HOBO® MX Temp/RH Data Logger (MX1101) Manual 

17840-S 

The HOBO MX Temp/RH data logger records and transmits temperature and relative humidity 
(RH) in indoor environments with its integrated sensors. This Bluetooth® Low Energy-enabled 
logger is designed for wireless communication with a mobile device. Using the HOBOconnect™ 
app, you can easily configure the logger, read it out, and view data on your phone or tablet, or 
export the data for further analysis. The logger can calculate minimum, maximum, average, and 
standard deviation statistics and be configured to trip audible or visual alarms at thresholds you 
specify. The logger also supports burst logging in which data is logged at a different interval 
when sensor readings are above or below certain limits. This compact data logger also has a 
built-in LCD screen to display the current temperature, relative humidity, logging status, battery 
use, memory consumption, and more. 

Specifications 

Temperature Sensor 

 

Range 

-20° to 70°C (-4° to 158°F) 

Accuracy 

±0.21°C from 0° to 50°C (±0.38°F from 32° to 122°F), see Plot A 

Resolution 

0.024°C at 25°C (0.04°F at 77°F), see Plot A 

Drift 

<0.1°C (0.18°F) per year 

RH Sensor* 

 

Range 

1% to 90% (non-condensing) 

Accuracy 

±2% from 20% to 80% typical to a maximum of ±4.5% including 
hysteresis at 25°C (77°F); below 20% and above 80% ±6% typical 

Resolution 

0.01% 

Drift 

<1% per year typical 

Response Time 

 

Temperature 

7:30 minutes in air moving 1 m/s (2.2 mph) 

RH 

20 seconds to 90% in airflow of 1 m/s (2.2 mph) 

Logger 

 

Radio Power 

1 mW (0 dBm) 

Transmission Range 

Approximately 30.5 m (100 ft) line-of-sight 

Wireless Data Standard 

Bluetooth Low Energy (Bluetooth Smart) 

Logger Operating Range 

-20° to 70°C (-4° to 158°F); 0 to 95% RH (non-condensing) 

Logging Rate 

1 second to 18 hours 

Logging Modes 

Fixed interval (normal, statistics) or burst 

Memory Modes 

Wrap when full or stop when full 

Start Modes 

Immediate, push button, date & time, or next interval 

Stop Modes 

When memory full, push button, date & time, or after a set logging 
period 

Restart Mode 

Push button 

Time Accuracy 

±1 minute per month at 25°C (77°F), see Plot B 

Battery Life 

1 year, typical with logging interval of 1 minute. Faster logging and/or 
statistics sampling intervals, entering burst logging mode, and 
remaining connected with the app will impact battery life. Excessive 
readouts, audible alarms, and paging all impact battery life. Visual 
alarms and other events can have a marginal impact on battery life. 

Battery Type 

Two AAA 1.5 V alkaline batteries, user replaceable 

Memory 

128 KB (84,650 measurements, maximum) 

Full Memory Download Time 

Approximately 60 seconds; may take longer the further the device is 
from the logger
