set the DataCORDER clocks for another time zone, the clocks should NOT be adjusted. c. Sensor Recording Format

Sensors can be recorded in a wide variety of formats. A one byte temperature format can be used for compact data storage. A two byte format can be used for high resolution over the entire temperature range. 1. One byte format (default): 2. Two byte format: 0 .010°C steps for entire range d. Sampling Type

1. Averaged (default): shows average of data from every minute over the logging interval. 2. Snapshot: shows snapshot of data at the log interval. 3. USDA: shows snapshot of data at a 60 minute log interval.

1.3 DATACORDER INTERFACE

The DataCORDER is capable of performing the following functions initiated by the DataLINE Program 1.3.1 Data Extraction a. Daily Header Data

Recorded days are presented in the following format: 1. Day 1 date (month, day, year), sensor data, events, ... 2. Day 2 date (month, day, year), sensor data, events, ... b. Sensor Data

Sensor data will be read based on either standard or generic configuration. Refer to separately bound manuals covering the CTD Refrigeration Unit for further explanation of standard and generic configurations. 1.3.2 Events

Events will be transmitted to the DataCORDER as specified in Table 1-2, Table 1-3 and Table 1-4. The DataCORDER compacts the events, disposing of repetitive events to save memory space. All events have a time and date stamp. Table 1-2. Temperature Controller Events Event
