How to Install the Temperature/Humidity Sensor

1. Choose a location and install the temperature/humidity sensor. Avoid locations in direct sunlight

or other locations that may affect the sensor reading, such as near windows, room entrances, air
ducts, or other heat sources.

Note: When securing the sensor, tighten the tie wrap over the recessed channel of the
sensor casing.

Vertical rail installation. Firmly
install the sensor mount (25 x 25-mm
[1 x 1-in] cable tie mount) at the
location you selected. Then secure the
sensor with a tie wrap.

Door-mount installation. For racks
with a perforated door, use a tie wrap to
secure the sensor.

Wall-mount installation. For a rough
wall or porous surface, install the wall
anchor at the location you selected.
Then, secure the sensor mount to the wall anchor using the screw provided. For a smooth wall
or other smooth surface, firmly install the sensor mount (25 x 25-mm [1 x 1-in] cable tie
mount). Secure the sensor to the sensor mount using a tie wrap.

2. Route the sensor cord to the Rack Monitor 200.

– If you mounted the sensor on the door, be sure the door is fully open when you route the sensor

cord.

– The 4-m (13-ft) sensor cord can be extended to a maximum of 15 m (50 ft), using RJ-45

female-to-female couplings and standard CAT-5 cables.

3. Connect the sensor to the Rack Monitor 200 (see “How to Connect Sensors to Universal Sensor

Ports” on page 10).
