This advanced FieldLogger model can function as an RS485 Master and comes with an Ethernet port, complete assembly with HMI attached, and USB host for downloading logs to a USB memory stick. Data can also be accessed via Mini USB using free NXperience software. Dual RS485 interface supports up to 32 Modbus RTU Slave and Master channels, so the device can gather data from hardwired universal inputs or networked devices.
We are experienced in the configuration and commissioning of the FieldLogger product line and can offer initial training and ongoing technical support.
FieldLogger is a simple to use industrial grade datalogger, covering a wide range of applications such as monitoring of industrial processes, cold chain/logistics, data centres, building management, and renewable energy. No software purchases or ongoing subscriptions required.
It offers fast, no-code setup with free NXperience software, 512K internal memory expandable with an SD card, up to 100 channels logged simultaneously, 8 universal inputs supporting multiple sensor types, 8 digital I/O and 2 relay outputs, networked sensor logging (64 registers via RS485 or Ethernet), logic operations and virtual channels, up to 32 configurable alarms, and a Mini USB interface for programming, monitoring, and download. Power supply: 100-240 VAC.
FieldLogger and LogBox products are typically available on 7-10 days lead time. If your requirement is urgent, please contact us.

Technical Details
FieldLogger is a versatile, powerful, and cost-effective data logger handling analogue, digital, and other types of variables with high resolution and speed — high performance and high connectivity equipment, yet easy to configure and operate.
It has 8 configurable analogue inputs that can read thermocouples, Pt100, Pt1000, voltage and current signals. It also has 2 relay outputs and 8 digital ports, individually configurable as inputs or outputs.
Up to 128 mathematical channels can be used to perform operations on the measured values. Up to 32 alarm events can be detected, allowing output activations, emails, and SNMP traps.
Its RS485 interface can operate as a Modbus RTU master or slave. As a master, it can read and log up to 64 external channels. It has a 10/100 Mbps Ethernet interface allowing access through a browser (HTTP), FTP (client and server), email sending (SMTP), SNMP, and Modbus TCP.
FieldLogger has one USB interface for connecting to a computer (configuration, monitoring, data download) and another USB port for a flash drive for data retrieval. The 512k logging basic memory can be greatly expanded with an SD card.
NXperience is Novus's current configuration software, accessible by Ethernet, USB, or RS485, providing online monitoring, logged data download, export to spreadsheets and other formats, and support for the latest MQTT features.
Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need ongoing software subscriptions?
No — configuration, monitoring, and data download use the free NXperience software with no software purchases or subscriptions required.
Can it operate as a Modbus Master to collect data from other devices?
Yes — with dual RS485 interfaces it can act as Modbus RTU Master or Slave, reading and logging up to 64 external registers.
Does it support MQTT?
Yes — FieldLogger is now configured with NXperience, which supports the latest MQTT features for cloud and IoT broker connectivity.
