Note
: even the base unit HD35APW, with Wi-Fi and Ethernet interface, must first be connected
to the PC via USB through the CP23 cable for setting the parameters of the local network (e.g.,
for setting the IP address, for choosing the Wi-Fi or Ethernet mode, etc.).

Factory-configured system
: at startup, data loggers synchronize the clock with that of the
base unit. If the base unit is not yet connected to the power supply, the synchronization fails
and data loggers with LCD option display the clock setting window. Clock synchronization will
anyway take place automatically after connecting the base unit to the power supply. Mean-
while, data loggers start storing measurements with their date and time, not synchronized
with respect to the system measurements. If you wish to set the clock manually, see para-
graph
The menu in LCD data loggers
on page 30.
•
Not configured system
: at startup, data loggers don’t synchronize the clock with that of
the base unit. In the data loggers with LCD, the window for the clock setting is displayed.
Clock synchronization will take place automatically after network configuration (step 8), in
the meantime data loggers start storing measurements with their date and time. If you wish
to set the clock manually, see paragraph
The menu in LCD data loggers
on page 30.

CTIVATING THE
RF
STAGE IN THE DEVICES
(
DATA LOGGERS
,
REPEATERS AND ALARM MODULES
)
In the devices belonging to a factory-configured system, the RF stage is activated automati-
cally. In this case, proceed to step 9.
If the system is not factory-configured, the RF stage of the devices will have to be activated
manually by pressing the connection button for 5 seconds.
In the models in indoor-use housing, the connection button is on the front panel.
