1.0 Introduction
Congratulations on your purchase of the BIOS Professional Wireless HACCP
Temperature Monitor. This unit was designed with food safety and convenience
in mind.
Monitoring temperature of hot and cold foods throughout the day can be time
consuming and costly. This unit does all of the work, with accurate and precise
readings stored so that data can be uploaded onto a personal computer, and kept
for future reference.
NOTE: This system is for equipment testing only, and not for food temperature
monitoring.

1.2 Features
The BIOS Professional Wireless HACCP Temperature Manager is a wireless
digital temperature device which is capable of reading, displaying and monitoring
current temperatures from up to 30 temperature sensors. These long range
sensors can transmit data through floors and from “out of sight” storage areas.
Aside from current temperatures, the monitor’s LCD screen displays a real time
clock and calendar, as well as maximum and minimum pre-set temperature
settings.
An audible alarm sounds when temperatures fall out of the pre-programmed
range. In addition to the audio alert, green and red LED lights indicate
temperature status for each sensor. The delay function defers the alarm for a user
specified period of 0, 15, 30, 45 or 60 minutes.
Every 15 minutes, PC uploadable temperature data for each sensor is logged.
Logged data is retrieved through the USB port and PC download software, as
provided.

6.0 Registering Temperature Sensors to Monitor
By registering each sensor to the monitor, you ensure that no cross
communication will occur. Each sensor will act independently to communicate its
temperature to the monitor.
NOTE: Ensure probe is fully inserted in sensor before registering. If using
extension cord, ensure cord is inserted in sensor and probe is inserted in the
extensioncord.Removethebackpanel(usingthescrewdriverprovided)fromall
sensors that will be registered before starting registration.

battery back into the battery compartment. You will hear a beep. Continue to
hold the MUTE/SLEEP button while the beep sounds. Let go of button
after beep stops.
6. You will then see (- -) in the sensor display instead of a sensor number. When
the dashes are displayed the sensor has been de-registered successfully.
NOTE: If you are not going to re-register a sensor, remove all batteries.
Sensor will then be ready for registration when required.
8.0 Max/Min Temperature Setting
You can set each sensor with a maximum and minimum temperature alarm.
Once a sensor falls out of the programmed range, both the sensor and monitor
will beep. A red light will flash on the monitor to indicate which sensor is out of
range.

7. Repeatsteps3through6toadjusttheminimum/maximumtemperaturelimits
for other sensors.
8. Press and hold MODE/SET to exit temp setting mode.
* Press and hold or arrow for fast increment and decrement
9.0 Alarm delay operation
Users have the option of setting an alarm delay, so that once temperature falls
out of the programmed range, a timer will start counting down and the audio
alarm will not sound. If the temperature does not go back into the programmed
temperature range within the pre-set delay period, the alarm will sound once the
timerhitszero.Thisallowsfortemporaryuctuations.
1. Press the DELAY key on the sensor to toggle between 0, 15, 30, 45 and 60
minutes. Select the delay time desired, display will show the delay time and
confirm automatically after 5 seconds.
2. When sensor detects temperature has exceeded the programmed range, the
delay timer is triggered and begins counting down. The audio alarm will not
be triggered within the delay period.
3. Sensor will show “dE” by flashing every 0.5 seconds to indicate the delay
function is running. If temperature continues to exceed set range after the
delay period (e.g. 31 min), the alarm will sound on monitor and sensor.
NOTE: Once alarm is triggered, the red LED on the sensor will flash every
second for the first 2 minutes, and every 5 seconds after.
4. If temperature resumes within the programmed range during the delay period,
it will stop the delay timer immediately.
NOTE: Monitor will show “dE” when temperature exceeds set range so that
the user will know the delay period is running. Green LED will still flash to
show the operation is fine. If temperature continues to exceed set range after
the delay period (e.g. 31 min), monitor will show “Low” or “Hi” and red LED
will flash to indicate temperature is out of range.
