Automatic Data Upload to the Cloud
The auto-upload function enables TR7 series loggers to automatically upload recorded data to the free cloud storage service "T&D WebStorage Service".
The uploaded data is available for viewing from a web browser.
The factory default setting is OFF (no auto-upload). Please follow the steps below to change the setting.

.
Set your wireless LAN access point to "WPS"
mode.
For details about Wireless LAN Access Point settings, refer to the user manual for
that access point.
.
When the setup is successfully completed, the
mark on the LCD display
will turn ON.

Viewing Recorded Data
In order to view the recorded data on a web browser, it is necessary to register
devices to T&D WebStorage Service in advance.
.
Access "T&D WebStorage Service" from the web browser.
https://www.webstorage-service.com/
.
Click [Create Account] to go to the registration page, and follow the direc-
tions to complete the registration. If you already have your User ID, go to the
next step.
.
Login by entering the registered User ID and Password.
.
Click [Devices] in the left menu to open the Device Settings window.
.
Clicking the [+Device] button will take you to the Add a Device page.
.
Enter the serial number and registration code* for the target logger, then
click [Add].
* The registration code can be found on the supplied Registration Code Label.
.
After data is sent to either by auto-upload or by pressing the <REC/STOP>
button on the logger, the added device and its measurements will appear in
the [Data View] window.
Troubleshooting Tips
If measurements are not displayed:
Check the screen of the logger and make sure
is ON; If not, press-and-hold
<REC/STOP> to start recording. See “Recording Interval Setting above.
If the display of measurements is not refreshed:
Try making the recording interval shorter. If the recording interval is set to longer
than the upload interval, the same measurement is displayed until the next
recording occurs and the new data is uploaded.
If you lose your registration code label:
Open the software "TR7 for Windows" and connect your logger via USB to the
computer. The connected logger and its information will appear in the left boxes of
the main window. The registration code can be found here.
If you wish to save recorded data to PC:
Use "T&D Graph" that is available for download from the T&D Website.
See
on the reverse side.
Changing Device Settings
It is possible to change device settings by using "T&D WebStorage Service".
In the Device Settings window click the [Settings] button to open the settings box.
Make the necessary changes and click [Send Settings].
The setting changes will not be actually applied until communication occurs be-
tween the logger and "T&D WebStorage Service". By pressing the <REC/STOP>
button on the logger, however, settings can be applied immediately.
