Introduction
This chapter provides basic information about device. Before
starting please read this manual carefully.
Thermometer Web Sensor EPND-T-INT-POE, Web Sensor EPND-3T-POE and Web Sensor EPND-
4S-POE are designed to measure temperature or relative humidity. Temperature can be
displayed in °C or °F. Relative humidity have unit %RH. Communication with the device is
realized via Ethernet network. Device can be powered from external power supply adapter or
by using power over Ethernet –PoE.
Thermometer Web Sensor EPND-T-INT-POE has compact design and measures the
temperature in place of installation. To Web Sensor EPND-3T-POE is possible connect up to
three probes. Web Sensor EPND-4S-POE supports up to four probes. Temperature or humidity
probes are available as optional accessories.
General safety rules
The following summary is used to reduce the risk of injury or
damage the device. To prevent injury, please follow instructions
in this manual.
The device can be services only by a qualified person. The device contains no
serviceable parts inside.
Don’t use the device, if it doesn’t work correctly. If you think, that the device is not
working correctly, let check it by qualified service person.
Don’t disassemble the device. It’s forbidden to use the device without the cover. Inside the
device can be a dangerous voltage and may be risk of electric shock.
Use only the appropriate power supply adapter according to manufacturer specifications and
approved according to relevant standards. Make sure, that the adapter does not have
damaged cables or covers.
Connect the device only to network parts approved according to relevant standards. Where
power over Ethernet is used, the network infrastructure must be compatible with IEEE 802.3af
standard.
Connect and disconnect the device properly. Don’t connect or disconnect Ethernet cable or
probes, if the device is powered.
The device may be installed only in prescribed areas. Never expose the device to higher or
lower temperatures than is allowed. The device has not improved resistance to moisture.
Protect it from dripping or splashing water and do not use at areas with condensation.

Don’t use device in explosive environments.
Don’t stress the device mechanically.
Device description and important notices
This chapter contains information about basic features. Also
there are important notices concerning to functional safety.
Values from the device can be read using an Ethernet connection. The following formats are
supported:
Web pages with user changeable look and XML files
Modbus TCP protocol
SNMPv1 protocol
SOAP protocol
The device can also be used to check measured values and if the limit is exceeded, device
sends warning messages. Possible ways to sending warning messages:
Sending e-mails up to 3 e-mail addresses
Sending SNMP traps up to 3 configurable IP addresses
Displaying the alarm status on web page
Sending messages to Syslog server
The device setup can be made by the TSensor software or web interface. TSensor software can
be free downloaded from the manufacturer’s website. Also you will find there latest firmware
for your device. Do not upload to your device firmware which is not designed for it.
Unsupported firmware can damage your device.
If you want to use PoE, you must use PoE switch compatible with IEEE 802.3af standard.
Reliability of warning messages delivering (e-mail, trap, syslog), depends on actual
availability of necessary network services. The device should not be used for
critical applications, where malfunction could cause to injury or loss of human life.
For highly reliable systems, redundancy is essential. For more information please
see standard IEC 61508.
Never connect the device directly to the Internet. If it is necessary connect the
device to the Internet, properly configured firewall must be used. Firewall can be
partially replaced with the NAT.

Getting started
Here you can find information necessary to put newly purchased
equipment to operation. This procedure is only informative.
What is needed for operation
To install the unit you need to the following equipment. Before installation check if it’s
available.
thermometer Web Sensor EPND-T-INT-POE, Web Sensor EPND-3T-POE or EPND-
4S-POE
power supply adapter 5V/250mA or switch with PoE. Before using the device is
necessary to decide which way of powering will be used.
RJ45 LAN connection with appropriate cable
free IP address in your network
for Web Sensor EPND-4S-POE up to 4 temperatures probes type TEDX-102E, TED-
102E, TEPD-102C or relative humidity probe TRHD-101. Web Sensor EPND-3T-
POE supports up to 3 probes.
Mounting the device
check if the equipment from previous chapter are available
install the latest version of TSensor software. This software is used to all device
settings. TSensor software can be free downloaded from the manufacturer’s
website. Software can be also supplied on CD. Device configuration can be made
using web interface. For web configuration is not TSensor software necessary.
contact your network administrator to obtain following information for the
connection to the network:

IP address:
_____._____._____._____
Gateway:
_____._____._____._____
DNS server IP:
_____._____._____._____
Netmask:
_____._____._____._____
check if there is no IP address conflict when you connect the device into network
for the first time. The device has from factory set the IP address to
192.168.1.213. This address must be changed according to information from the
previous point. When you installing several new devices, connect them to the
network one after another.
connect probes to Web Sensor EPND-3T-POE or Web Sensor EPND-4S-POE
connect the Ethernet connector
if the power over Ethernet (PoE) is not used, connect the power adapter
5V/250mA
LEDs on LAN connector should blink after connecting the power
Web Sensor EPND-T-INT-POE connection (power supply adapter, Power over Ethernet):
Web Sensor EPND-4S-POE and EPND-3T-POE connection (power supply adapter, Power over
Ethernet):

Device settings
run configuration software TSensor on your PC
switch to an Ethernet communication interface
press button Find device...
the window shows all available devices on your network
click to Change IP address to set new address according to network
administrator instructions. If your device is not listed, then click Help! My device
wasn’t found! Then follow the instructions. MAC address is on product label. The
device is factory set to IP 192.168.1.213.
gateway may not be entered if you want to use the device only in local network.
If you set the same IP address which is already used, the device will not work
correctly and there will be collisions on the network. If the device detects a
collision of IP address then reboot is performed automatically.

after changing IP address device is restarted and new IP address is assigned.
Restart of the device takes about 10 seconds.
connect to device using TSensor software and check the measured values. If Web
Sensors EPND-3T-POE and EPND-4S-POE values are not displayed, it’s necessary
to find probes using button Search probes (Find probes).
set the other parameters (alarm limits, SMTP server, etc.). Settings are saved
after click on button Save changes.
Checking functions
The last step is to check measured values on the device website. In the address bar of the web
browser, enter the device IP address. If the default IP address was not changed, then insert
http://192.168.1.213.
Displayed web page lists actual measured values. If the web pages are disabled, you can see
text Access denied. If the measured value exceeds the measurement range or probe is not
correctly installed, then is shown Error message. If the channel is switched off, the web site
displayed n/a instead of the value.

Device setup
This chapter describes basic device configuration. There is a
description of settings using web interface.
Setup using web interface
Device can be setup using web interface or TSensor software. Web interface can be managed
by the web browser. Main page will be shown when you insert device address into address bar
of your web browser. There you find actual measured values. Page with history graphs is
shown when you click to tile with actual values. Access to device setup is possible via tile
Settings.
