Illuminance UV Recorder WL RTR-574 is a Data Logger, with built-in wireless communication capability, designed to
measure and record Illuminance, Ultraviolet Light, Temperature and Humidity at a set interval.
Collect the Data not the Logger: Wireless communication with a Base Unit makes it possible to download data from a RTR-574 Data Logger
(Remote Unit) without going to the location or collecting the Unit. The downloaded data can then be easily viewed in graph form and saved
on your computer to help you analyze the data and/or share over a network.
From hereafter in this manual, Illuminance UV Recorder WL RTR-574 will be referred to as the “Unit”.
As a Remote Unit, the Unit requires a Base Unit to carry out wireless communication.
(Compatible Base Units: RTR-500, RTR-500AW/RTR-500NW)
Please set it up after getting the Base Unit ready.

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 ultraviolet 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 use in any environment that is exposed to corrosive gas and 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 supplied with 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 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 using the Unit 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 use in any environment that is exposed to corrosive gas and organic solvents. Also,
do not use in areas near fire or exposed to excessive heat.
When the temperature/humidity sensor is not being used for a long period of time, please
place it in the attached vinyl bag with the drying agent included and store at room
temperature to prevent condensation.
We recommend changing the temperature/humidity sensor after about one year of use.
During use, the surface of the temperature/humidity sensor will accumulate impurities (dirt) causing a decrease
in the sensor’s accuracy and sensitivity.If the sensor is being used in an environment where smoke and dust
are in abundance, we suggest replacing the sensor even sooner.
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-5C10).
Do not cut or process the sensor cables.
Using the "Adjustment Function" in the software supplied with 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.
