Installation
The following procedure will guide from the installation procedure to
the Tapaculo 365 registration process.
1. Install sensors or connect other devices to the Data Logger as
needed.
2. Connect power and insert the battery.
3. Use the virtual Wi-Fi router feature to configure the Data Logger.
See Configuration on page 22.
4. Now that the Data Logger has been installed, it must be registered
to Tapaculo 365. See Tapaculo 365 on page 34.
Depending on your installation circumstances and conditions, your
installation process may vary. For example, if you are installing
multiple Data Loggers, you might find it easier to:
1. Insert batteries into all Data Loggers before running.
2. Configure one Data Logger first.
3. Use a micro SD card to set up additional Data Loggers. For this
method, see Memory Card Usage Configuration on page 32.
4. Register the Data Loggers onto Tapaculo 365.
5. Finally, install the Data Loggers.

The micro USB port is used for sensor calibration. As RN400 Series
sensors are shipped after calibration, no further calibration is
required. However, if the sensor malfunctions, contact DEKIST for
inspection.
