Programming the TFD 500

Manual

Quick Start

Configure recording for 5min interval, temperature only:

./tfd500_cli.py configure --interval 5m

Configure recording for 1min interval, temperature and humidity:

./tfd500_cli.py configure --interval 1m --humidity

Set the logger’s internal clock:

./tfd500_cli.py setclock

Write recorded data points to a file, using the time and date format of the current locale. The filename will be automatically determined from the recorded data:

./tfd500_cli.py dump --time-fmt "%c"

Write recorded data points to the standard output, using the default date/time format, but change the data format to <date><tab><temperature><tab><humidity> instead of the original CSV format (which is %c;%d;%t;%h):

./tfd500_cli.py dump --output - --data-fmt="%d\t%t\t%h"
