The intelliRock II system is a state-of-the-art concrete maturity and temperature profiling system. The system is comprised of three major components: Loggers, Readers, and Windows Software. The loggers are totally self-contained measurement and computing systems that contain a precision temperature measurement system, microprocessor, memory, and a battery. The reader is used to communicate with the logger (i.e. start loggers, download data) as well as “shuttle” data from loggers in the field to a PC. The windows software that is provided with the system is used to download logger data from the hand-held reader to a PC. Once on a PC, the data is stored in 2 formats: Text (.csv comma separated value), and Secure (.sec). The text files are in a convenient format that is readable by most PC software including Microsoft Excel. The secure file is encrypted but a decrypted text file may be generated from the data by anyone with the download software. The secure file is unalterable and ensures that the data is exactly what was downloaded from the logger. intelliRock II loggers are available with a variety of functions including temperature logging and several maturity calculation methods. The model number of the logger describes the basic functionality. For example: MAT-02-1H28D: Maturity Logger, logs data every 1 hour for 28 days TPL-02-5M7D: Temperature logger, Logs data every 5 minutes for 7 Days Several configurations are available to meet most applications and custom configurations are available to satisfy any specification. For a complete list of available loggers, contact an intelliRock representative.

RReeaaddeerr OOvveerrvviieeww The figure on the next page shows the general layout of the reader. The reader has two connectors. • The connector on the top is the logger connector. • The connector on the side of the reader is for interfacing to a PC and other devices.

The eight-line display area provides these indicators: • The intelliRock system status line is on the top line of the display. • The upper left text is the menu name, which differs depending on the status of the logger

connected to the reader, if any. • The number with the # symbol is the serial number of the connected logger. The logger icon is

present if a logger is connected. The Logger Mode icon indicates the status of the connected logger (Hourglass=Standby, R=Run, S=Stopped). The locked/unlocked symbol indicated if the logger operation has been locked.

• The battery icon gradually turns from black to transparent to indicate the reader’s battery level.

Navigation through the menu system is accomplished using the function keys, F1 thru F5. When a number needs to be entered the numeric keys on the keypad become active. When text is expected, the keypads alpha keys and numbers become active.

EEnntteerriinngg aallpphhaa--nnuummeerriicc tteexxtt uussiinngg tthhee iinntteelllliiRRoocckk IIII kkeeyyppaadd intelliRock II has adopted the current industry standard for alpha-numeric text entry from a limited keyboard such as a cell phone.

When entering text information using the intelliRock II keypad 1. Find the key that has the letter or number that you want to enter 2. Press the key as many times as needed for the letter to appear on the screen.

For example, to enter INTELLIROCK 2 do the following at a text input prompt (such as entering a note): Press 4 4 4 I Press 6 6 N Press 8 T Press 3 3 E Press 5 5 5 L Press 5 5 5 L (See note 1) Press 4 4 4 I Press 7 7 7 R Press 6 6 6 O Press 2 2 2 C Press 5 5 K Press 0 (space) Press 2 2 2 2 2 (See note 2) Note 1: When entering a letter that is on the same key as the previous letter you must pause for one second to wait for the cursor to advance to the next letter. Note 2: When text is expected, the keyboard automatically enters the alpha mode. In alpha mode letters are selected when pressing a key before the number is selected. For example, if there are three letters on the key along with the number that you would like to enter, then press the key four times. If a text entry box expects a number, then the keypad is automatically switched into numeric mode, where only the numbers on the keypad are active. To backspace press the left arrow key (on the F5 button)

3. When finished press Enter

SSeettttiinngg tthhee TTiimmee && DDaattee The intelliRock time and data needs to be set for your particular time zone. To set the time and date, turn the reader on and do NOT attach a logger. Select “Set time and date” by pressing F2 on the keypad. Follow the on-screen instructions to set the time and date. Use 2 digit numbers for all parameters (i.e. February is “02”, 2003 is “03”)

SSeettttiinngg TTeemmppeerraattuurree UUnniittss The intelliRock II system ships from the factory configured to display temperature in °C. If you woul d prefer to have temperature displayed in °F, then tu rn the system on without a logger attached and select “Set °C/°F Display” then follow the on-scree n instructions. Note that maturity time-temperature factors will still read in units of °C*H. Data wil l also be downloaded to a PC in °C.

AAddjjuussttiinngg tthhee DDiissppllaayy CCoonnttrraasstt To adjust the display contrast for best readability, turn the system on without a logger attached and press F1 repeatedly.

