HeatTag Wireless Sensor for Early Detection of Overheating
Cables
The operation LED blinks slowly orange when the HeatTag sensor triggers an
alert to the panel server or gateway.
NOTE: The detection and communication functions of the HeatTag sensor can
be disturbed depending on its installation and use in the equipment.
Temperature and Humidity
The HeatTag sensor measures the ambient temperature and humidity. These
values are refreshed every 60 s.
The transmission period is 60 s and can be increased by the system in the event
of high wireless data traffic.
Self-Diagnostics
The HeatTag sensor carries out two types of diagnostics:
• An alert is triggered when the HeatTag sensor is out of service. In this case it
does not report any measurements. The alert remains latched until it is reset.
• An alert is triggered when the fan is clogging (see Troubleshooting, page 23).
In this case the HeatTag sensor continues to analyze gas and micro-particles,
to trigger air alerts, and to report measurements.
Operation Mode
After switching on the HeatTag power supply:
• The HeatTag sensor is in test mode for 30 minutes. It can be tested with the
HeatTag Tester (see Test With the HeatTag Tester, page 18).
• After 30 minutes the HeatTag sensor is in auto-learning mode. It can trigger
the first alert. Testing the HeatTag sensor with the HeatTag Tester is not
allowed to avoid disturbance during the HeatTag environment-learning period
(8 hours).
• After 8 hours the HeatTag sensor has learned its background environment.
That is, the HeatTag sensor is in normal operation after a total duration of
8h30.
Each time the HeatTag sensor is powered on, 30 minutes and 8 hours sequences
are repeated.
