Resonate Wireless Temperature Sensor
This guide covers all Resonate Temperature Sensor models.
The Resonate temperature sensor product family includes:
RTS-1T-nW
RTS-1H-nW
RTS-1TS-nW,
RTS-2HS-nW
The character n is replaced with U for 902MHz, Y for 868MHz and J for 928 MHz radios.
The package includes the temperature sensor and installation guide.
NOTE: The RTS is a solar powered device that absorbs solar energy storing it for use during low
light periods. Before assigning the RTS device to a receiver/ controller, the device should be
exposed to a good light source for a minimum of 2 hours.

- Page 3 Temperature Sensor Description The temperature sensor (also referred to as the sensor in this guide) is a wireless, energy harvesting sensor that monitors room temperature in the range of 0-40°C (32° - 104°F) and relative humidity in the range of 0-100% . The sensor is intended for indoor use only. Some models have a temperature set point knob and/or a fan speed slide switch. These options provide the user an interface to manually adjust how the temperature control operates. A button on the lower right edge of the sensor body can be used to invoke an occupancy event (for RTS-2HS models) or to go into test mode (when the button is held down, see “Test Operating Modes”).

Page 4: Installing The Temperature Sensor
Installing the Temperature Sensor The temperature sensor can be mounted on any surface; glass, stone, concrete, wallboard, cubicle partitions, etc. The sensor can be mounted using screws (not supplied) through the removable back plate (2 keyholes or using double sided tape or Velcro™ (not supplied). The mounting location of the wireless transmitter is important as this will directly affect the receivers reception of the telegrams. Before installing, refer... -

within range of the temperature sensor to be linked. The sensor is a solar powered device that absorbs energy through a solar panel storing it for use during low light periods. Before assigning the sensor to a receiver/controller, the device must be exposed to a good light source for a minimum of 2 hours, or install the optional start assist battery (not supplied). - Page 6 released the test mode button, place the sensor under a lamp with at least 100 foot- candles (1000 lux) for 1 hour before retrying.

Page 7: Installing Wireless Devices
Installing Wireless Devices Careful planning is needed when locating the receivers and transmitters based on the construction materials in the space and possibility of tenant’s furniture disrupting the transmissions. The temperature sensor should be installed in the space where the receiver is mounted and connected to the temperature control equipment however the signal will travel through material barriers. Refer to the tables below for range considerations with building materials that reduce the radio signal power.
