the logger is downloaded to your mobile device. Once the 
logger has been downloaded, the LCD will turn off 
automatically after 2 hours. The LCD will turn back on the next 
time the logger connects with your device. 

Getting Started 

InTempConnect is web-based software where you can monitor 
logger configurations and view downloaded data online. Using 
the InTemp app, you can configure the logger with your phone 
or tablet and then download reports, which are saved in the 
app and automatically uploaded to InTempConnect. The 
CX5000 Gateway is also available to automatically configure 
and download loggers and upload data to InTempConnect (see 
www.intempconnect.com/help for details). If you do not need 
to access logged data via the cloud-based InTempConnect 
software, then you also have the option to use the logger with 
the InTemp app only. 

Follow these steps to begin using the loggers with 
InTempConnect and the InTemp app. 

1.

Administrators:

Set up an InTempConnect account

. Follow 

all steps if you are a new administrator. If you already have 
an account and roles assigned, follow steps c and d.

If you are using the logger with the InTemp app only, skip 
to step 2. 

a.

Go to www.intempconnect.com and follow the prompts 
to set up an administrator account. You’ll receive an 
email to activate the account. 

b.

Log into www.intempconnect.com and add roles for the 
users you will be adding to the account. Click Settings 
and then Roles. Click Add Role, enter a description, 
select the privileges for the role and click Save. 

c.

Click Settings and then Users to add users to your 
account. Click Add User and enter the email address and 
first and last name of the user. Select the roles for the 
user and click Save. 

d.

New users will receive an email to activate their user 
accounts. 

2.

Set up the logger.

 Insert two AAA batteries in the logger, 

observing polarity. Insert the battery door in the back of the 
logger making sure it is flush with the rest of the logger 
case. Use the included screw and a Phillips-head 
screwdriver to screw the battery door into place.

3.

Download the InTemp app and log in. 

a.

Download InTemp to a phone or tablet from the App 
Store® or Google Play™. 

b.

Open the app and enable Bluetooth in the device settings 
if prompted. 

c.

InTempConnect users:

 Log in with your InTempConnect 

user credentials. (Your device must be able to connect to 
the internet.) Make sure to check the box that says “I am 
an InTempConnect user” when signing in. 

InTemp app only users:

 If you will not be using 

InTempConnect, create a user account and log in when 
prompted. DO NOT check the box that says “I am an 
InTempConnect user” when signing in. 

4.

Configure the logger

.

InTempConnect users: 

Configuring the logger requires 

privileges. The logger includes preset profiles. 

Administrators or those with the required privileges can 
also set up custom profiles (including setting up daily logger 
checks) and trip information fields. This should be done 
before configuring the logger.  

InTemp app only users:

 The logger includes preset profiles. 

To set up a custom profile, tap the Settings icon and tap 
CX400 Logger. Also, if you need to perform daily logger 
checks, tap Record CX400 Logger Checks under Settings and 
select Once Daily or Twice Daily. This should be done before 
configuring the logger. 

See www.intempconnect.com/help for details on setting up 
custom profiles in both the app and InTempConnect and on 
setting up trip information. 

a.

Tap the Devices icon in the app. Find the logger in the list 
and tap it to connect to it. 

If you are having trouble connecting: 

•

Make sure the logger is within range of your mobile 
device. The range for successful wireless 
communication is approximately 30.5 m (100 ft) with 
full line-of-sight. 

•

If your device can connect to the logger intermittently 
or loses its connection, move closer to the logger, 
within sight if possible. 

•

Change the orientation of your phone or tablet to 
ensure the antenna in your device is pointed toward 
the logger. Obstacles between the antenna in the 
device and the logger may result in intermittent 
connections. 

•

If the logger appears in the list, but you cannot connect 
to it, close the app, power down the mobile device, 
and then turn it back on. This forces the previous 
Bluetooth connection to close. 

b.

Once connected, tap Configure. Swipe left and right to 
select a logger profile. Type a name or label for the 
logger. Tap Start to load the selected profile to the 
logger. 

InTempConnect users:

 If trip information fields 

were set up, you will be prompted to enter additional 
information. Tap Start in the upper right corner when 
done. 

5.

Deploy and start the logger

. Deploy the logger to the 

location where you will be monitoring the temperature. 
Logging will begin based on the settings in the profile 
selected. If the logger was configured to perform daily 
checks, connect to the logger and tap Perform (Morning, 
Afternoon, or Daily) Check every day.

Once logging begins, the logger will display the current 
temperature reading and the minimum and maximum readings 
within the current 24-hour period (midnight from one day to 
midnight the next day) if the logger was set to record logger 
checks (see 

Performing Logger Checks

). Otherwise the 

minimum and maximum readings represent the entire logging 
period and only reset when the logger is downloaded and 
restarted or stopped and reconfigured (they will not reset if you 
download the logger and continue logging). These minimum 
and maximum values are also available in the logger reports 
(see 

Downloading the Loggers

). Click Next to switch between 

external probe and ambient temperature readings. Minimum 
and maximum readings are only available for the external 
probe.
