Configure Your Digital Temperature Sensor
Use Room Alert’s Built-In Web Interface
Navigate to
Settings
Sensors
in the web interface of your Room Alert. The options
you see below will vary depending on the model.
1. Scroll to your external digital sensor(s), the total number of which will vary depending
on the Room Alert model.
2. Find the digital sensor interface that matches the port you connected your Digital
Temperature Sensor to. For example, if you used the first digital port on your Room
Alert, look for
Sensor 1 Alarm Configuration
; if you used the second, look for
Sensor
2 Alarm Configuration
, and so on. Notice that your Room Alert monitor automatically
detects the type of digital sensor and displays it in
Sensor Type
.
3. In
Sensor X Label
, you may leave the default, “Ext Sensor X,” or enter something more
descriptive of up to 15 characters. You may use the following characters in sensor
labels: letters, numbers, spaces, hyphens (-), underscores (_) and periods (.).
4.
Alarm On
automatically populates with the default temperature scale. Please refer to
your Room Alert
User’s Guide & Reference Manual
to change it.
5. In
High
and
Low
, you may leave the default, 0—which means no alarm is configured—
or enter values for high and low thresholds. Your Room Alert generates alerts based on
those thresholds.
6. In
Adjust
, you may leave the default, 0, or enter a value to adjust the temperature
reading if it differs from a known value at that location.
7. In
Use Alarm Profile
, which controls light towers and relays on your Room Alert, you
may leave the default,
Profile 1
, or choose another profile from the drop-down menu.
