HOBO® External Temp/RH Data Logger (UX100-023) Manual 

The HOBO External Temp/RH data logger records temperature and relative humidity in an indoor 
environment with its external sensor. Using HOBOware®, you can easily configure the logger 
alarm to trip for specific high or low sensor readings. Or, you can set up burst logging in which the 
logger records data at a different interval during certain conditions. The logger can also calculate 
minimum, maximum, average, and standard deviation statistics. This compact data logger has a 
built-in LCD screen to monitor the current temperature, relative humidity, logging status, battery 
use, and memory consumption in between readouts.
