Features of the Latest Data Loggers
Data loggers refer to various devices that can be used to save data. Conventional data loggers have mostly been used as peripheral equipment that enables saved data to be read by computers. However, the latest data loggers can analyze saved data without using computers. In addition to high measurement accuracy and high performance for analysis and other functions, these data loggers also provide usability, convenience, and simple analysis of measured data.
This section introduces the features of KEYENCE’s latest data loggers that allow for convenient measurement and easy analysis.
Convenient measurement
Our latest data loggers have been developed to be as compact as possible, thereby providing users with flexibility for convenient measurement in any environment.
A combination with a battery unit that can support even a high-capacity battery helps you greatly during on-vehicle testing or measurement on a site where a power supply is not readily available.
Small body—the smallest and lightest in its class
Conventional models
Because conventional models are large, it was necessary to secure sufficient installation space.
With the NR Series
This product has achieved an ultra compact and light design of 52 mm wide, 107 mm high, 68 mm deep, and 260 grams in weight, and it still shows a high level of basic performance in multi-channel, high-speed, high-resolution measurement.. This readily portable instrument does not take up a large amount of space and can even be put on a desk.
Newly available high-capacity mobile battery pack
Conventional models
Generally driven by AC or DC power supplies.
With the NR Series
A dedicated lithium ion battery is useful for on-vehicle testing and measurement on a manufacturing site where a power supply is not readily available. Its energy saving design allows continuous measurement for up to 550 minutes.
Measurement of mixed signals
Eight types of high-precision measurement units are available to meet a wide variety of evaluation and analysis requirements. You can simultaneously look for various types of data—such as voltage, temperature, strain, and acceleration—and measure them in a mixed manner.
Furthermore, sampling is completely synchronized, so you can clearly see the correlation between waveforms.
Mixed and synchronous collection of multiple signals
Conventional models
Different instruments have been used according to the physical quantities and signals to be input. Time and effort have been required to compare obtained data later.
With the NR Series
By using our unique measurement bus, you can collect data with all measurement units completely synchronized.
For example, mixed collection of temperature and strain is possible just by using the NR Series.
Easy analysis on your PC

Easy setting and analysis with WAVE LOGGER PRO
Conventional models
Initial settings were required for a connection with a PC because RS-232C or GPIB was usually used to establish the connection.
Also, data analysis has required an extensive number of man-hours.
With the NR Series
This product offers incredible compatibility with PCs. All you have to do is connect it to your PC via USB. No complicated initial settings are required at all.
The settings required for data collection can also be configured easily, so you can start collecting data right away. Even with an overwhelming amount of information, an easy-to-view display allows for smooth data analysis.
Multi-window batch display function
One-touch display switching with the direct toolbar
Wireless connection to a laptop or tablet terminal
A wireless LAN unit is now available! It is now possible to connect the main unit wirelessly to a laptop or tablet terminal located on a remote site to configure data collection and check the collection status.
This wireless connection can be made very easily without having to go through a corporate network and without requiring an external power supply.
