Part No: #18045

OVERVIEW

The L120 Enclosed Logger (USB) is a powerful control device and fully programmable data logger, all in one compact unit.

It comes standard with 120MB internal memory plus USB logging for additional data capacity, convenience and flexibility.

The L120 acquires data from other devices, such as an ECU, for logging and telemetry. It can be used in a wide range of applications, either as a standalone unit or integrated with other electronic devices such as displays and PDM's.

Note: An L120 Enclosed Logger without USB Logging is also available. (Part #18039)

SOFTWARE

Microsoft Windows based software
Used for setup and management of the data logging system, providing:
- Configuration of the inputs, ouputs, data logging and calculations.
- Offline generation of a configuration file that can then be sent to the device.
- Channel monitoring
- Firmware updating and extensive help screens
i2 Data Analysis software provides the tools for comprehensive data analysis. Standard or Pro* version available
T2 Telemetry* software

(* available via upgrades)

ETHERNET WIRING

ECU WIRING

When using an M4, M48 or M8 ECU, the L120 should be connected via RS232. For some ECUs, a PCI cable may also be required.

The Display Logger should be connected via the CAN bus when using an M1 or ‘hundred series’ ECU(M400/M600/M800/M880) or M84, and any number of other CAN devices. Example:

Detailed wiring information is available in the help topics of the C125 Dash Manager software at https://www.motec.com.au/downloads

DIMENSIONS AND MOUNTING

Measurements in mm.

Note: Do not remove any part of the casing. The case provides electromagnetic screening to avoid interference with other equipment, and is also essential for thermal management. Thermal management may be compromised if mounted in a confined space, refer to the operating temperature specifications. Ensure product is not stressed when mounted.
