Important note for EL005 with R5.20.0 and later releases :

Post by ziko »

Enviromon has been updated with extra features, this includes:

New monitor view,
Deviation alarms,
Archiving, save/load ini files
Improved graph panning.

To make use of the latest software you need to update your Enviromon Logger by running logload.exe. This can be found in your enviromon folder, by default in

c:\Program Files\Pico Technology\EnviroMon\Logload\

Please find attached a document for instructions on how to use logload.

Kind regards

After LogLoad instrunctions NO communication with EL-005

Post by Giannis »

Since I follow LogLoad instructions.pdf with SUCCESS it does not works serial communication with EL-005. So can I roll back this procedure OR have any suggestions about this situation ?


Thanks a lot

Hi Giannis,

Could you explain a little further on how it does not work.

Kind regards

Hi Peter could you tell me exactly what you mean by this. What error messages are you getting, if any?

before the logload stuff and the older software, the PC would sometimes not talk to the logger but was generally ok. i downloaded newer software and carried out logload successfully. now when i try to load settings it comes back with 'logger not found on com port ...' i have tried all available com ports and received same message. the initial reason for updating software was an error uploading settings 'unable to update time' but cant even get this far now.

Hi this is a bit strange since in all the attempts I have had I have had no problems. However we need to get to the roots of you problem. You say logger not found. Have you programmed the unit again or not?

yes i have run the logload successfully. would there be a problem with using a usb port with converter rather than a rs232 port as suggested? as this is what i am now doing. new laptop does not have rs232 port.

Hi Peter it should be no problem really.

All you have to make sure of is that the COM port number is between 1 and 4. You can change the com port number by going into device manager.

Hope this helps.
