The Acclima DATA Boss is a rugged, simple to use, power efficient data logger with a built-in intelligent wireless network. Setup is simple with the built in LCD panel. No prior software or programming experience is required. The display and intuitive button interface make setting or adjusting configurations a snap. The radios have a range of more than one half mile and communicate using a mesh protocol, allowing network connectivity over much longer distances by relaying messages between devices. The Acclima DATA Boss can connect to a computer running Acclima's Data Manager Software by means of a DATA Link, USB port, serial port, or an SD memory Card. The DATA Boss network can also be modified and monitored remotely from your laptop or PC using the Data Manager software.
