Wireless Reception
The unit requires a WiFi signal in order to operate wirelessly.
The antenna should be oriented in a vertical position perpendicular to the
horizon.
We recommend that the antenna remain connected during operation. In order
to disconnect the antenna, the device should first be powered down. If a signal
is unavailable in the desired installation area, try moving the base unit to a
different location (e.g. higher, away from large objects, etc.) within the length
of the sensor cables to see if the WiFi connection improves. If the WiFi
connection does not improve you have two options: (1) you can configure the
device to communicate via the built-in wired Ethernet port, or (2) you can
order a custom sensor cable length up to 300 feet (100 meters) from
Temperature@lert.
Powering the Unit
We recommend the unit be connected to an uninterruptable power supply
(UPS) or battery backup. If power to the device is lost, temperature readings in
memory will be lost and the device will not be able to record temperatures
and send alarms.
We recommend disconnecting power for 10 seconds or more before powering
up the device again.
