Recording every minute all of the time might be too much, but it does
let you demonstrate to your volunteers and staff the effects of leaving
the door open on a hot summer day!

Mark,

 

I read out our hydrothermographs one a week. I currently have them set
to record temperature/relative humidity every 1 minute. It seems to work
very well and my weekly read-out's are accurate and we are able to
detect any inconsistencies and correct them in a timely manner. However,
I am also wondering if recording every 1 minute is a bit of overkill?? I
would be interested to hear feedback and suggestions from others as
well.

 

Thanks,

Subject: [MUSEUM-L] Recording thermohydrograph

 

Hello all,

 

I recently acquired several digital thermohydrographs.  They seem to be
incredibly flexible with their recording settings, and I was wondering
how often should I set my loggers to record. For example , is recording
the temperature/humidity hourly overkill or not enough? Also how often
should I be reading these things out? 

 

Many thanks for any advice you could give me

Cheers

Mark
