Overview
This item is discontinued; upgrade for this product is the HOBO RX3000. A web-based, 15-channel data logging system for a broad range of energy and weather monitoring applications. Transmits data to the web via cellular communications for easy access from internet-enabled devices. In addition, alarms can be configured to generate text messages and emails when data goes out of range.
Features
• Web-based energy and environmental monitoring
• Electronics are housed in an industrial-grade, tamperproof enclosure
• Setup is quick and easy with plug-and-play sensors
• Measures a wide range of energy and environmental parameters
• Cellular, Wi-Fi, Ethernet, direct USB options available
• Optional analog inputs with configurable sensor power
Specifications
Normal operating range: -20°C to 40°C (-4°F to 104°F)
Extended operating range: -40 to 60°C (-40 to 140°F) - see "Rechargeable Battery service Life" for impact of operations in Extended Operating Range.
Note: The GSM radio module will not communicate below -30°C (-22°F)

Inner Enclosure: Polycarbonate with brass inserts
U-Bolts: Steel with zinc dichromate finish
Gaskets: Silicone rubber
Cable entry channel: EPDM rubber
Cable entry bars: Aluminum with ABS plastic thumb screws
Data Storage Memory: Nonvolatile flash data storage, 512K bytes local storage
Memory Modes: Stop when full, wrap around when full
Operational Indicators: Up to seven (depending upon options) status lights provide basic diagnostics
Logging Interval: 1 second to 18 hours, user-specified interval
Battery Type: 4 Volt, 10 AHr Rechargeable sealed lead-acid
Rechargeable Battery Service Life: Typical 3–5 years depending upon conditions of use. Operation within the extended operating range (but outside the normal range) will reduce battery service life.
Time Accuracy: 0 to 2 seconds for the first data point and ±5 seconds per week at 25°C (77°F)
Environmental Rating: Weatherproof enclosure, tested to NEMA 6. (Requires proper installation of cable channel system)
Mounting: 3.8 cm (1.5 inch) mast or wall mount
Enclosure Access: Hinged door secured by two latches with eyelets for securing with user-supplied padlocks
Alarm Notification Latency: Logging interval plus 2–4 minutes (typical). Onset is not responsible for failed connections or undelivered mail/text messages.
Alarm Output Relay: One relay contact closure can be configured as normally open, normally closed, or pulsed.
Volage: t30 V Current: 1 amp max.
Sensor Network Cable Length: 100 m (328 ft) maximum
External Power: External power is required. The system optionally accepts the following Onset solar panels:
- SOLAR-1.2W
- SOLAR-3W
- SOLAR-6W
Alternatively it accepts an AC power adapter:
- AC-U30
