Configuring The Logger - Hobo TidbiT MX Temp 400 Manual

• Make sure the logger is within range of your mobile
device. The range for successful wireless communication
in air is approximately 30.5 m (100 ft) with full line-of-
sight.
• Change the orientation of your phone or tablet to ensure
the antenna in your device is pointed toward the logger.
Obstacles between the antenna in the device and the
logger may result in intermittent connections.
• If the logger is in water and configured with Bluetooth
Off Water Detect, you must remove the logger from the
water to connect to it.
• If your device can connect to the logger intermittently or
loses its connection, move closer to the logger, within
sight if possible. If the logger is in water, the connection
can be unreliable. Remove it from water for a consistent
connection.
• If the logger appears in the app, but you cannot connect
to it, close the app and power cycle the mobile device.
This forces the previous Bluetooth connection to close.
Once the logger is connected, you can:
Tap this: To do this:
Select logger settings and save them onto the
logger to start logging. See Configuring the
Logger.
Read out (offload) logger data. See Reading Out
the Logger.
Start logging if the logger was configured to start
>
with a button push. See Configuring the Logger.
Stop the logger from recording data (this
>
overrides any Stop Logging settings described in

Configuring the Logger).

Illuminate the logger LEDs for 5 seconds.
>
Set a password for the logger that will be
>
required if another mobile device attempts to
connect to it. To reset a password, press the
button on the logger for 10 seconds or tap
and tap Reset.
Mark the logger as a favorite. You can then filter
>
the list of devices to only show loggers marked as
favorites.
Update the firmware on the logger. A logger
>
readout will be completed automatically at the
beginning of the firmware update process
Important: Before updating the firmware on
the logger, check the remaining battery level
and make sure it is no less than 30%. Make
sure you have the time to complete the
entire update process, which requires that
the logger remains connected to the device
during the upgrade.

the logger was previously configured with Bluetooth Off

button also brings the logger to the top of the list in the
app.
2. Tap Devices. Tap the logger in the app to connect to it.

will record data unless operating in burst logging mode (see
