SHORT INSTRUCTION MANUAL
AFP1
Smart device for air flow, humidity and temperature
General description
Congratulations on your purchase of a ROTRONIC AFP1 device. Please read these short operating
instructions carefully before putting the unit into operation. The document is limited to the descrip-
tion of the main features and the installation of the device.
The AFP1 probe measures, along with humidity and temperature, wind speeds of 0.5 to 20 m/s.
Dimensions
Initial start-up and power supply
Before the first operation, remove the insulation sticker, which is located in the battery compart
-
ment and protects the battery against self-discharge.
The AFP1 is powered by two CR2032 button batteries. When inserting or replacing the batteries,
place them on top of each other in the battery compartment slide (observing polarity).
Device Operation via multifunction key
The AFP1 features a multifunction button, which is located on the front, above the ROTRONIC logo.
The following functions are controlled via the button:
- Switch on measure mode with auto power off after 5 minutes
- Switch on measure mode permanently
- Switch off
Home
The current measured values are displayed on the home
screen of the AFP1. Furthermore, you can reach different
sub-menus or features:
- Menu
- Device overview
- Picture mode
- Graphics mode
- Parameter settings
- Parameter units
- Data recording
AFP1 on the Smart Device
After commissioning of AFP1, the LED should light up green. The device is now switched on and
ready to perform measurements. To measure wind speeds, ensure that the wind turbine rotates
freely and the sign “AIR IN" points in the direction of the measured air flow.
Operation of the AFP1 device is done via the ROTRONIC smart-phone application “ROTRONIC” which
is available in the App Store (iOS) or in Play Store (Android) free of charge.
Use the app to display, log and send the desired measurement values by e-mail. Furthermore,
measurement-specific settings and options can be set.

may cause harmful interference to radio communications. However, there is no guarantee that
interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does cause harmful inter-
ference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off
and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one of the following measures:
- Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
- Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.
- Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver

-
terference, and (2) this device must accept any interference received, including interference that
may cause undesired operation.
IMPORTANT NOTE:
Radiation Exposure Statement:
The product complies with the US portable RF exposure limit
set forth for an uncontrolled environment and is safe for the intended operation as described in
this manual. Further RF exposure reduction can be achieved if the product can be kept as far as
possible from the user’s body or the device set to lower output power, if such function is available.
This transmitter must not be co-located or operated in conjunction with any other antenna or
transmitter.
