Equipment ratings and certifications are no longer valid on any products that have been damaged or modified without the prior written permission of Omicron IoT Solutions. Any continued use of a product that has been damaged or modified without prior written authorization is at the customer's sole risk and expense.
Recycling of device components and packaging should be taken into consideration and disposed of in accordance with local and national legislation/regulations. 1.2 Storage and Transport The Humitemp® is protected by a special packaging during transport and is guaranteed to handle normal loads during transport. omicroniot.com...
2.2 Power the device The Humitemp® is powered by 2 AA batteries (not provided by the manufacturer) or a MicroUSB power cable. The batteries are inserted into the battery box at the back of the device.
2 seconds. The device will confirm the entry to the Service Mode by displaying the expression 'rEd' on its screen. While being in the Service Mode, the Humitemp® device generates a temporary Wi-Fi® network using its built-in Wi-Fi® module, named "IoTDevice_", followed by the device ID (e.g., "IoTDevice_bcddc212345").
1. On the General Setup Page (Figure 2-2), press the Configure Wi-Fi button to go to a page where you can see a scan of the Wi-Fi® networks detected by the Humitemp®, two fields to enter data, and two buttons (Save and Scan).
Figure 2-4 Waiting page for the connection to the Wi-Fi® network If the entered credentials are not correct, after pressing the "WiFi Results" button, the following page will appear: Figure 2-5 Wi-Fi® configuration page invalid Otherwise, you will see: Figure 2-6 Wi-Fi® configuration page correct After this, if desired, you can exit the Service Mode as described in 2.4.1.

2. Use the cable clamp and strap supplied with the instrument to secure the external sensor cables as shown in the picture below: Figure 2-7 Humitemp® wall mounting. Securing the cables this way prevents the manipulation of the sensors from generating tension or dangerous bending near the connector, which minimizes the risk of them coming out or being damaged;...
The "Remote Configurator" Dashboard presents to the users a summary of the configuration options available for each type of the Omicron IoT solutions devices, and only requires them to choose a parameter to configure, after indicating the device model, and the elements or general aspects of the device to be configured.
Based on the above, it can be concluded that in the case of selecting and entering in the Remote Configurator, for what is shown in the following image (as an example), the Humitemp 44fa0e device will set the publishing time of its internal sensors to 10 minutes: omicroniot.com...
3.2 Configure the device parameters manually If you do not want to use the Remote Configurator to configure the parameters of a Humitemp®, you can manually access the list of configurable parameters of the device. To do this, perform the following steps: 1.
Page 16
Remember that after 4 seconds of inactivity, the device stops displaying the list of configurable parameters, and returns to displaying on its screen the measurements of its enabled sensors. The complete list of configurable parameters is presented below: Table 3-1 Humitemp® configurable parameters Parameter Parameter Name Description...

Minutes that the device waits to publish (or store in its internal memory for publication, Publication time if the parameter nSE is different from 1) new measurements on the Centriomega platform.
Section 4: Configuration on Sigfox Backend If it is desired that the Humitemp devices work with the Omicron IoT Solutions monitoring platform, using the Sigfox telecommunications network, the user can enable bidirectional communication with the platform by associating Callbacks to the Uplink and Downlink messages of the devices on the Sigfox Backend.

Section 6: Centriomega® Remote Control and Monitoring Platform The Humitemp® works in conjunction with the Remote Monitoring WEB platform. Users can access the Remote Monitoring Platform via WEB, to perform, among other things: ● Remote monitoring and visualization of historical data records, in graphs and data tables, for up to 2 years.
The platform uses some basic elements to organize the information it manages and facilitate interaction with users. These are: Dashboards, Devices, and Events. An introduction to the use of each of them will be offered in this guide. 6.2 Reviewing historical data Dashboards are interfaces where relevant data is presented to the users.
Figure 6-3 Dashboard visualization example To learn how to modify said elements and how to configure a Dashboard, you can contact the manufacturer of the Humitemp®. Remember that Contact Information is provided at the beginning of this document. 6.3 Reviewing Devices, their Variables, and Configuration A Device is a virtual representation of a physical device that takes data from sensors and transmits them through a particular network to the platform.
Reviewing the Variables of a certain Device allows for checking the update status and the current measure of each Variable. If it is suspected that one variable is not being updated properly, after entering the Device panel that should include it, its last activity period could be reviewed.
Page 34
To review an Event, initially follow what is indicated in Section 6.1, to access the platform. Inside the platform, users can find a link to the section that includes all the Events available to their accounts and locate the Event of their interest: Figure 6-7 Events Configuration To review the last activity of an Event (its log of updates, or the times in which one of its conditions where violated), the user can press the Log icon associated to any Event to see a...

Figure 6-9 Events Dashboard To learn how to modify the configuration of an Event, you can contact the manufacturer of the Humitemp®. Remember that Contact Information is provided at the beginning of this document. omicroniot.com June 2023...
Humitemp® devices assign extreme values to measurements from enabled sensors that are not properly connected or are malfunctioning. The following table summarizes the outliers that a Humitemp® can associate with each sensor, and what each of them can indicate: Table 7-1 Outliers associated with each sensor Predefined Humitemp®...
1. Verify that the device is in its Normal Operating State: The Normal Operating State of a Humitemp® can be recognized when the device presents on its display the different correct measurements taken by its sensors; whether they are internal or external, as long as they are properly connected.
If you receive the message, even if you enter the correct device ID information, request assistance from Omicron IoT Solutions technical staff. Remember that contact information is provided at the beginning of this document.

The API Label of each device is composed of its type and its ID, separated by a hyphen (e.g. humitemp-123abc). Once you have identified the ID of interest, you can use it to specify the device to be configured with the Remote Configurator.
