Temperature logger files, in text format (.txt) can be imported by approved laboratories.

 

Prerequisite:
The File name must be a concatenation of the data logger ID ("Temp Logger ID) and the date of sample reception by the lab (in local time) separated by an underscore.
Example: Temp Logger ID = "KG34V10".
Date of sample reception (YYYY-MM-DD) ="2015-03-25".
Filename="KG34V10_2015-03-25.txt".
