Deploy the gateway in a location suitable for monitoring temperature and humidity.
Deploy the gateway. Some guidelines when selecting a location for the gateway:
- The gateway can support up to 50 loggers within transmission range, which optimally is 30.5 m (100 ft) will full line-of-sight.
- Test the range by positioning your mobile device where you want to deploy the gateway. If the mobile device can connect to the logger with the InTemp app from that location, then the gateway should be able to connect to the logger as well.
- If you plan to use the gateway for loggers in different rooms, be sure to test the connection first.

The gateway is ready for use with loggers. See www.intempconnect.com/help for details on configuring and downloading loggers with the gateway, setting up shipments, and more.
