How to Set-Up
Tempo Anywhere does not have a power switch. It is powered-on as soon as it is plugged in to a mains
power supply. Tempo Anywhere is designed to be always on, however it uses a highly efficient ARM Cortex
chip meanings its power consumption is low.
In terms of where your Tempo Anywhere should be placed, it needs to be placed within Wi-Fi range of your
router, and within Bluetooth Low Energy range of your Blue Maestro Bluetooth Low Energy sensors and
data loggers. This is because Tempo Anywhere communicates with your router via Wi-Fi and with Blue-
tooth Low Energy devices using Bluetooth.
To determine where you are within range of your router and/or your Bluetooth Low Energy devices it is best
to use your mobile phone as a guide. In your Wi-Fi settings it will show the relative radio strength of the
Wi-Fi network that you want to connect Tempo Anywhere to. Ensure it is placed where the radio strenght
is good. Likewise use your smartphone to determine the placement of your Bluetooth Low Energy devices.
Using a Utility App that displays the RSSI (the radio strenght indicator) ensure that at your Tempo Any-
where the RSSI is a number greater than -100dBM (i.e., -80 to -98dBM is ideal).
