Did you know that you can calibrate a wireless temperature sensor to make it more accurate for your application? The Monnit wireless temperature sensor is accurate to +/- 1°C (1.8°F) and calibration to the sensor’s working environment provides even greater accuracy. To calibrate your sensors, open your favorite browser and login to your iMonnit account at www.imonnit.com.
-
- Once logged into the system, go to the “Sensor List” panel and click on the name of the temperature sensor you want to calibrate.
- From the sensor information window, click on the Calibrate tab.
- Make note of the last reading the sensor returned.
- Enter the actual temperature that the sensor should have returned.
- Click the “Calibrate” button.
It will take the sensor 2 heartbeats to fully calibrate. Do not attempt any further calibrations until at least 2 heartbeats have elapsed. The calibration function is a linear calibration so it is recommended that you calibrate the sensor in the environment that it will be measuring. (It is not advised to calibrate a temperature sensor to room temperature and then place the sensor in a cooler or freezer.)
