External power supply: Disconnect the unit from the power outlet when it is not in

use or if maintenance is required after turning it off with the power switch. The

enclosed power supply unit may only be used indoors (0..40°C). Only use the

supplied, undamaged power supply unit and the corresponding power supply cable

to power the BATLOGGER. Before connecting the power supply, make sure that

the values of the local power supply comply with the printed power supply

specification. Do not use with damaged cable or plug. Do not try to open the power

supply. Repairs may only be carried out by a qualified service centre. When

disconnecting the AC adapter from the wall outlet, always pull on the plug of the

cable itself and not on the cable.

If an external power supply other than the supplied power supply (e.g. photovoltaic

panel) is used, it must be ensured that it is properly connected and protected from

moisture, rain and other environmental influences.

WTG functionality: The BATLOGGER may only be installed in the WTG by trained

and instructed personnel.

Make sure that you do not impair or damage the functions of the WTG when

installing the unit. Mount it in a place where it can be easily removed and make sure

that the openings in the gondola can be closed again later.

Ensure that both cables and equipment are safe for people and animals. Use cable

ties to avoid tripping hazards, use locking screws to prevent vibrations and ensure

that the safety of the environment is maintained.

Be careful when handling dangerous tools.

Do not connect the network interfaces of the BATLOGGER WE X with the system

relevant IT infrastructure of the wind turbine. For the BATLOGGER, use access to

the Internet that is disconnected from the operating and system IT infrastructure.

Operating conditions: The BATLOGGER WE X is suitable for operation in wind

turbine interiors. It must not be used in other environments not intended for

operation.

Microphone / ultrasonic sensor: An active electret microphone is used as the

ultrasonic sensor. Make sure that the microphone is plugged in and screwed in

correctly. The microphone itself can be damaged by water. It must therefore be

protected from dirt, rain and extreme humidity and installed accordingly. A defective

microphone can lead to unusable or incorrect data.

LTE antenna cable: For Germany:

The Federal Network Agency (BNetzA) specifies that the EIRP for LTE800 and

LTE1800 must not exceed 25 dBm. If the customer connects an alternative antenna

cable and/or another antenna to the BATLOGGER X, the customer is responsible

for ensuring that the maximum legal transmission power of 25dBm for the LTE

bands is not exceeded.

For other countries, the customer must comply with local regulations.

Measuring device The BATLOGGER WE X is a very sensitive measuring device

and must be treated as such. In order to obtain usable and reproducible results, you

should consider some preparatory measures and familiarize yourself with the

device. Basic knowledge of bats and ultrasound is required.

Maintenance and care: Clean the unit only with a lint-free cloth and do not use any

aggressive cleaning agents. Make sure that no water penetrates into the unit.

Note on environmental protection: Electrical and electronic equipment and

batteries must not be disposed of with household waste. The consumer is legally

obliged to return electrical and electronic equipment and batteries at the end of their

service life to the public collection points set up for this purpose or to the point of

sale. Details are regulated by the respective national law. The symbol on the

product, the instructions for use or the packaging refers to these regulations. With

the recycling, material recycling or other forms of recycling of old

appliances/batteries you make an important contribution to the protection of our

environment.

2.1 General

The BATLOGGER WE X is used to record bat calls in the immediate vicinity of wind turbines

(WTG).

With a real-time recording system, the ultrasonic signal is digitized directly without modification

and at a high sampling rate. With the BATLOGGER WE X, the signal is continuously analysed

and only stored if bat activity is detected. The read data is stored in an internal RAM memory

and in a second step, based on various criteria, individual recordings (sequences) are written to

the hard disk as a file.

In addition to the bat calls, which are saved as a so-called WAVE file, other data such as time,

date, place of recording, temperature are saved in text format as an associated "*.xml" file.

In order to have an overview of the use of the BATLOGGER WE X, its operating status is

continuously written to a "LOG" file.

The BATLOGGER WE X is especially suitable for autonomous operation and long-term

monitoring.

2.2 Device variants

The BATLOGGER WE X is available in different versions, which differ in the number of

microphones.

BATLOGGER WE X1: 1 microphone

BATLOGGER WE X2: 2 microphones

BATLOGGER WE X4: 4 microphones

BATLOGGER WE X Manual © 201 Elekon AG 8/3

2.3 Data storage

The individual acoustic recordings are written to the hard disk as.wav files. For each.wav file

a.xml file is stored, which contains the set parameters, as well as date, time, position and

temperature at the time of recording. The ultrasonic data of the microphone are first written to

the internal "Random Access Memory" (RAM) of the BATLOGGER WE X. The individual

recording sequences are then automatically transferred from the RAM memory to the hard disk

after each recording.

External storage media External hard drives, USB sticks or SD cards can be

used as transport media.

Hard disks and USB sticks have higher priority when copying than SD cards. If both

a hard disk and an SD card are available for copying, the hard disk is used. If there

are several hard disks, the first hard disk/stick found is used.

The media must be formatted with FAT32 or EXT4. NTFS is currently not

supported. This is no problem for USB sticks and SD cards. However, a large hard

disk cannot be formatted with Windows FAT32 onboard tools. It requires freely

available tools which can be found on the Internet.

The external media can be plugged in or removed at any time, unless a copy

operation is in progress (green LED flashes). No explicit "ejection" is necessary.

The system does this automatically as soon as a copy operation is completed on

the external device.

3 Commissioning

Turn the unit off for commissioning/changing the microphone: Make sure that

the unit is switched off before connecting a microphone or changing the

microphone.

The unit must not be installed at a point in the WTG where water or operating

materials (such as oil) can collect.

3.1 Installation

1. To connect the components, set the ON switch to the "Off" position.

2. All status LEDs are off.

3. Connect the microphone sensor cable on the back of the unit to the "Microphone 1" input.

4. Connect the earthing socket to a suitable earthing point of the wind turbine using a

suitable cable in accordance with local regulations or, if necessary.

Prior to installation, ask the operator of the wind turbine for any applicable regulations or

grounding procedures.

5. Connect the external hard disk (optional) to a USB port on the front panel (it does not

matter whether the lower or upper USB port is used).

6. Plug in the Ethernet cable at the "1Gbit Ethernet" input. The other end of the Ethernet

cable can either be connected directly to a PC (e.g. laptop) or plugged into a switch or

router. See chapter on establishing a connection.

7. Plug the power cable into the power supply and connect the power supply to the "Power"

input on the front panel.

Protection against lightning strikes: In order to reduce the risk of electric shock

from lightning strikes, no installation or maintenance work may be carried out in the

event of an acute risk of lightning strikes (thunderstorms).

3.2 Switching on

1. After the connections have been made, the BATLOGGER can be switched on.

2. Set the on/off switch to the "On" position.

3. The BATLOGGER starts now, which takes some time. The LEDs indicate different states
