The HOBO RX3000 RXW Manager is a module and mote designed to work with the HOBOnet
Wireless Sensor Network. When the RXW Manager module is installed in an RX3000 station, data
is transmitted wirelessly from sensor motes across the network to the RX3000 station and then
uploaded to HOBOlink® web-based software. You can use HOBOlink to monitor the network, view
graphs, set up alarms, download data, and more.
