In addition to taking live measurements, your Kestrel 5
Series weather meter is a powerful data logger. The Kestrel
will automatically create a time stamped data log of all
measurements at the logging interval you set. Additional log
points can also be captured manually. Logged data can be
accessed four ways:
» Viewed on the Kestrel Meter on the Data Graph Screen and
Data Log Detail Screens.
» Kestrel LiNK mobile apps available in the App Store and
Google Play Store. Requires a Kestrel LiNK-enabled meter
and compatible Bluetooth® LE devices.
» Exported to a PC or Mac using Kestrel LiNK software and a
Kestrel USB Dongle (available separately). Requires a Kestrel
LiNK-enabled meter
» Exported to your Windows or Mac computer using Kestrel
LiNK software and a Kestrel USB Data Transfer Cable
(available separately). All 5 Series Kestrel meters can connect
to Kestrel LiNK using a Kestrel USB Data Transfer Cable.
