Chapter 5 General specifications

5.7 Intended use

The measurement instrument is designed to record fill levels. The device is battery-operated. The measured
and recorded data is stored on a non-volatile memory medium. The saved data can either be sent to a central
server via the mobile network for further processing or transferred to a PC via a Bluetooth connection
(Bluetooth Low Energy). Using the software provided by the manufacturer, the data can then be transferred
from the PC to a central server. The device is equipped with an integrated SIM chip for establishing a mobile
connection. The maximum permissible limit values (specified in chapter "Specifications" on page 21) must be
observed. The manufacturer shall not be liable for any operational cases that deviate from these limit values
and have not been approved by the manufacturer in writing.

Note:

This device is exclusively intended to be used for the purposes as described before. Any other

use or use beyond what is specified or a modification of the device shall be deemed to be not for the
intended purpose and is not permitted without the express written consent of the manufacturer. The
manufacturer shall not be held liable for any damages that may result from such unauthorised use or
modification. The operator alone bears the associated risk.

Note:

The manufacturer is not liable for data loss of any kind.

Note:

The integrated SIM chip provides a mobile communications connection to a variety of

international service providers. In order to be able to utilise all functions of the device, you must
ensure that the device is located in the service area of one of these service providers. You can find a
list of all supported countries and associated service providers under
www.microtronics.com/footprint. A Managed Service contract with Microtronics Engineering GmbH
is required for use of the mobile data transmission (see www.microtronics.com/managedservice).
This includes the provisioning of the mobile communications connection via the network of the service
provider included in the above-mentioned list.

5.8 General product information

The device is a compact, battery-operated, stationary system for recording and transferring fill levels. The
myDatalogGauge 3G consists of the "BLE & 3G Gateway ATEX " data logger and up to 2 BLE Gauge sensor
modules with a pressure sensor for the fill level measurement of fresh, waste and grey water. Communication
between the BLE Gauge sensor modules and the BLE & 3G Gateway ATEX is realised via a Bluetooth
connection (Bluetooth Low Energy). The bridgeable distance can be up to 20m depending on the ambient
conditions. The capacity of the battery installed in the sensor module is designed for a max. service life of 5
years. In addition to the fill level (installation height and trimming are taken into consideration), the internal
measurement values "PowerOn Flag Sensor" (sensor status), "Battery Sensor", "Temp Sensor" and
"Service Sensor" (remaining days until the next battery replacement) are determined for each of the sensor
modules (see "Internal channels" on page 86). In addition, the internal measurement values "SOC"(State of
Charge), "Battery", "Int. Temp", "rH" (relative air humidity in the enclosure), "GSM" (GSM level), "Service"
(remaining days until battery replacement) and "Load" (energy consumption between two recordings) of the
BLE & 3G Gateway ATEX are recorded (see "Internal channels" on page 86). The measurement data is
recorded at an adjustable interval (see "Basic settings" on page 92) and is temporarily saved in an internal
data memory. The recorded data can be read out locally via a Bluetooth connection (Bluetooth Low Energy)
or transferred automatically at a freely selected interval to a central myDatanet server via a mobile
connection. The device is equipped with an integrated SIM chip for this purpose. The DeviceConfig
configuration program (see "DeviceConfig " on page 101) provided by the manufacturer and the USB BLE-
Adapter (300685) included in the scope of delivery or a Bluetooth Low Energy compatible smartphone and
the "tbd" smartphone app are required to read out the data via a Bluetooth connection. Both the DeviceConfig
