ThermoWorks RTR-500NW/AW WIRELESS LAN OR GSM (CELLULAR) LOGGERS - Manual (Page 4)

2. Remote Unit Settings
The Remote Unit Settings screen is used to register
loggers to the system. When a logger is placed on the
500W you can set, via optical communication, the
logger recording parameters, assign it to a logical
group and give it a logical name, set the RF
communication channel, enable warning monitoring
and set the upper and lower reading limits which
trigger warnings. Every
logger that is to be monitored
or downloaded by the RTR-500NW/AW must be
registered to it using this screen.
3. Repeater Settings
If you intend to use wireless repeaters in your system
to address communication range issues you will use
this screen to register them. If not, you can skip this
section (screen) entirely. The only tricky part here is
that in order to register a repeater to your system you
will need to plug an RTR-500 into a USB port on your
PC with the Repeater Setting screen selected. You can
do this by plugging it into a 2
nd
USB port on your PC,
or by unplugging the 500W and using its USB
connection for the repeater. Once the RTR-500 is
connected click the “Register” button in the Repeater
Setting screen. Make the appropriate entries in the
pop-up window and click on Register. The repeater
will now be listed in the Repeater Settings screen.
When finished
, disconnect the RTR-500 from the
USB port and reconnect the 500W.
