1. Des ription
The THERMO data logger monitors temperature and humidity, and transfers the
information to a secure web based database on pre-determined intervals.
Typical applications include fridges, cold rooms, air conditioned server rooms etc.
The system consists of a THERMO Unit, 1-Wire sensor(s), power supply and a web based
central database called Signal Tower. The THERMO unit can be installed in a convenient
location and the sensor(s) are positioned where critical temperature and / or humidity
measurements are to be taken.
The unit is equipped with two 1 wire sensor inputs. It can accommodate two temperature
sensors or one temperature and humidity combination sensor.
Using Signal tower, each sensor channel can be set up to record temperature or humidity
levels at configurable intervals. In addition, high and low thresholds are set up, and alarms
are sent by either or SMS and e-mail. An audible alarm is also activated on the THERMO
unit.
Other alarms include Mains Failure, Mains Restored, Battery Low, Unit Tamper, Sensor
Disconnect, Sensor Connect, etc.
The secure database is used to do all reporting, e-mailing of graphs, setting up of alarm
conditions, maintaining client and notification recipients etc.

3. Sim Card Installation
Make sure the sim card's pin code request is disabled.
The sim card must be able to send SMS messages and have Data (GPRS).
Remove the 4 grey round screw covers at the back of the unit and unscrew the 4 screws.
Remove the back cover and insert the sim card into the sim card holder on the pcb. Check
that the sim card is properly inserted.
Please make sure that the battery is connected to the provided white 3 pin connector on
the pcb before closing the unit.
Put the back cover back and close the unit using the 4 screws. Refit the grey screw covers.
Note: The unit can also use a sim chip type sim card. This must be fitted by the
manufacturer of this unit.

4. Unit Installation
Install the temperature sensors and route the wires to the Thermo unit. Label the wires
close to the connector with the input number (1 or 2) that it should be connected to and the
description of temperature being measured. E . 1 - Fridge, 2 - Freezer, 2 - Aircon 1, 1 -
Room Temp.
The sensors will take a while to reach the new environment’s temperature, so install them
first to give them time to adjust.
Put or mount the Thermo unit in the desired position and plug the power supply into a 220V
AC power source. Connect the power supply’s DC Jack to the Thermo unit. The unit will
switch on. Please see Unit Startup(Section 5) for more information.
Connect the sensor cable(s) to the unit on the unit. The top connector is for channel 1 and
the other connector is for channel 2. Temperature and humidity combination sensors can
be connected to any channel connector. These sensors use two channels on the unit and
will display the relative humidity on channel one and the temperature on channel two.

5. Unit Startup
5. Normal Startup
The unit starts with a blue screen and display THERMO startup in the first line. The unit
shows the status of the startup process and will show
THERMO Startup
Swit hing GSM ON... = GSM module is switched on
GSM ON... = GSM module is on
SIM dete ted! = Sim card has been detected
SIM registered! = Sim card has registered on the network
GSM Signal = xx% = GSM Signal strength is xx
5.2 Low Battery Startup
Battery harging If a unit starts up with this screen it means that
Please wait.... the internal battery level is too low for the unit
to work correctly. It will charge the battery up to a safe
level and will then start up. This battery charging
process can take anything from a few minutes up to 1
hour, depending on how discharged the battery is.
