In this paper a portable wireless data logging system for temperature monitoring in real time process dynamics. Process variables (like temperature, pressure, flow, level) vary with time in certain applications and these variations should be recorded so that a control action can take place at a defined set point. This paper proposes a 8-bit embedded platform for a temperature sensor node having a network interface using the 802.15.4 ZigBee protocol, that is a wireless technology developed as open global standard to address the low-cost, low-power wireless sensor networks. The wireless temperature sensor node senses and transmits the variations in the local temperature to the central computing unit placed within the range. The central base station receives the data and stores it in the file and plotting the variations simultaneously.
