Request a Quote for Replacement

Effective November 1st, 2023, all XL Series Data Loggers, including the H-522+ & H-522, have been discontinued. The comparable products to use instead would be a DL Series Data Logger or a Storm3 Data Logger.

Full-Featured Data Logger with Integrated GOES Transmitter with Internal GPS. Includes GPS Antenna and cable—minimum of 256mB internal Flash memory for data storage.

• Overview

  If you are experiencing an issue with your GOES transmitter, please check out the GOES Support Page

  If you're looking for a data logger with a fully integrated HDR transmitter the H-522 and H-522+ are your models. Capable of communicating through GOES or INSAT satellites, these models are designed for use in remote monitoring applications.  The H-522 and H-522+ allow your to transmit data storage and sensor values to a satellite network for near real-time data retrieval. If you don't have the need for a display, the H-522 is your model, but keep in mind, the H-522+ is our top seller, with close to 6000 units in operation to date.

  Features:

  • Simple menu driven user interface
  • Low standby power
  • External button allows simplified means to view current data values
  • USB Type A Host and Mini B Device (2.0)
  • Three RS-232 Serial Ports for use with local terminals, displays, modems/satellite, etc.
  • Four analog inputs
  • SDI-12 Master or Slave Mode
  • Quadrature shaft encoder input/output
  • Event counter input (Tipping Bucket Rain Gauge)
  • Frequency input (wind speed)
  • Scalable 4-20 mA Output
  • Data logging using nonvolatile internal storage
  • XL Basic Programming
  • Integrated Satellite Transmitter (H-522+ only)