EErraassiinngg RReeaaddeerr DDaattaa To erase the data in the reader, turn the reader on without a logger attached and select “Erase Reader Data” (what function key is this?). Typically this operation should be done via the Windows software. However, erasing the data from the reader keypad is also an option. This may take a couple of minutes if the reader contains a large amount of data.

Page 6 of 38

BBaassiicc LLooggggeerr OOppeerraattiioonnss The intelliRock II system is designed to be very simple to operate, yet have a variety of data management options available when needed. The only functionality for basic operation is:

1. Starting loggers 2. Reading loggers

The following paragraphs describe these operations in greater detail. SSttaarrttiinngg aa llooggggeerr To start a logger, connect the logger to the red/black terminals on the top of the reader.

Press the “ON” key to start the reader. The reader will automatically detect the logger. When the logger is detected, the reader menu changes to the “Standby” logger menu as shown below: To start the logger, press F2 on the keypad

Page 7 of 38

NOTES: • Once a logger has been started and runs for 60 minutes, it goes into data lock mode where it cannot

be stopped or its operation interfered with. • A logger will immediately start without an option to enter additional information by holding down

the ENTER key while pressing F2. After pressing F2, the following screen pictured below will appear:

To enter a new job name, press F1, or select a previously entered job name if listed by pressing the corresponding function key. The intelliRock II reader follows the same convention for entering text as a cellular telephone. Job names are limited to 15 characters in length.

To accept the job name that was input, press the ENTER key on the reader keypad.

Page 8 of 38

Once a job name is entered, the intelliRock reader will prompt the user to enter a location, as depicted in photograph to the right. This location reference is to location of the logger. Entering a logger location simplifies data review later by being able to refer to a logger by its location instead of simply its serial number. To enter a location, press the F1 key on the reader keypad. To bypass entering a location, press F2.

There is a 15 character limit to the length of a location. In this example, a location of EAST WALL has been entered: To accept the location that was input, press the ENTER key on the reader keypad.

After entering the location, the reader will prompt the user to enter the Datum value, as shown in the reader depicted to the right: To enter a new Datum value, simply type the corresponding digits on the reader keypad and press the ENTER key. To accept the default Datum value of 0° C, simply pres s the ENTER key. After completing this operation, the logger will be in RUN mode and the logger will immediately begin logging data. The reader display will indicate that the logger is in RUN mode, as illustrated below:

Page 9 of 38

The logger will continue to log data for a predetermined interval depending on the model number. Once complete, the logger will automatically enter “Stopped” mode. Data can be retrieved at any time for the remainder of the logger’s battery life (typically over 1 year).

VViieewwiinngg CCuurrrreenntt TTeemmppeerraattuurree && MMaattuurriittyy DDaattaa ffrroomm tthhee llooggggeerr To view current temperature or maturity data from a logger, first connect the reader to the logger from which a current data reading is desired. Once the logger is connected to the reader, turn the reader on by pressing the ON key on the reader keypad. The reader display will appear as pictured below:

Press the F1 key on the reader to get a current data reading. As pictured below, the display will contain the current temperature & maturity data from the attached logger:

Page 12 of 38

AAddvvaanncceedd LLooggggeerr//RReeaaddeerr OOppeerraattiioonn Several additional data management features are available for large jobs, and jobs with critical operation timing. To get to the advanced logger configuration options, connect a logger and select the F5- “Advanced” menu item. AAddddiinngg NNootteess aanndd EEvveennttss Notes and events can be added to the logger and viewed via the “Advanced” menu option. Notes and events are text messages that are permanently stored in the logger. The difference between a note and event is that an event is time and value stamped, and a note is only a line of text. For example, if a slab can be post-tensioned at 3000 °CH and an eve nt is added, then the time, maturity, and temperature of the slab can be stored in the logger by adding an event named, for example, “Post Tension”.

VViieewwiinngg HHiissttoorriiccaall LLooggggeerr DDaattaa aass aa GGrraapphh To view historical data from a logger as a graph, first connect the reader to the desired logger and turn the reader on. This function is very useful for monitoring concrete temperature swings in cold weather and extrapolating maturity values to target maturity levels to for scheduling operations. The display will appear as follows:

Press the F5 key on the reader to navigate to the ADVANCED menu.

Page 17 of 38

After pressing the F5 key from the STARTUP menu, the ADVANCED menu will appear, as pictured below.

