5. Temperature Limits („TEMP")
The sensor is located on the PCB and thus only determines the temperature within the housing. Quick temperature
changes thus cannot be recognised since the housing of the GX111 has to heat up or cool down first.
You can set a MAX and MIN temperature value for the temperature sensor. If the MIN value is undercut or the MAX
value exceeded, an alarm message is sent to all stored phone numbers.
SET TEMP <upper threshold> <lower threshold> #1513
Upper threshold: max. 55 °C (corresponds to the standard value for the upper threshold)
Lower threshold: min. -4 °C (corresponds to the standard value for the lower threshold)
Example:
SET TEMP 20 -2 #1513
At a temperature of -3.0 °C or +21.0 °C, the GX111 will trigger an alarm.
The battery capacity very strongly depends on ambience temperature. A charge condition of the battery
that would have lasted months at 20 °C may be able to send a single text message before emergency
deactivation at 0 °C (protection of the rechargeable battery from deep discharge. Accordingly, a minimum
temperature of, e.g., 10 °C is sensible.
The electronics as such can bear higher temperatures, particularly in „OFFLINE" mode. The housing and
rechargeable battery, however, cannot bear too-high temperatures. Therefore, an alarm value of +30 °C
would be sensible.
