  • Page 6: Document Information

    1.1. Background This user guide contains all the information required to install, connect and commission the unit, as well as impor- tant notes concerning maintenance. It is therefore essential to read it before commissioning any Ijinus equipment. 1.2. Symbols used This symbol indicates a situation or use that may result in damage, fault or equipment malfunction.

  • Page 7: Chapter 2. Safety

    This document presents a number of operations and programming to be performed on a data logger, a sensor or an accessory supplied by Ijinus. These operations must only be performed by personnel qualified to use Ijinus products. The information provided in this user guide only ensures operational safety if the equipment is used correctly.

  • Page 8: Chapter 3. Product Description

    Chapter 3. Product description 3.1. Principle of operation Ijinus loggers are designed to be standalone units powered by a lithium battery. They log data transmitted by the equipment to which they are connected. A mobile programming unit (M0C00001) or a Wiji USB dongle (WIJIKEY-8) can be used to connect to the logger by radio (Wiji protocol), configure it and retrieve data locally.

  • Page 13: Chapter 4. Commissioning

    If the logger does not have a communication PCB, there is no need to open the housing as the internal battery is already connected to the PCB. The logger is therefore operational immediately. Ijinus loggers do not require activation, as they listen for a radio connection request from a radio access point or another logger every 10 seconds.

  • Page 15: Chapter 5. Power Supply

    Chapter 5. Power supply 5.1. Using a mains power supply Ijinus loggers can be powered from an external mains supply. The voltage delivered to the logger must be between 8 V and 30 V. You must use a transformer (e.g. 220 V / 24 V) that is correctly grounded. In the absence of a ground connection, several malfunctions may occur (metering problems, measurement disturbances, etc.)

    The use of a remote antenna is useful if the logger is installed in a manhole with a buffer. In this case, connection to the logger may not be possible. You must use an Ijinus remote antenna. Three lengths are available as standard: 1, 3 or 5m. In exceptional cases, a length of 10m may be proposed.
