Thermal Validation: Matching Tool to Task

Validation/Mapping System with vLog Validatable Data Loggers


Compliance with strict regulatory guidelines or inspection SOPs demand gap-free data and secure reports. The vLog system is a cost-effective method for mapping temperature and humidity in your critical controlled environments. In addition, vLog sets up and deploys faster than any other high accuracy mapping system available.

With its easy-to-use Windows-based interface for configuring your Vaisala-Veriteq VL series of data loggers, vLog allows users to download, display, analyze and report information. Presentation-ready reports are available in minutes.

vLog System Features:

  • Quick Visual of Results

  • Click the graph for details.

    Horizontal bars move automatically with min, max, and avg values. And, you can superimpose up to 4 indicators wherever you want—set the value, units (temp or RH), label, and color for each indicator.

  • Detailed, Customizable Graphs
    Add statistics such as min, max, and avg values, max minus min value, max minus avg value, avg minus min value, group statistics. And use more explanation in the signoff area with up to 6 lines of text to describe the run.

  • Industry-best Security
    vLog uses all the capabilities of Windows password authentication — domain level or local account authentication. Your IT staff can implement what they already use to protect other company assets.

  • File Security Status Indication
    The security status of the data is identified on every report. You know whether files are secure or not, and if files have security problems or tampering issues. It’s easy to know that your files are 21 CFR Part 11 compliant.

  • System-wide Traceability
    vLog provides a validated audit trail. A built-in audit trail report generator creates reports—for all logger data or for a time you specify. No interaction with the system goes unrecorded.

  • Time Saving Batch Setup & Transfer
    Use the settings from one logger in additional data loggers—start and stop time, sample interval, logger and channel descriptions, and channel flags.
    NOTE: In the latest version of vLog (4.4) users can Modify the Batch Setup feature to support a range of COM ports.

Detailed Graphical & Tabular Reports

  • Graph overlay to highlight relationships between files
  • Zoom or cursor pin-point of actual values, times and dates
  • Multiple graph windows for comparative studies
  • Horizontal lines dynamically track min, max, avg—easy visual of actual limits
  • User-added horizontal lines for min, max, avg—easy visual of acceptance criteria
  • Min, max and avg values and times for a group of inputs
  • Statistical studies, including lethality
  • Tabular format with dates, times and logged values
  • Graph scrolling to examine trends in detail
  • Automatic Mean Kinetic Temperature calculation

Data Security & Integrity

  • Up to 3 levels of security—Windows user names and unique passwords (Windows Active Directory)
  • Protects encrypted data logger files with indication of tampering
  • Recognizes and documents any modifications or altered files and renders them unusable
