This WiFi-enabled data logger can remotely monitor an environment using an inter-changeable J, K or T type thermocouple. Supplied with a K Type probe, its measurement range out of the box measures from 0 to 200°C (32 to 392°F). Data is uploaded periodically using a standard WiFi network to the EasyLog Cloud or a single host PC.
To configure the sensor for use on a given wireless network, either connect it via USB to a PC running EasyLog WiFi software on the network, or configure wirelessly using the EasyLog Cloud app on a mobile phone with access to the network. The sensor can then be placed anywhere within range of the network, it will log readings until it is able to communicate again with the PC application or EasyLog Cloud (max 30 days at 10 second sample interval).
The sensor is IEEE 802.11bgn* (2.4GHz) compliant, supports WEP, WPA/WPA2 encryption and enterprise networks (PEAP, TTLS, FAST).
The EL-WiFi-TC has a protection rating of IP42 and the probe IP67. The unit is freestanding, but can be attached to a wall or surface using the bracket provided. The unit can be clipped in and out of the bracket as required.

Lascar’s WiFi software is available as a free download from: www.lascarelectronics.com/software/easylog-wifi
Easy to install and use, EL-WiFi-WIN allows easy connection of sensors to a WiFi network. The user can select where data is stored - the PC or the Cloud.
Battery life and Power Supply
The battery can be recharged (unit must be between 0 - 40°C) via a PC, a USB +5V wall adapter, or a portable USB battery pack using the USB lead provided. It can also be permanently powered by a USB wall adapter or USB battery pack. Readings may be affected while the internal battery is being charged. However, once charged, continued connection of the charger will have no effect.
Battery life is dependent on: transmission period, WiFi encryption method, WiFi encryption key rotation frequency (determined by the router/access point), signal strength between router/access point and WiFi device, presence volume and type of WiFi traffic from other devices, sample rate and operating temperature.
