Purpose-Built Interface for Safe PowerWatch Communication

The Lite-Link Interface Cable is a dedicated, optically isolated USB communication cable designed specifically for use with PowerWatch voltage disturbance loggers. It provides a safe and reliable connection between a PowerWatch device and a Windows PC running ACR EventReader software.

Because PowerWatch operates while connected directly to live electrical outlets, Lite-Link plays a critical role in maintaining user safety and protecting connected computers during configuration and data retrieval.

Why Lite-Link Is Required

PowerWatch loggers are line-powered instruments, meaning they are energized directly from the monitored electrical circuit. To safely interface with a computer, Lite-Link incorporates optical isolation, eliminating any direct electrical connection between the PowerWatch device and the PC.

This isolation:

  • Protects the computer from voltage transients or ground potential differences

  • Prevents ground loops during data transfer

  • Ensures safe communication when PowerWatch is connected to energized circuits

Lite-Link is not interchangeable with standard USB or serial cables.

What Lite-Link Allows You to Do

Lite-Link is required to:

  • Configure PowerWatch voltage, frequency, and event thresholds

  • Download recorded disturbance events

  • View and analyze data using ACR EventReader software

  • Generate summary and detailed event reports

Once configured, PowerWatch can operate independently without Lite-Link for long-term unattended monitoring.

How Lite-Link Works

  • The USB end connects to a standard USB port on a Windows PC

  • The cylindrical probe end mates with the optical interface port on the PowerWatch device

  • Data is transferred optically, maintaining full electrical isolation

No external power supply is required.

Compatibility

  • Compatible with all PowerWatch voltage disturbance loggers

  • Designed for use with ACR EventReader software

  • USB-A interface (Windows PCs)

Typical Use Scenarios

  • First-time setup and configuration of a PowerWatch device

  • Periodic data download after a monitoring period

  • Sharing a single Lite-Link cable among multiple PowerWatch units

  • Replacement cable for existing PowerWatch installations

Important Note

Lite-Link is a purpose-built interface cable engineered specifically for PowerWatch products. Standard USB cables or adapters will not function and should not be used.

Software

ACR software tools are intuitive and flexible, allowing you to easily configure ACR data loggers to collect the data you need. Once downloaded, your data is displayed in presentation-quality graphs and can be converted into popular formats for use with spreadsheet programs, document editors, and other third-party applications.
