Information about the device

Device description

Used in combination with Trotec’s MultiMeasure Mobile app the thermometer permits air temperature measurements. In case of individual measurements, the measurement value display can be refreshed both via the app and by a brief actuation of the measurement button at the measuring device. Apart from the hold function, the measuring device can indicate minimum, maximum and average values and carry out series measurements. In the app you can specify MAX and MIN alarm thresholds for all \parameters measured with the device. The measurement results can be displayed and saved on the terminal device either numerically or in form of a chart. Then, the measurement data can be sent in PDF or Excel format. The app also includes a report generation function, an organiser function, one for customer management and further analysis options. Moreover, it is possible to share measurements and project data with colleagues in another subsidiary. If MultiMeasure Studio Professional is installed on a PC, you can even use report templates and ready-made text blocks for various fields of application to turn the data into professional reports.

MultiMeasure Mobile app

Install the Trotec MultiMeasure Mobile app on the terminal device you want to use in combination with the device.

Info

Some of the app’s functions require access to your location and an active Internet connection. The app is available for download in the Google Play Store as well as in Apple’s app store and via the following link:

• https://hub.trotec.com/?id=43083

Start-up

Info

Allow for an acclimatization period of about 10 minutes in the respective measuring environment prior to the appSensor’s measuring operation.

Connecting the appSensor

Info

The app can simultaneously be connected to several different appSensors or appSensors of the same type and also record several measurements at the same time.
Proceed as follows to connect the appSensor to the terminal device:

• The Trotec MultiMeasure Mobile app is installed.
• The Bluetooth function on your terminal device is activated.

1. Start the Trotec MultiMeasure Mobile app on the terminal device.

2. Briefly actuate the On / off / measurement button (3) three times to switch on the appSensor.

   • The LED (2) flashes yellow.

3. Press the Sensors button (6) on the terminal device.

   • The sensors overview opens.

4. Press the Refresh button (7).

   • If the scanning mode was not active before, the colour of the Refresh button (7) will change from grey to black.

Continuous measurement

Info

Note that moving from a cold area to a warm area can lead to condensation forming on the device’s circuit board. This physical and unavoidable effect can falsify the measurement. In this case, the app will either display incorrect measured values or none at all. Wait a few minutes until the device has become adjusted to the changed conditions before carrying out a measurement. When the appSensor has been successfully connected to the terminal device, a continuous measurement is started and indicated. The refresh rate is 1 second. The 12 most recently measured values are displayed graphically (9) in chronological sequence. The currently determined and calculated measured values are displayed numerically (10).

Maintenance and repair

Battery change

A battery change is required when the LED at the device flashes red or the device can no longer be switched on. See chapter Operation.

Cleaning

Clean the device with a soft, damp and lint-free cloth. Make sure that no moisture enters the housing. Do not use any sprays, solvents, alcohol-based cleaning agents or abrasive cleaners, but only clean water to moisten the cloth.

Repair

Do not modify the device or install any spare parts. For repairs or device testing, contact the manufacturer.

Errors and faults

The device has been checked for proper functioning several times during production. If malfunctions occur nonetheless, check the device according to the following list.

Bluetooth connection is terminated or interrupted

• Check whether the LED at the appSensor flashes green. If so, briefly switch it off completely, then turn it back on. Establish a new connection to the terminal device.
• Check the battery voltage and insert new or freshly charged batteries, if required.
• Does the distance between appSensor and terminal device exceed the appSensor’s radio range (see chapter Technical data) or are there any solid building parts (walls, pillars etc.) situated between appSensor and terminal device? Shorten the distance between the two devices and ensure a direct line of sight.

The sensor cannot be connected to the terminal device although it is displayed there.

• Check the Bluetooth settings of your terminal device. A possible reason for this could be special, manufacturerspecific settings relating to an improved location accuracy.

Enable these settings, then try to establish a connection to the sensor again. Further information and assistance regarding the used sensor type will be provided in the MultiMeasure Mobile app via the menu item Settings => Help. Selecting the menu item Help opens a link to the app’s help page. You can open a drop-down menu with numerous support entries from the Table of contents. Optionally, you can also scroll through the entire help page and thoroughly acquaint yourself with the individual help topics.

Disposal

Always dispose of packing materials in an environmentally friendly manner and in accordance with the applicable local disposal regulations. The icon with the crossed-out waste bin on waste electrical or electronic equipment is taken from Directive 2012/19/EU. It states that this device must not be disposed of with the household waste at the end of its life. You will find\ collection points for free return of waste electrical and electronic equipment in your vicinity. The addresses can be obtained from your municipality or local administration. You can also find out about other return options that apply for many EU countries on the website https://hub.trotec.com/?id=45090. Otherwise, please contact an official recycling centre for electronic and electrical equipment authorised for your country. The separate collection of waste electrical and electronic equipment aims to enable the re-use, recycling and other forms of recovery of waste equipment as well as to prevent negative effects for the environment and human health caused by the disposal of hazardous substances potentially contained in the equipment. In the European Union, batteries and accumulators must not be treated as domestic waste, but must be disposed of professionally in accordance with Directive 2006/66/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council of 6 September 2006 on batteries and accumulators. Please dispose of batteries and accumulators according to the relevant legal requirements.

Only for United Kingdom

According to Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment Regulations 2013 (SI 2013/3113) (as amended) and the Waste Batteries and Accumulators Regulations 2009 (SI 2009/890) (as amended), devices that are no longer usable must be collected separately and disposed of in an environmentally friendly manner.
