Introduction

CAUTION

Please note that this Introductory Manual has been written based on the

presupposition that details about set-up of any necessary equipment to

enable network connection have already been taken care of by the user and

that connection has been conrmed as workable.

T&D Corporation shall not be responsible for any damages which a contractor, a user or a

third party may suffer, whether direct or indirect, due to the inability to communicate or

use communication devices.

Further, T&D is not responsible for any damage, malfunction or trouble,

whether direct or indirect, caused by the use of our products.

This Unit has been designed for private and/or industrial use only.

It is not for use in situations where strict safety precautions are necessary

such as in connection with medical equipment, whether directly or indirectly.

Harmful gases or chemicals may cause corrosion and/or other danger to the

Unit. Also, coming in contact with hazardous substances, may cause harm to

people handling the Unit. Therefore, do not use or store the Unit in any

environment that is exposed to chemicals and/or harmful gases.

This Unit is not waterproof.

If the Unit gets dirty, wipe it with a clean cloth.

Do not store, leave, or use the Unit in any place exposed to direct sunlight,

high temperature, extremely low temperatures, or high humidity.

This may cause deformation to both the outside casing and the inside. It may also cause

condensation on the inside of the Unit leading to re or electrocution.

Battery terminals may provide insufcient contact due to age or vibration.

This may lead to data loss.

Battery terminals may provide insufcient contact due to age or vibration.

This may lead to data loss.

Battery life varies depending upon the type of battery, the measuring environment,

frequency of communication, ambient temperature in which it is used, and battery

performance.

If the Unit is not to be used for a long period of time, for safety reasons please

remove the battery.

Leaving batteries inside the Unit may cause battery leakage and malfunction.

Do not use an AC adaptor other than one that is specied for use with the

Unit.

Doing so may cause re or malfunction.

Please do not insert ngers or foreign objects into cable connection jacks.

Make sure that all cable plugs are inserted fully, so as not to cause an

improper connection. Also, when unplugging cables from the Unit, do not pull

the cord, but hold the connector to disconnect.

Introduction

Do not cut or process the cords for the AC adaptor or the communication

cables. Also, do not twist, pull on or swing any of the cords.

To prevent damage to the Unit from static electricity, remove static electricity

from your body by touching metal around you (door knob, window frame)

before touching the Unit.

Static electricity may cause not only damage to the Unit, but may cause breaks in or a

loss of data.

Do not disconnect the communication cable during wireless communication

or USB communication.

Doing so may cause adverse effects to the Unit and/or PC.

We shall not guarantee the Unit's operation if it has been connected to a PC

using a USB hub or a USB extension cable.

Do not use or store the Unit in the following places.

Doing so may cause electrocution, re and/or other adverse effects to the

Unit and/or other surrounding devices.

-Areas exposed to direct sunlight

This will cause the inside of the Unit to become overheated and may cause re,

deformation, and/or other damage including malfunction.

-Areas exposed to strong magnetic elds

This may cause damage including malfunction.

- Areas exposed to water leakage

This may cause electrocution or other damage including malfunction.

- Areas exposed to static electricity.

This may cause damage including malfunction.

- Areas exposed to excessive vibration

This may cause injury, malfunction, damage or loss of proper electrical contact.

- Areas that are not at or level

This may cause the Unit to fall and result in injury and/or damage.

- Areas near re or exposed to excessive heat

This may cause damage including malfunction and deformation.

- Areas exposed to excessive dust, dirt and smoke

This may cause damage including malfunction.

Introduction

Notes and Precautions for Installing Wireless

Communication Devices

When installing wireless communication devices take special care in selecting locations so as

to ensure proper communication.

Note that even after a successful installation, due to changes in environmental conditions,

communication errors may occur when restarting the system.

As far as possible, try to keep wireless communication devices away from metals and set

them up in high unobstructed positions.

- Please take note that in many instances, walls, oors, stairs, fences

and desks will contain metals. In order to carry out communication

between indoor and outdoor units, please locate indoor units near a

window so that radio waves can be easily transmitted.

- Please install these devices more than 30cm away from walls or boards

containing metal.

- If wireless communication units are placed in a metal container such as

a freezer or refrigerator, the possible wireless communication range will

be shortened. In most cases radio waves are transmitted via doors

and door openings so place devices as near to doors as possible.

Repeater

(RTR-500)

Place so that the antenna is

away from objects or walls.

As far as possible, keep the devices away from noise-emitting sources.

- Equipment such as some industrial instruments, electronic devices or uorescent lamps generate noise.

Please place Units more than 1 meter away from such devices.

- Please place Units more than 1 meter away from computers and other devices which emit noise.

- Keep all wires as far away from wireless communication devices as possible. Please be careful about plac-

ing near any wiring or cables such as power supply cables, telephone wires or LAN cables.

Objects which contain lots of water, such as plants or soil, absorb radio waves. We highly

recommend that such materials should not be placed between or near wireless communica-

tion Units.

- When measuring temperature in a greenhouse it has been reported that as plants grew, communication er-

rors also increased.

- Do not place Units directly on the ground.

Do not place devices which are using the same communication frequency channel in the

same area.

- If the same channel is used for multiple devices not only will more communication errors occur, but battery

life will also be shortened.

- If there is a possibility that devices with the same frequency channel will be in wireless communication at the

same time, please make sure to make changes to the frequency channels so they are not the same.

After having made an installation, check the wireless signal strength.

Checking from the software:

The supplied software application includes a feature to check for wireless signal strength. In the RTR-500DC

Settings Utility, in the [Wireless Route Settings] menu it is possible to check signal strength.

Checking from the RTR-500DC:

In the Main Menu of the RTR-500DC, open [Monitor Mode] - [Specify Remote Unit]; check the signal

strength by looking at the antenna icons displayed in the monitoring window.
