How to Install the Temperature/Humidity Sensor

How to Install the Temperature/Humidity Sensor

1.Choose a location and install the temperature/humidity sensor. Avoid locations in direct sunlight or other locations that may affect the sensor reading, such as near windows, room entrances, air ducts, or other heat sources.

Note: When securing the sensor, tighten the tie wrap over the recessed channel of the sensor casing.

Vertical rail installation. Firmly install the sensor mount (25 x 25-mm [1 x 1-in] cable tie mount) at the location you selected. Then secure the sensor with a tie wrap.

Door-mount installation. For racks with a perforated door, use a tie wrap to secure the sensor.

Wall-mount installation. For a rough wall or porous surface, install the wall anchor at the location you selected.

Then, secure the sensor mount to the wall anchor using the screw provided. For a smooth wall or other smooth surface, firmly install the sensor mount (25 x 25-mm [1 x 1-in] cable tie mount). Secure the sensor to the sensor mount using a tie wrap.

2.Route the sensor cord to the Rack Monitor 200.

–If you mounted the sensor on the door, be sure the door is fully open when you route the sensor cord.

–The 4-m (13-ft) sensor cord can be extended to a maximum of 15 m (50 ft), using RJ-45 female-to-female couplings and standard CAT-5 cables.

3.Connect the sensor to the Rack Monitor 200 (see “How to Connect Sensors to Universal Sensor Ports” on page 10).
