EMC Considerations

Whenever EMC is an issue, always use shielded cables.

Never run signal and power wires in the same conduit.

Use twisted-pair wires for signal connections.

Install Ferrite Bead(s) on signal wires close to the instrument if EMC problems persist.

Failure to follow all instructions and warnings may result in injury!

1.2 Before You Begin

Inspecting Your Shipment: Remove the packing slip and verify that you have received everything listed. Inspect the container and equipment for signs of damage as soon as you receive the shipment. Note any evidence of rough handling in transit. Immediately report any damage to the shipping agent. The carrier will not honor damage claims unless all shipping material is saved for inspection. After examining and removing the contents, save the packing material and carton in the event reshipment is necessary.

Customer Service: If you need assistance, please contact the Customer Service Department nearest you.

Manuals, Software: The latest Operation Manual as well as free software and iServer Mail Notifier are available at the website listed on the cover page of this manual or on the CD-ROM enclosed with your shipment.

1.3 Description

View Temperature + Barometric Pressure with a Web Browser. The iServer let’s you monitor and record Temperature and Barometric Pressure over an Ethernet network or the Internet with no special software except a Web browser. The iServer serves Active Web Pages to display real time readings and display charts of temperature and barometric pressure, or log data in standard data formats for use in a spreadsheet or data acquisition program such as Excel or Visual Basic.

Adjustable Charts. The Java™ Applet chart scales are fully adjustable on the fly. For example, the chart can display one day, one week, one month or one year. Temperature and barometric pressure can be charted across the full span (0-70ºC) or within any narrow range (such as 20-30ºC). Barometric pressure can be displayed in hectopascals (hPa), millimeters of Mercury (mmHg), or inches of Mercury (inHg).
