Installation and Operation Instructions for the Wireless Counter/Temperature.

Point Six, Inc.

Wireless Counter/Temperature Sensor

Model Point Sensor Counter/Temperature

Installation and Operation Instructions

The Point Sensor Counter/Temperature sensor transmits a digital temperature, relative-

humidity (or light level) and a unique serial number to a 418 MHz receiver. The Point

Sensor Counter/Temperature is enclosed in a high impact ABS enclosure for direct

surface mounting in the environment to be measured. The Point Sensor

Counter/Temperature is battery operated.

Application: Apply the sensor to the surface to be monitored with double-sided

adhesive tape. Make sure that the side labeled with FCC ID is visible and away from any

metal surfaces.

Service Function: The wireless sensor has an installation mode switch. A momentary

push of this switch will start the convert/transmit cycles. When new and until this button

is pushed the Point Sensor Counter/Temperature will not transmit. The Point Sensor

Counter/Temperature will transmit a special installation status mark in the data packet

immediately after the installation/start switch is pushed. After the start a push of the

installation switch will result in the immediate transmission of temperature, counter, ID

and installation status mark.

Battery: A 3.6 Volt lithium battery powers the Point Sensor Counter/Temperature

wireless sensor. The battery will last for more than 10 years in the idle state (as shipped

from the manufacturer). The Point Sensor Counter/Temperature will transmit data for as

long as 5 years at a rate of once each minute once started. The Point Sensor

Counter/Temperature is completely covered with a water resistant conformal coating to

protect the electronics from the environment and condensation. The user can replace the

battery. The Point Sensor Counter/Temperature may be placed in a quiescent state

(battery life greater than 10 years) by holding the installation switch closed for more than

4 seconds.
