General

Battery

How to correctly replace (install) battery on Tempod loggers?

Why does remaining battery drop to low level or empty, or LCD display abnormally after changing battery?

Sometimes after changing or installing new battery, Tempod may not correctly recognize battery capacity, possible errors including battery indicator on LCD shows only 1 bar or even empty, or LCD displays abnormally or blank, this problem results from the power buffer system in data logger, so when it happens, please try to follow steps below to correctly install or replaceable battery and make sure logger could correctly measure battery capacity again.

 

• Remove battery from logger

• Press the View/Mark button for several times until LCD changes to BLANK (to exhaust power buffer)

• Install battery back to the logger

• Please re-program data logger if Error codes like E009 appears on LCD

Bluetooth

Please note questions in this section are only applicable to Tempod Bluetooth loggers

 

What is the range of Bluetooth Low Energy?

Low Energy Bluetooth communication range is 30 meters (sight range).

 

What is Flight Mode, and how does it work?

When Bluetooth logger enters Flight Mode, logger will turn off Bluetooth service and stops radio transmission, and meanwhile recording will not be affected. So Flight Mode is useful when using logger in environment sensitive to radio emission, like flights, and when air plane touchs down, user could turn on Bluetooth service on nearby loggers in flight mode by waking them up using TempSen Go App, then we could access loggers through Bluetooth communication again.

Not all smart phones supports Wake Up function to wake up nearby loggers in flight mode Flight mode consumes more power than normal mode, so please DO NOT use it when not necessary

AccessKey

What is AccessKey and what does it protect?

AccessKey is a device password designed to protect data logger from unauthorized programming to data logger, so once a data loger is protected with an AccessKey, user needs to provide correct AccessKey when programming this logger.

 

How can I do if I forgot AccessKey?

When you forgot AccessKey of a data logger, please send PDF report downloaded from device and other information we need to verify your information to support@tempsen.com, we will send you the AccessKey of this device by mail after we verified all information we need.
