- The DicksonOne Mapping Suite will open.
To create a new study, the following steps must be completed:
- Create Study: define study parameters
- Create space: define the location to be mapped
- Add Data Loggers: assign loggers to be used in the study
- Add Schematic: image of mapped space with loggers mapped
- Run Study and Generate Report
DŮLEŽITÉ: It is critical to ensure the loggers have enough time to receive study settings before the
study starts (name, sample interval, unit of measure, study start time). Ensure the study enters the PENDING state at least 15 minutes before the scheduled start time. Confirm all loggers display the new study name. If a logger does not display the new study name, press the transmit button (on the
right side of the logger, below the power button) for one second. Within 1 minute, the logger should display the assigned study name. If releasing and associating the loggers with a study, give the
loggers 30 minutes to receive the release packet and new study packet.
Step 1: Start a New Study
- From the Mapping Studies menu option, click Create Study

- Fill in the required fields:
a) Study Name
b) Customer Name
c) Project ID (internal identifier or auto-generate)
d) Sales Order # (not required)
e) Time Zone
f) Start and End Date/Time
i) Actual Study Time is calculated at the conclusion of the study (Note: Planned Study
Time: When the study is scheduled to run. Actual Study Time: When the study actually starts—this only begins if all required elements are correctly configured.)
g) Data Logger Properties
i) Sample Interval (e.g., every 60 seconds)
ii) Temperature Units (Fahrenheit or Celsius)
(a) Study Configuration
iii) Temperature Ranges (Low, High, Expected)
iv) Relative Humidity (optional)
v) Standards Followed (e.g., WHO, SOP reference)
h) Click Create Study at the bottom of the page to save. The Study will now appear on the Mapping Studies page. Status will be set to Draft
Step 2: Create Spaces
Space = the area being mapped.
- On the Mapping Studies page, click on the Mapping Study just created (will display as a draft)
- Click on + Create Space in the upper right corner

- Complete the Create Space form
a) Space Name: enter a name for the space to be mapped
b) Space Code: Enter a two-character code (alpha/numeric). This code is used to identify loggers included in the study – the code will display on the logger display.
c) Space Type: Select an existing space type or select Custom to create a new space type
d) Number of Planes: Up to 5 planes can be selected. This refers to the number of horizontal planes. For example, when mapping a warehouse, loggers may be placed throughout the space at a low tier, mid-tier, and high tier. In this scenario, Planes = 3. The logger ID will reference the plane it should be placed on.
e) Planned Logging Time, Data Logger Properties and Logging Parameters will default to the selected Study configuration. Uncheck the box next to each section to modify the configuration
f) Click Create Space, at the bottom of the page, to save Space configuration
g) The Space will now appear and is associated with the Study

Step 3: Assign Data Loggers
Select the dataloggers to be used in the study from the available datalogger pool
- From the Mapping Studies page, select the mapping study and click on Add Data Logger(s) in the upper right corner
NOTE: If more than one Space is associated with the Stud,y the logger will be paired to the space in Step 4 when the loggers are associated to the Study/Space/Schematic. At this point, the loggers are simply associated to the Study.
- Click on the Add Data Loggers button in the upper right
- A list of available data loggers will appear. Check the box next to the loggers you wish to use in the mapping study and click Attach to Study (lower right).
a) Only loggers with a Status equal to Available can be added to a new study. Loggers associated with a pending or recent study can not be selected
b) To view logger status, click on Manage Hardware in the menu on the left. - Loggers will move to an “In Use” state and will not be available to use in other studies.
Note: Logger can be removed from a study by checking the box next to the logger and clicking on Remove from Study
Step 4: Upload Schematic and Place Loggers
- From the Mapping Studies page, click on the study to select and click the three vertical dots to the right of the associated Space Name

- Click Add Schematic.
a) Select the 2D or 3D View
b) Click Continue in the lower-right corner
c) Upload the study location schematic (drag and drop or click Browse to load). Image file formats allowed = .PNG, .JPEG, .PDF
d) Click Continue on the lower right - Place Logger Pins
a) Pins: Each logger corresponds to a pin, e.g., Pin 1 → Logger A, Pin 2 → Logger B. The schematic helps field techs know exactly where each logger goes. The label displayed on the schematic matches a label on the logger display (e.g., “EX-01”)
b) Two options:
i) Bulk Placement – drop multiple pins at once
ii) Single Placement – place each logger individually
c) Click on Generate Schematic in the lower right corner. The schematic will appear with Loggers auto-assigned to locations within the space
d) Additional details can be added to the Schematic:
i) Horizontal Placement
ii) Vertical Placement
iii) Space Information
iv) Comments

Running the Study and Understanding Statuses
The study will start automatically based on the assigned start time.
- Status Progression
a) Draft – Not ready to run
b) Pending – Ready to go, waiting for scheduled start
c) Active – Currently running
d) Completed – Finished as scheduled
e) Terminated – Stopped early by the user - Once a study status = Complete, open the study and click + Create Report Confirm by clicking
Create a Report in the pop-up window - Configure Report- the following report options can be changed
a) Report Name
b) Report Formatting
c) Page Number Start
d) Include Initials
e) Include Signatures
f) Confidentiality Note
g) Revision Number
h) Language (currently limited to English)
i) Date/Time Format
j) Protect PDF

Logger Status Meanings
v) Available: Ready to be added to a study
vi) In Use: Assigned to an active or pending study
vii) Completed: Study has ended, but the logger is still attached
viii) Terminated: Study was cancelled; logger may be available again
- Study didn’t start:
o Double-check that all loggers are attached and no configuration steps were missed. - Start delayed:
o The actual study start time is based on when setup was completed, not when it was planned. - Přehled nejdůležitějších věcí
o Space Test Results (min/max/mean/MKT)
o Logger Compliance
o Data Gaps (Loggers missing >1% data are excluded)
o Table of Contents
o Signatures (number based on selection)
o Article 7: Releasing Data Loggers
o Step-by-Step: Releasing Loggers
o Open a Completed or Terminated study.
o Click Release Data Loggers.
o Confirm. The loggers return to the Available pool.
o Tip: Don’t forget to release loggers after every study. They stay attached even after the study ends until you release them manually.
FAQs and Tips
- What file types are supported for schematics?
o JPEG, PNG, and PDF are supported for upload. - Can I add comments or notes?
o Yes. When generating a report, use the Comments field to add notes (e.g., “Fridge 1 was 75% full”). - Can I include a photo of the space?
o Yes. Upload it as a schematic or include it in a study space for reference. - What happens if a logger misses data?
o If a logger misses more than 1% of expected readings, it’s excluded from the final report graphs and calculations.
o This helps prevent skewing data with incomplete results. - Do loggers keep recording after a study ends?
o Yes, but that data is not included in the completed study’s report. Only data between the start and end times is used. - What are the minimum requirements to start a study?
o A study must be created.
o Loggers must be attached.
o All required settings must be configured. - Can I limit the study data included in the study reports?
o In this case, you may want to limit data included in the study to eliminate data saved before a location has stabilized.
o Before running the report, open the study Settings page and update the Actual Study Time Start and or End date/time to reflect the data to be included in the study. Save and run the report.
o The study will only include data saved during the new Actual Study Time range.
o A report can be rerun multiple times for the same report.
o NOTE: data is limited to data saved per the preset Planned Study Time.
