The Rainlogger 5 is designed for use with most standard tipping-bucket rain gauges with a normally-open or closed style reed switch output.
Program and Download with a PC or Laptop
The Rainlogger 5 is programmed using Levelogger Software.
Direct PC Communication
You can communicate with a Rainlogger 5 using a Desktop Reader 5 or Field Reader 5 and a PC or laptop; or a L5 Direct Read Cable with a PC Interface Cable connected to a laptop in the field.
In-Field Communication
A DataGrabber 5 can be used to transfer data from a Rainlogger 5 to a USB flash drive key. A Levelogger 5 App Interface creates a Bluetooth® connection between the Rainlogger 5 and your smart device running the Solinst Levelogger App, for programming, and e-mailing data.
Standard Deployment
The Rainlogger 5 comes with a Connector Cable, 2 m (6.5 ft.) in length. The Connector Cable has two wires, which are connected to the tipping-bucket cable. For most tipping-bucket models, the wires can be connected to either terminal. Refer to the manufacturer's operating instructions.
Telemetry Option
To integrate the Rainlogger 5 into a Solinst Telemetry System, the Connector Cable connects the Rainlogger 5 to the tippingbucket and a short L5 Direct Read Cable or Adaptor connects to the optical end of the Rainlogger 5. The L5 Direct Read Cable connects to an STS, RRL, or LevelSender Telemetry Reader Cable, which is attached to a Remote Telemetry Station.
