magnet “bun hygro” will beep once. Keep the magnet in position until you hear a long continues beep.

•Hearing the long beep means that “bun hygro” is in “setup”mode. Use your smart phone, computer, tablet, etc and search for open Wi-

Fi network named (SSID) "Bun hygro" (no password required).

•Connect to “bun hygro”, open a browser and key in 192.168.4.1 in address bar. A blue page will appear with your devices serial and

DUID numbers (figure 4).

hotspot with magnet again.

•If your “bun hygro” successfully connects to your Wi-Fi, it will connect to server and becomes activated automatically. In this case you will hear (4) short quick beeps (like: . . . .)

•If for any reason your device fails to connect to your Wi-Fi or server, device will inform you by (2) long beeps (like phone line busy signal:   ) which means you need to repeat

the procedure again.

•Title: You can change the device's name appearing in your devices list and dashboard and assign a name to temperature and RH sensor separately.

•Reading dimension: You can change the reading dimension for each sensor of your device according to your preference (If applicable). Like °C or °F for temperature.

•Alarms: you can set your device to push notifications to you via email or text message for three (3) different situations:

1) If each measured parameters (like temperature) exceed or fall from a maximum or minimum defined thresholds.

2) If server does not receive any uploads for a certain defined time in minutes from your device.

3) If an error code rise in the device. For example in case of low battery device will send error number 5. You can choose which error codes be pushed to you. Please read error” chapter

of current user manual to learn more about meanings of each error code.

•Installation location: It will help you to locate your device if necessary.

•Wi-Fi settings: You can see the name of the Wi-Fi that your bun is connected to. Also you can set a password for open setup network name “bun hygro” so nobody else can trigger your

device with a magnet and change the setup.

Note:You can always change Wi-Fi settings in your device by triggering “setup” mode as well by hovering a magnet for three (3) or more continuous seconds over magnet sensor

(same as first time activation procedure).

•Reading and uploading intervals.

Note:Your devices battery life will be affected by intervals of read outs and uploads. Web application will show you the estimated battery life of the device based on your settings.

Note: You can set “upload intervals” on “on demand” mode. In this mode your device will not try to connect to Wi-Fi unless you trigger force upload by hovering a magnet on magnet

sensor of the device.

Note: Device will try to upload readouts stored in internal memory before reaching the maximum memory records capacity (16300 records). By reaching the number of recorded

readouts in internal memory, all records will be deleted automatically and device continues logging like before.

Graphs:By clicking on Graphs icon, you will access to the graphs of all previous uploaded records in any desired intervals. You can save the graph in PNG, JPG, PDF or SVG format.

Details: You can view a detailed list of all the uploaded records.

Reports: You can extract PDF reports (peak points, average, etc) for any desired interval and download detailed readings in Excel format.

IMPORTANT NOTE: your device is semi-online. It will only sync with server when it tries to upload the read-outs. If you change any setting on the web site it won’t be applied to the

device before it syncs to server. You can enforce syncing by short magnet hover. Or device will receive new settings as soon as it syncs for next designated upload time.