To view historical logger data press the F3 key on the reader keypad. When this function is selected, all of the data is downloaded from the logger, as indicated by the display:

Page 18 of 38

It may take several seconds for the reader to download the logger data. Once data download is complete, the display will appear as follows:

Press the function key on the reader that corresponds to the graph you wish to display: F1 for temperature or F2 for maturity. After you have pressed the function key corresponding to the type of data you wish to graph, the data history display parameters menu will appear as pictured below:

You can change the parameters that control how much data is displayed per screen by pressing F1 to view more time per screen, or F2 to view less time. To accept the default value of one day’s set of data per screen, simply press the ENTER key.

Page 19 of 38

The reader will now display the first screen of data in graphical mode:

If there is more data than can appear on one screen, MORE will appear in the upper right corner of the display. To see the next set of data, press the MORE key on the keypad. To scroll through all data available for display, continue to press the MORE key, or press the CANCEL key to exit the graph. When the final screen of data is being displayed, the word DONE will appear in the upper right corner of the display, as pictured below:

SSttooppppiinngg aa llooggggeerr Once a logger has been started, it may be stopped and reset only during the first hour of operation. To stop a logger, select the “Stop Logger” option in the “Advanced” menu. Once a logger has been stopped it must be “Reset” from the “Advanced” menu before it can be restarted. After 1 hour of logging the logger will “lock” itself. After that time data can be added to the logger and data can be retrieved, however the overall operation of the logger cannot be altered. Once the logger is locked, a lock icon appears in the status line. VViieewwiinngg llooggggeerr mmooddeell nnuummbbeerr From the Notes menu, selecting “Logger Info” will display the logger model number, along with other useful logger information.

TTrroouubbllee--SShhoooottiinngg aanndd TTeecchhnniiccaall SSuuppppoorrtt The following sections may help if you are experiencing problems. Please contact technical support if you are still having difficulties. Reader Not Found Problem • Make sure you are using either Windows 2000 or Windows XP. • Make sure reader is turned-on. Press any key on the hand held reader to turn it on. • If the intelliRock II reader is not at the opening menu because any intelliRock II reader keypad

buttons were intentionally or accidentally pressed, the reader may stop communicating with intelliRock. If in doubt, turn the intelliRock II reader off and then back on to return the intelliRock II reader back to the opening menu. Click here for directions on how to turn the intelliRock II reader off.

• Check both ends of the USB cable. Use a USB port that you know is working. • On the reader end of the USB cable, make sure the cable connector is all the way down and

connector ring is locked-down. The intelliRock II reader has a locking connector and sometimes it can appear to be locked while it is not. To lock the connector, push-in while turning clock-wise.

• Try disconnecting the USB cable from the PC for five seconds before reconnecting. • Make sure reader batteries are not empty. A reader icon displayed at the upper right corner of

the screen indicates battery life. If the battery icon is not black in the center it is empty and new batteries will need to be installed.

• Try turning on the intelliRock II reader first, before starting intelliRock. This should not help newer version of the software. On the older version 1.1 software this sometimes helped under Windows XP.

• Try running Scan Ports from the intelliRock->Tools folder. When the reader is connected and turned on you should see a USB COM port appear. If it does not, and you have checked all your connections, try uninstalling and reinstalling the USB drivers.

• If you are using a notebook computer docking bay, try using a direct USB port located on the notebook computer

• If you use a PDA such as a Palm Pilot that interfaces to your computer using a serial port, try disabling the synchronizing software. There is a bug in the Palm Pilot HotSync software that results in HotSync opening the USB/serial port used by the intelliRock II reader and refusing to release it.

CCoonnfflliiccttss WWiitthh PPaallmm PPiilloott PPDDAA HHoottSSyynncc SSooffttwwaarree If you use a PDA such as a Palm Pilot that interfaces to your computer using a serial port, try disabling the synchronizing software. There is a bug in the Palm Pilot HotSync software that results in HotSync opening the USB/serial port used by the intelliRock II reader and not releasing it. This has occurred despite configuring the HotSync software to use COM1 yet when the intelliRock II reader appears on COM9 for example, the HotSync software would attach to COM9. The HotSync software appears to be confused and thinks the intelliRock II reader is a Palm Pilot. This is a bug with the HotSync software and not intelliRock. The simple work around to this

problem is to temporarily disable the HotSync software.

Page 26 of 38
