The TR7 Series data loggers can be used in the following ways.
nw: TR-71nw, TR-72nw, TR-75nw                        wb: TR-75wb

By using wired LAN (nw) and wireless LAN (nb), the logger automatically uploads the recorded data to the cloud. It enables the viewing of uploaded data and the changing of settings on your PC, smartphone and tablet.

Via PC: Setup and Download See reverse side.
Make settings and download data by USB communication between the PC and (nw) or (wb)

Via Smartphone: Setup and Download ( wb only) See reverse side.

Make settings and download data by connecting (wb) to a smartphone or tablet via Bluetooth®.

  • All estimates are based on operations carried out with a new battery and are in no way a guarantee of actual battery
  • When Auto-upload is used frequently on TR-71nw, the measurement of the internal sensor may rise by around 3°C.

Wireless LAN Settings

This step is not necessary for nw . Plug a LAN cable into a network hub or router, and go to step-3.

  • Wireless LAN settings using WPS may not be possible depending on the support- ed features or settings of your wireless LAN access point.
  • In this case, make wireless network settings on PC or smartphone. See reverse side.

The following information is required:

  • Network Name (SSID)
  • Security (WEP 64bit/128bit, WPA-PSK (TKIP), WPA2-PSK (AES))
  • Password (Network Key)
  1. Press the and buttons together until WPS appears on the LCD screen
  2. Set your wireless LAN access point to “WPS” mode
    • For details about Wireless LAN Access Point settings, refer to the user manual for that access point.
  3. When the setup is successfully completed, the wifi mark on the LCD display will turn ON

Checking Connection Status

  • Place the logger in the desired measurement location. Make sure Internet access is available

checking connection

  • Press the <REC/STOP> button to immediately send the recorded data to “T&D WebStorage Service” without waiting for the next transmission. If the transmission is successful,   Web will remain ON after com turns OFF
  • Unable to connect to the wireless network. Try changing the measurement location or adjusting the distance between the logger and the access point, and make the wireless LAN settings in Step-2 again.
  • Internet connection failed. Please check the network settings.

Viewing Recorded Data

In order to view the recorded data on a web browser, it is necessary to register devices to “T&D WebStorage Service” in advance.

  1. Access “T&D WebStorage Service” from the web browser on your PC or mobile
    https://webstorage-service.com

  2. Click [Create Account] to go to the registration page, and follow the direc- tions to complete the registration. If you already have your User ID, go to the next

  3. Login by entering the registered User ID and

  4. In the [Device Settings] window click [+Device].

  5. In the Add a Device page, enter necessary information* and click [Add]

    • *The registration code can be found on the supplied Registration Code Label.
  6. After data is sent to “T&D WebStorage Service” either by auto-upload or by pressing the <REC/STOP> button on the logger, the added device and its measurements will appear in the [Data View]

Troubleshooting Tips

If measurements are not displayed:

Check the screen of the logger and make sure REC is on, if not press <REC/STOP> to start recording. See “Recording Interval Setting (Common Operation)” above.

  • If the display of measurements is not refreshed:

Try making the recording interval shorter. If the recording interval is set to longer than the upload interval, the same measurement is displayed until the next record- ing occurs and the new data is uploaded.

  • If you lose your registration code label:

Open the software “TR7 for Windows” and connect your logger via USB to the computer. The connected logger and its information will appear in the left boxes of the main window. The registration code can be found here.

  • If you wish to save recorded data to PC:

Use “T&D Graph” that is available for download from the T&D Website. See Tips on the reverse side.

Changing Device Settings

It is possible to change device settings by using “T&D WebStorage Service”.

  • Note that the setting changes will not be actually applied until communica- tion occurs between the logger and “T&D WebStorage Service”. By pressing the<REC/STOP> button on the logger, however, settings can be applied immediately.

  • Thermocouple Sensors (for TR-75wb / 75nw)

We do not handle the sale of Thermocouple sensors. Please purchase separately.

External Power Supply

It is possible to use USB bus power, AC adaptor (AD-05A2 or AD-05C2: sold separately), or PoE (  —— only) as a power source. When using an external power supply, installing batteries will make it possible to continue recording in the event of a power outage.

Important Notice for Using an External Power Supply

When using external power, the data logger itself generates heat and the internal sensor of the TR-71nw will report a higher temperature than actual; we recom- mend using an external temperature sensor. Also, when an external sensor is used near the TR7 Series, it may be affected by the heat from the logger.

T &D WebStorage Service
  • “T&D WebStorage Service” is a free web-based cloud storage service pro- vided by T&D Corporation. By uploading recorded data to “T&D WebStorage Service”, it is possible to access your important data from anyplace in the world at any time you wish.

  • Useful features include automatic transmission of current readings & recorded data, graph dis- play, settings, etc.

TIPS

Clock Settings
  • The time difference setting can be changed via “T&D WebStorage Service”, “TR7 for Windows”, or “T&D Thermo”. The default time difference is as follows:
  • UTC +1:00 (for serial number “No.4XXXXXXX”) UTC – 8:00 (for serial number “No.3XXXXXXX”) UTC +0:00 (for all serial numbers)

T &D Graph

“T&D Graph” is a software program which enables the viewing of recorded data in graph form, whether the data is stored on a local computer or at “T&D WebStorage Service”. Even if the data you wish to view is divided into multiple files, it is possible to merge them into one graph by specifying the device name and/or time period. The graph data can be saved as a graph file (.trg) or a text file (csv).T&D Graph

T &D Data Server

The PC on which “T&D Data Server” has been installed can act as a server which receives and stores data recorded by TR7 Series data loggers to the user- specified folders. The stored data can be viewed in graph from using “T&D Graph” or monitored using a web browser. When you wish to have recorded data automatically uploaded to your server rather than
