reading the whole manual to take advantage of all of the features and get the most out of your SymphoniePRO

system.

data logging system specifically designed for conducting resource assessments for the renewable energy

The SymphoniePRO logger has selectable statistical averaging intervals (1, 2, 5, 10, 15, 30, 60 minutes). One

second samples can be recorded by the logger allowing review of the sample-by-sample data for complex

scientific studies. Data intervals are time-stamped with the beginning time of each interval and are written to

the internal Flash memory. If an SD card is installed, the data will also be stored on the SD card.

Addition of an iPack allows flexible options for data transfer through remote MetLink connections or standard

email services. MetLink is a proprietary protocol optimized for NRG loggers and transfers data over multiple

types of communication interfaces. MetLink allows connections to be initiated from either direction (from the

logger or from SymphoniePRO Desktop Application), and the MetLink Monitor utility can be used to view the

status of active connections.

Various communications options are available to fit your application and location anywhere in the world.
