Temperature Sensor
Sensing Operation
The following features are available depending on the RTS model. The
receiving control equipment that the sensor is linked to uses its
configurable settings and interprets messages sent by the RTS.
Solar panel
Temperature dial
Test button
Fan control
Temperature and Humidity
Monitoring
: When there is
sufficient power, 100 lux (9 fc),
the sensor records the
temperature, temperature set
point, and humidity values every
10 seconds. If the light source is
poor, the sampling interval
increases to every 100 seconds. If
a period of low light reaches 24
hours, the interval increases to
every 200 seconds.
Temperature Set Point:
Create an
offset from the temperature set
point value that is set on the
receiving controller; rotate the
dial counterclockwise to lower and clockwise to increase. The receiving
control equipment interprets the set point value to an offset range. For
no offset, point the arrow on the dial straight up.
Fan Speed C ontrol:
(RTS-2HS model only) Adjust the fan speed by
selecting a setting: A (auto), O (off), 1 (low ), 2 (med), 3 (high) for the
receiving control equipment to interpret.
Test Button:
(RTS-2HS model only) Activate an occupied room state by
pressing the
[Test]
button on the right side of the sensor. This feature
engages all of the automated settings configured for the occupied space,
such as lights and heating. The receiving control equipment determines
the settings and timers.
Transmission Rate
The RTS transmits a message when:
•
10 sample values have been recorded.
•
The fan speed switch or the
[Test]
button are used.
•
The difference from the last transmitted temperature value is greater
than 0.3°C (0.5°F).
•
The difference from the last transmitted humidity value is greater
than 3%.
