For example, the RTR-61 reads 0 C when the standard thermometer reads 0.1 C, and RTR-61 reads 10 C when the standard says the true measurement is 10.2 C. In this case the slope (a) is 10.2-0.4/10-0=0.98. The offset is 0.4, so the conversion equation...

Page 132 Q.6 Because of some other [Communication Error] communication cannot occur. Why? One of the following may be the reason: - The IP Block setting is ON and communication can occur with only specific PC's. - If after several attempts a communication error continues to occur, turn OFF the RTR-5W and restart.
Page 133: Q&A
Q&A Q&A about RTR-5W Q.1 RTR-5W units use an AC adaptor, what happens when there is power shortage? During a power shortage the Web Server will not function and communication via LAN cannot occur. Q.2 Can I connect directly to my computer with the LAN cable that comes with the logger ? To connect a RTR-5W logger directly to your computer, you must use a cross LAN cable.
Page 134: Q&A About Networks
Q&A about Networks Q.1 What is a network ? A network is a system in which a group of computers are connected by cable (copper wire, optical fiber, etc), infrared ray, radio waves or other means in order to share and exchange information. There are basically two types of computer networks.
Page 135 An IP address is made up of the network address to which the computer belongs (network address) and the computer's own address within the network (host address). The Subnet mask determines the division between these. Network Address Host Address IP Address 255.
Page 136 Q.6 What is a port number ? When using TCP/IP communication with a LAN cable or via a phone line, port numbers are assigned to distinguish one application from another. Port numbers can be assigned from 0 to 65535. The numbers 0 to 1023 are already reserved to communication services and are referred to as "Well Known Port Numbers".
Page 137: Q&A About The Internet
Q&A about the Internet Q.1 What is a fixed IP address? Usually, when you connect to the Internet, the provider with which you have contracted service automatically assigns an IP address which may be different each time you connect, or may change after a certain length of time. With this type of changing IP address, it is more difficult for outsiders to illegally enter your computer.
Page 138 Q.4 I want to use a URL without a fixed IP address, how can I do that? If you wish to access an RTR-5W by URL but without a fixed IP address, it is possible to use a dynamic DNS. The DNS or Domain Name Server helps to switch difficult to understand IP address of just numbers, such as "61.197.203.107"...

- Also, it is possible to view the remaining battery level in the [Get Remote Unit Info] ( "Communication" Menu) in "RTR-61 for Windows" . (See page 99 for details) If the remaining battery level falls below 20%, please change the batteries.
Page 140 Q.2 The Remote Unit does not appear in the Remote Unit List. What should I do? The cause is probably because Registration Settings for the Remote Unit have not been properly made under "RTR-61 Registration". Please register the Remote Unit using "RTR-61 Registration". Q.3 The Remote Measurement Command cannot be sent. Why? A multiple number of Remote Units may have been selected and/or the gathering of an Item Table may have not been carried out by the Remote Unit.
