Alternatively, to connect your logger using Bluetooth connection capabilities, refer to the LogTag Mobile application and the Bluetooth Connection Guide.

Note: Please ensure there is an internet connection on your computer prior to starting this process.

Passwords are case-sensitive. Select the eye icon [Show Password] to view the password you entered.

Remote Configuration through LogTag Online

LogTag Online is a secure online application that stores the data recorded from your logger against your account. Once your device is connected to your network, it can be configured remotely through LogTag Online. Profile and timezone can be configured for the logger.

Ensure your device is plugged into your computer using the USB cable provided. If the profile is shown as pending configuration, you can speed up the connection between your logger and LogTag Online by pressing and holding both the 'CHANNEL FUNCTION' and 'REVIEW/MARK' buttons on the logger simultaneously for approximately 6 seconds.

The 'Edit Device' window shows the DEVICE NAME and DEVICE CONFIGURATION PROFILE (e.g., 'Generic Ambient', Status: 'Pending'). Options include 'DELETE DEVICE', 'CLOSE', and 'SAVE'.

Manually register your device if you cannot see the location. The second location will need to be created manually. Each channel can be assigned to its location. Please refer to the Activation Codes section in the LogTag Online User Guide for more information.

• As soon as your device has been identified through the Connection Wizard.
• Via manual registration by selecting 'Register Device' in the registered devices table on the Dashboard or in the Devices screen.

2. Navigate to the Location screen and select to edit the location created for the first channel of your registered device.

Installing the Wall Mount

Setup of your UTRED30-WiFi is complete.

Before sticking on the Wall Mount, ensure the probe cable and the USB cable from the UTRED30-WiFi can reach the device comfortably without obstruction or risk of accidental disconnection if knocked.

Insert the UTRED30-WiFi into the Wall Mount, connect the USB and sensor cables. The display should show the word "READY", as seen in the accompanying diagram.

Starting your UTRED30-WiFi

Press and hold the START/Clear/Stop button.

'STARTING' will appear along with 'READY'. Release the button once 'READY' disappears.

The UTRED30-WiFi now records temperature data.

The Logger will not start if:

• You release the button before 'READY' disappears.
• You keep holding the button for more than 2 seconds after 'READY' disappears.
• The backup battery is critically low and the Logger is not connected to power.

The device display shows 'READY STARTING' and the time '09:16', then later shows 'REC.' status, time '13:08', and current, min, max temperatures.
