1.1 WiMo Specifications The WiMo sonde has 4 universal locations where sensors or a cleaning system can be plugged. The sonde is equipped with a pressure and temperature sensor. It is powered by 6 Type D Alcaline batteries and is compliant with NiMH Type D rechargeable batteries.
A Wi-Fi link is used to setup the sonde and for file data transfer. No dedicated software is needed to setup the WiMo. An Embedded WEB Server gives access to all the sonde functionalities using an internet browser. WiMo / WiMo Plus Multiparameters Sondes...
However zero will vary with changes in atmospheric pressure. The sensor contains its own temperature measurement to make its compensation. Temperature measurement is available in the WiMo and WiMo Plus sondes. WiMo / WiMo Plus Multiparameters Sondes...
12,3 cm 1.4 Cleaning device The WiMo and WiMo Plus sondes allow a cleaning device on their location. This device is a smart wiper. It self-configures according to the sensors that are connected to the sonde. It automatically detects whether the sensors need or can be cleaned and adjusts its wipe accordingly.
2 Operation 2.1 Sensors install The WiMo and WiMo Plus sondes come with a cap on each sensor location. These caps ensure the sonde is waterproof. When you remove a cap the sonde is no longer waterproof until you place a sensor or a cap.
Grease both O-rings of the cap with the grease provided and engage the cap in the location. Screw the cap clockwise until the locking sleeve is in contact with the sonde head. Help with the key tool provided if necessary. WiMo / WiMo Plus Multiparameters Sondes...
Move the sensor slightly from right to left to check that the pin is in front of its receptacle before starting to screw. Be careful not to damage the threads of the sonde. Any deterioration of the threads is not covered by the warranty. WiMo / WiMo Plus Multiparameters Sondes...
If optical sensors are mounted on the sonde, it is important to properly set the guard to avoid bias on the measurements. The figure below shows how to set the guard on the sonde (WiMo or WiMo Plus). Screw the guard to the maximum and unscrew slightly to fit the sensors centered on the...
Operation 2.2.1 ISE sensor protection guard The protection supplied as standard with the WiMo and WiMoPlus probe does not properly protect the ISE sensors (Redox, Nitrate and Ammonium). For optimal protection it is necessary to equip yourself and change the sensor protection with ref 72-12-544...
Standard network support IEEE 802.11 a/b/g/n Frequency Bandwith 2.4 - 2.5 GHz The sonde can only be connected to one device at a time. Be careful to disconnect from the WiMo before reconnecting with another device. WiMo / WiMo Plus Multiparameters Sondes...
2.4.2 Tablet Once the sonde is activated (see §2.3) search its SSID in the list of available networks by going into Wi-Fi settings. The sonde's SSID is in the FORM of WIMO - XXXX. Select the sonde and click "Connect"...
2.4.3 Smartphone Once the sonde is activated (see §2.3) go to Wi-Fi settings menu and search its SSID in the list of available networks. The sonde's SSID is in the FORM of WIMO - XXXX. Select the sonde and click "Connect"...
Enter the default address 192.168.56.1 in the address bar. It will be possible in the sonde interface to modify this address if you want to protect access to your WiMo. Be careful if this address is changed, take care to write it down or you will no longer be able to connect to the probe.
The image of the WiMo at the top (see above) shows an overview of its configuration. On the left are the available communications and whether they are activated or not (grey icon = disabled) and on the right the sensors connected to the probe .
In operation with the WiMo Modem, this option is automatically activated and the measurement files cut to a size of 256K. Data files can be compressed to ZIP to save memory space.
There are several sampling modes. In continuous mode a sample of each parameter is recorded at the rate of "measurement period." Burst mode allows you to record a number of samples for a shorter time period than "measurement period" at the rate of "measurement period." WiMo / WiMo Plus Multiparameters Sondes...

By clicking on this symbol present in “Sampling regime”, you will see a schematic help window like the one below on the different operating modes. When operating in ModBus, Burst, Tide and Wave sampling modes are not allowed WiMo / WiMo Plus Multiparameters Sondes...
For "data" files, information about the file is available by clicking on the information icon. Comment information, start date, end-of-record and number of samples acquired are provided. If the sonde is still running the end date of registration is not filled. WiMo / WiMo Plus Multiparameters Sondes...
The parameter is displayed or not simply by clicking once on the associated parameter icon. You change the display arrangement by clicking on the lozenges at the top left. The active arrangement is dark blue. WiMo / WiMo Plus Multiparameters Sondes...
3.4 Alarm Menu The WiMO probe has 2 levels of internal battery voltage monitoring. It can generate and then transfer by Email an alarm file on detection of weak batteries. All you have to do is activate the “Low battery”...
(cf. §3) Step N°4 : Check that all sensors have been detected and set up the acquisition Step N°5 : turn on the probe Once the Wi-Fi shuts down the probe can be deployed WiMo / WiMo Plus Multiparameters Sondes...
Any damaged O-rings must be changed. 4.1.2 Sensor port service A sensor should ALWAYS be unplugged WiMo's head downwards in order to avoid any water entering the sonde. During each plug/unplug sensor operation, do a careful inspection of the surfaces of the sensor location.
Maintenance 4.2 Replace batteries The WiMo and WiMo Plus sondes use 6 D-type Alkaline batteries. It is important to use reliable alkaline batteries, especially batteries whose capacity is notified, as this capacity will have to be carried over in the sonde for battery life calculation (voir § 3.1.1).
. Use the Allen key to insert the two screws to lock the cap . CLIC ! 5 Product Identification The WiMo is identified with a label summarizing its identifiers and the information needed to log in. ❶ ❷ ❸ ❹ ❶ Product name ❷ QR-code to access configuration interface ❸...
The Topkapi TXT2 format is a compliant format with the monitoring software, SCADA Topkapi. The name of the file is formatted as PREFIXE_AAAAMMJJHHMMSS.TXT The prefix discriminates the WiMo. It corresponds to its serial number. Each file is a 3-column ASCII file defined as follows: •...
This part is used to display the information about the file in the interface but can also be used by the end-user to find the full configuration of his WiMo. If compression has been enabled the configuration will be in a separate file.

Alarm on GPS drift (distance 5198m from the original location) + low Modem battery voltage. 8 Accessories available 8.1 Modem The 3G/4G WiMo modem coupled to the WIMO multi-parameter sonde is able to transmit its data using the deployed 3G/4G networks. The modem is multi-operator and is compliant with French and foreign networks.
Refer to the "3G/4G WiMo Modem" modem manual for installation and configuration. The modem can only be configured if it is connected and detected by a WiMo probe. Detection is done when you click on the Refresh button in the “Network and communication” window.
Accessories available The WIMO float 20 liters allows to easily deploy a WIMO or WiMo Plus probe equipped with a 3G/4G Modem at sea or on inland bodies of water. It provides protection against shocks and reduces the development of biofouling on the probe's body. When mounted on the float, the sensors of the...
