TrendReader 2 Software

The ACR Systems TrendReader 2 Software is a powerful, versatile and easy-to-use application, designed exclusively for ACR's SmartReader Plus, SmartReader, IAQ, OWL, TRH, JR and Nautilus data loggers. Powerful features and easy setup enables collected data to be thoroughly analyzed in seconds.

Downloading and Communicating with Data Logger

Connection is simple; plug the interface cable into the USB port of your computer and connect the other end to the logger. No tools, cards or docking stations are required.

Data Logger Setup

With built-in menus for sample rate and mode, start delay, equations and more, logger setup is fast and easy. In addition, equations are already included for all ACR sensors so you need only select the appropriate equation from the menu or customize your own. Real-time readings are displayed in the Setup window, allowing you to verify that your data logger is working correctly before placing it in the field.

Viewing Data

With TrendReader 2, data can be viewed in several ways. For presentation purposes, view your collected data in graphical format or for a more detailed analysis, view your data in table format. Either way, multiple channels of data can be displayed at once. Multiple graphs can be displayed together and compounded to create new graphs. For added presentation power, add comments, change graph colors, zoom in on specific portions of data, and display your data using custom engineering units. Print or copy and paste graphs into your reports and presentations. Select all, or portions of the table and copy and paste into your favorite Windows program.

Exporting Data

Use the export function in TrendReader 2 to export your data to other programs for further analysis. Data can be exported in TXT, BMP, PDF, JPG or CSV formats.
