Congratulations and thank you for choosing the OCEASOFT Atlas wireless monitoring
solution.
1.1 Summary
OCEASOFT Atlas is a Bluetooth-
enabled wireless device designed to
monitor temperature-sensitive
products during shipping. With its
small footprint, Atlas fits
conveniently inside many types of
product packaging and containers,
where it tracks temperature
according to parameters that you
can define for your specific needs.
Atlas records ambient temperature
at regular intervals and stores the
information in its memory. Atlas is designed for relatively short-term operation for shipping
applications lasting about 12 months. The battery in Atlas is not replaceable.
By using OCEASOFT Atlas with specially designed companion products, you can benefit from
a flexible temperature monitoring solution that adapts to many usage scenarios, from low-
to very high-volume needs. With this solution, you can keep track of critical temperature
information wirelessly without having to open any containers.
