Onset Hobo UX90 Occupancy and Light Logger

The Onset Hobo UX90 Occupancy & Light Logger is a matchbox-sized, LCD data logger that tracks building occupancy and light usage to pinpoint areas in a building that could benefit from occupancy sensors and other energy-savings initiatives.

Suitable for building owners, facility managers, energy auditors and lighting contractors, the data loggers collect time-stamped data documenting each time room occupancy or lighting status changes. The compact devices are easy to mount to lighting fixtures, ceilings and walls, and can be set up and installed in less than a minute.

Once data has been recorded with the logger, it can be viewed in graph form using accompanying Hoboware software and printed out for use in reports. The data can also be exported to Microsoft Excel for more detailed analysis.

In addition to the Occupancy and Light Logger, the toolbox suite includes data loggers for measuring motor on/off status, electronic pulses, state changes and light use patterns.

The loggers have a range of features that are designed to help streamline energy audits. The loggers offer a large LCD that visually confirms logger operation; signal strength indication that ensures proper logger placement; large memory capacity that enables longer deployments with fewer site visits; and a USB 2.0 PC interface for full-speed data offloads. The loggers also feature start and stop push-buttons and rare earth magnet, strap and command-strip mounting options to help ensure the loggers stay put during deployment.

The software allows users to batch-configure and read out hundreds of loggers in a fraction of the time it would take with previous versions. Additionally, it features a bulk export feature that allows users to export data files to text format for use in spreadsheets and other programs.
