The recorder uses up to three independent temperature sensors to provide added verifi cation beyond the refrigeration system's built-in recording ability. An integral thermal printer allows drivers to produce numerical and graphical trip reports quickly and easily for receivers, and data also can be downloaded into a personal computer for electronic logging. Designed for plug-and-play simplicity, the recorder auto-detects the Carrier Transicold controller for setup. Two recorder styles are off ered: body-mount models that attach to either a truck or trailer cargo area, and an in-dash version for convenient driver access.
