Illuminance UV Recorder WL RTR-574 is a Data Logger, with built-in wireless communication capability, designed to measure and record
Illuminance, UV Intensity, Temperature and Humidity at a set interval.
Recorded data can be downloaded from an RTR-574 Data Logger (Remote Unit) via wireless communication with a Base Unit; that data can then be viewed
in a graph and/or saved to PC for analysis or sharing over a network.
As a Remote Unit, RTR-574 requires a Base Unit to carry out wireless communication.
(Compatible Base Units: RTR500BC, RTR500BW, RTR500BM, RTR-500, RTR-500NW, RTR-500AW, RTR-500DC, RTR-500MBS-A)
Before using an RTR-574, it is first necessary to install the USB Device Driver from the software that comes with the Base Unit.
From hereafter in this manual, Illuminance UV Recorder WL RTR-574 will be referred to as the "Unit".

high humidity.
If the Unit is not to be used for a long period of time, store it in a place with a
normal temperature and without condensation with other items included.
Do not disconnect the communication cable during USB communication.
This may harmfully effect the Unit or your PC.
We shall not guarantee the operation of our device if you have connected it
to your computer using a USB hub or a USB extension cable.
Please do not insert your fingers or any foreign objects into the sensor or
USB connection jacks.
Do not use or store the Unit in any of the following places. Doing so may
cause electrocution, fire and/or other adverse effects to the device and/or
your computer.
-Areas exposed to direct sunlight
This will cause the inside of the Unit to become overheated and may cause fire,
deformation, and/or
other damage including malfunction.
-Areas prone to strong magnetic fields
This may cause damage including malfunction.
- Areas exposed to water leakage
This may cause electrocution or other damage including malfunction.
- Areas exposed to excessive vibration
This may cause injury, malfunction, damage or loss of proper electrical contact.
- Areas near fire or exposed to excessive heat
This may cause damage including malfunction and deformation.
-Areas prone to dust and dirt
This may cause damage including malfunction.
Cautions about using the Illuminance UV Sensors
Do not connect the ISA-3151 sensor to any data logger other than those
specified by T&D Corporation.
Use the Unit in an environment within the operational range.
When measuring UV light or other light which may cause damage or injury to
your eyes or skin make sure to use protection such as safety glasses or some
type of light-proof shield.
Do not expose the sensor to a strong impact.
Cracks or scratches in the Illuminance sensor and / or in the UV sensor will adversely
affect the measurement accuracy. Also, a broken sensor may result in injury.
This sensor is not waterproof. By all means do not allow it to get wet.
Do not expose to condensation, dampness, corrosive gases or organic
solvents. Also, do not use in areas near fire or exposed to excessive heat.
When the Illuminance UV sensor is not being used, please store at room
temperature to prevent condensation.
If the sensor surface gets dirty, wipe it with a soft cloth.
If the sensor surface accumulates impurities (dirt), it will cause a decrease in the
sensor’s accuracy and sensitivity.
If you wish to extend the length of the sensor cable, please purchase and use
our optional sensor extension cable (TR-1C30 / TR-5C10).
Do not cut or process the sensor cables.
Using the "Adjustment Function" in the software for the Base Unit, it is
possible to make desired adjustment settings to a sensor; these settings are
saved directly into the sensor itself.Therefore, when a sensor is replaced, it is
necessary to re-make any desired adjustment settings to be saved into the
newly connected sensor.
Cautions about using the Temperature-Humidity Sensors
Do not connect the THA-3001/3151 sensor to any data logger other than
those specified by T&D Corporation.
Use the Unit in an environment within the operational range.
When using the THA-3001/3151 sensor in an environment where the
humidity is less than 30%RH, the measurements may sometimes fluctuate.
This is not abnormal.
If extremely severe temperature changes occur, the humidity measurements
may appear abnormal.
Once the sensor's temperature becomes stable, the measurements will return to
normal.
This sensor is not waterproof.
Only use in an environment where there is no condensation or possibility of
becoming wet. Do not use in water or near areas where high-pressure water is
flowing.
Do not expose to condensation, dampness, corrosive gases, or organic
solvents.
When the sensor is not to be used for a long period of time, please store it at
normal temperature and humidity.
During use, the surface of the temperature - humidity sensor will accumulate
impurities (dirt) causing a ecrease in the sensor’s accuracy and sensitivity. If the
sensor is being used in an environment where smoke and dust are in abundance,
periodic calibration may be required.
Do not use this sensor on a human body.
If you wish to extend the length of the sensor cable, please purchase and use
our optional sensor extension cable (TR-1C30 / TR-6C10).
Do not cut or process the sensor cables.
Using the "Adjustment Function" in the software for the Base Unit, it is
possible to make desired adjustment settings to a sensor; these settings are
saved directly into the sensor itself.Therefore, when a sensor is replaced, it is
necessary to re-make any desired adjustment settings to be saved into the
newly connected sensor.
