1.3 ClimaCheck internal application version and PA-ID
Each PA Pro III unit has a unique id number to identify it on the ClimaCheck Online server, this
number is set by ClimaCheck and can be seen in the display after the unit has booted up as
“ID=XXXXXX”.
The internal application version can be seen in the display on the same row as the PA-ID. Contact
ClimaCheck support for information on the latest version.

2Communication
2.1 Ports
The PA Pro III unit has LAN, WLAN and Mobile connections to communicate with the ClimaCheck
server. It also has a USB to communicate locally with a computer.
PA Pro III uses the following ports when communicating with the ClimaCheck Online server:
Data sent to ClimaCheck online: UDP outgoing data on port 2049 to URL
online.climacheck.com
Data received from ClimaCheck online: TCP http request outgoing session, port 80, to URL
integration.climacheck.com
Configuration/set-up to PA Pro III from ClimaCheck online: TCP request outgoing session on port
80 to URL integration.climacheck.com
ClimaCheck Gateways to deployment server: TCP, port 5001, to URL online.climacheck.com
Port 2049 to our URL - send UDP text string (ID, Timestamp, data1, data2, ….)
Port 80 to our URL - Send a Http Request for desired analysed values and receive response,
(see Integration manual), also used to check and fetch configuration update
Port 5001 to our URL - used for firmware and application updates and trouble-shooting of
ClimaCheck Gateway through deployment server
2.2 SMS Commands
SMS commands can be sent to PA Pro III to control it. The Modem in the unit is always active and
sms commands are executed regardless of communication mode (GPRS, LAN, WLAN) as long as an
active sim card is inserted.
Table 2, SMS commands

The unit will respond with a SMS and then execute the command.
If communication mode is changed with SMS commands the unit will use the pre-set settings for
the selected mode. To change communication settings like APN, SSID´s or IP addresses for GPRS,
LAN or WLAN use the PA Pro III Configurator, see section 4.6.

3.6 1-Wire temperature sensors
A 1-Wire temperature sensor is a bus sensor and unlike Pt1000 sensors the measured value of the
sensor is not affected by the resistance in the cable between the master (PA Pro III) and the slave
(sensor). Limitations in number of sensors and cable length as well as the preferred topology is
described below.

Figure 4 1-Wire preferred topology
The preferred topology, Figure 4, is with the PA Pro III connected at one end of the 1-Wire bus and
each sensor connected to the bus with branches or “stubs” where each stub is less than 3m. The PA
Pro III can handle a total of 16 sensors and a total “weight” of 65 m. The weight is the length of all
cables + 0.5m per sensor + 0.5m per split.
Weight = total cable length + 0.5*sensor + 0.5*split
Example: 3 sensors on 2 meter stubs that is located 5 meters from the PA Pro III with 1 split has a
total weight of 0.5*3+(2*3+5)+0.5*1=14.
Do not run signal wires in parallel with power cables.
3.6.1 1-Wire temperature sensor setup
1-Wire sensors delivered with the system/logger will be configured and marked at shipment. Sensors
added later have to be configured/connected.
The 1-Wire sensor has a unique ID to identify it on the 1-Wire bus and each sensor needs to be
configured/connected in the PA Pro III. When a sensor has been connected to a specific position it
will stay on this position regardless of where on the bus it is connected or which 3.5 mm 1-wire
socket that is used.
3.6.2 Connecting sensors
The sensors need to be connected and configured one at a time. Use the following sequence to
setup and connect the sensors:
-Connect sensor
After a few seconds “Unknown 1-W sens found” is displayed
-Press ESC to enter the Main menu
-Press Down until “Setup”is showed in the display
-Press SEL to enter setup menu
-“1W Sensor Setup”appears in the display
-Press OK to start setup

ClimaCheck PA Pro III Hardware Manual –2018-05-15 13
If this is the first setup ”T1 Sensor not conf” appears in the display, if sensors are already
configured these will be listed.
-With the up and down arrows go to the position you want to save a sensor to
-Press SEL
-“TX New=xxxxxx OK” is showed in the display (Were TX is the position and xxxxxx is the id
number of the sensor)
-Confirm with OK, “S-RID Saved” appears for 2 seconds
-Temperature reading and ID is appearing in the display “TX=XX.X ID=xxxxxx”
-Press ESC 4 times to go back to the main menu or start from the top to connect another
sensor.
If “No new s-r found” appears while setting up a new sensor the PA Pro III cannot find any sensor
on the bus that is not already configured, check connection and make sure the sensor has not been
connected already.
3.6.3 Replace a 1-Wire sensor
To replace a sensor
-first disconnect old sensor
-Press ESC to enter the Main menu

-“Tx NEW=xxxxxx OK” is showed in the display
-Confirm with OK, “S-RID Saved” appears for 2 seconds
-Temperature reading and ID is appearing in the display “TX=XX.X ID=xxxxxx”
-Press ESC 4 times to go back to the main menu.
3.6.4 Clear all 1-Wire sensors
To clear all configured 1-Wire sensors
-Press ESC to enter the Main menu
-Press Down until “Setup” is showed in the display
-Press SEL to enter setup menu
-Press down until “Clear 1W Sensors” is showed in the display
-Press OK
-“Clearing..” appears and then your back in the setup menu
This will clear all sensor including preconfigured sensors. You can now connect the sensors again,
see section 3.6.2.
3.6.5 Trouble shoot 1-Wire sensors
-“No tempsensors or conn. Wrong. OK?” is showed while configuring sensors.
Check wiring and make sure all sensors are connected properly (Data, GND). If the wires
from one (1) sensor is mixed up the whole 1-Wire bus stops.
-“No new s-r found” is showed when trying to connect/configure sensor.

ClimaCheck PA Pro III Hardware Manual –2018-05-15 14

Clear all configured sensors and connect them again, see section 3.6.4
-A configured 1-Wire sensor is showing -999.00
PA Pro III has lost connection with the sensor, check wiring.
3.7 Reboot and Reload Configuration
Most of the configuration for external units can be done on the Climacheck server. Any changes to
Modbus addresses for external units such as energy meters or IO modules can be done on the
Climacheck Online server and then downloaded to the unit. If the unit has an internet connection it
will try to contact the server every 6 hour to check for commands to Reload configuration from the
