InTemp CX1000 Series Temperature Logger

INSTRUCTION

The InTemp CX1002 (single use) and CX1003 (multi use) are cellular data loggers that monitor the location and temperature of your critical, sensitive, in-transit shipments in near real time.
The InTemp CX1002 logger is perfect for one-way shipments; the InTemp CX1003 is ideal for return logistics applications where the same logger can be used multiple times. Location, temperature, light, and shock data is transmitted to the InTempConnect cloud platform in near real time to enable maximum shipment visibility and control. Cellular data usage is included with the cost of the logger so there are no additional fees for a data plan.
View near real-time temperature data in the InTempConnect dashboard, as well as logger shipment details, current temperature, any critical alerts, and a near real-time map that shows the route, current location of your assets, and data upload points – so you can always check on the status of your shipment and access important data for analysis.
Generate on-demand reports in InTempConnect during or after the conclusion of a shipment so you can make informed decisions that help prevent product waste and increase supply chain efficiency.
Receive SMS and email notifications for temperature excursions, low battery alarms, and light and shock sensor alerts
A 3-Point 17025 accredited calibration certificate, valid for one year from date of purchase, provides assurance that the data can be trusted when making important product-disposition decisions.

Note: The InTemp CX1002 and CX1003 are not compatible with the InTemp mobile app or the CX5000 gateway. You can manage these loggers only with the InTempConnect cloud platform.

Deploy the logger. Deploy the logger to the location where
you want to monitor the temperature.
Once logging begins, the logger displays the current temperature reading.

Privileges
The CX1000 series temperature logger has two specific shipping privileges: Create CX1000 Shipment and Edit/Delete CX1000 Shipment. Both are accessible in the System Setup > Roles area of InTempConnect.

Logger Alarms
There are four conditions that can trip an alarm:

The temperature reading is outside the range specified on the logger profile it was configured with. The LCD displays an X for the temperature violation and the status LED is red.
The logger battery drops to 20%. The battery icon on the LCD blinks.
A significant shock event occurs. The broken glass icon is displayed on the LCD.
A logger is unexpectedly exposed to a light source. A light event occurs.

You can set temperature alarm thresholds in the logger profiles you create in InTempConnect. You cannot disable or modify battery, shock, and light alarms.
Visit the InTempConnect dashboard to view details about a tripped alarm. When any of the four alarms occurs, an unscheduled upload occurs regardless of the chosen ping rate. You can receive an email and or text message to alert you of any of the above alarms using the Notifications feature in InTempConnect.

Uploading Data from the Logger
- Data is uploaded automatically and continuously over a cellular connection. The frequency is determined by the Ping Interval setting in the InTempConnect Logger Profile.
Using the Dashboard
- The Dashboard allows you to search for shipments using a collection of search fields. When you click Search, it filters all shipments by the specified criteria and displays the resulting list at the bottom of the page. With the resulting data, you can see:
- Near-real-time logger location, alarms, and temperature data.
- When you expand the logger table, you can see: how many logger alarms have occurred, including low battery, low temperature, high temperature, shock alarms, and light alarms. If a sensor has been triggered, it is highlighted in red.
- The logger’s last upload date and current temperature is displayed as well.
