ThermoWorks THERMADATA (RF) WIRELESS TEMPERATURE & DATA LOGGERS - Manuel (Page 5)

If the signal strength is weak:
• Move the base-station to a different location away from any metal objects but still
keeping it plugged into the PC.
• Raise the base-station up high to achieve a more uninterrupted ‘line of sight’ to the
RF ThermaData Loggers.
• Move the antenna from vertical to horizontal orientation by using the adjustable
hinge near its base.
• Loosen the antenna plug and rotate the antenna to a different orientation.
Retighten the plug after.
• Move the position of the RF ThermaData Logger a little at a time until the signal
improves.
PLEASE NOTE: Radio frequency waves travel in straight lines so ideally the base-station and the
ThermaData Logger should not have any large metal object in a direct line between them. To monitor
temperatures in chambers, fridges and freezers a RF ThermaData Logger with a remote probe should
be used. Place the logger on the outside of the device on the side nearest the base-station or on the
top. Place the probe inside the chamber, fridge or freezer. Brick, block and stud walls will reduce
the signal strength depending on their density. The signal should travel through two or three walls
without severe degradation of the signal.
PLEASE NOTE: This logger is fitted with a SL-750 ½ AA 3.6V Tadiran battery. Failure to use the
same type of battery will result in an error with the logger.
