Accessing the Conguration Tool via Browser
Programming of the Smart Kitchen Timer (SKT) is not done on the unit itself, but through
the Conguration Tool. The Conguration Tool is accessed wirelessly on your web browser by
navigating to the SSID Screen on the SKT and connecting your computer to its unique SSID.
The Conguration Tool is used to add and edit programming such as: Groups, Items, Timers,
Job Aids, and pair Wireless Sensor Modules and Gateways.
1. Connecting on rst boot up: Place the SKT next to the computer you plan to use to
connect to the Conguration Tool. Connect the included power supply to the back of the
SKT and insert the plug into a wall outlet. Initial power up may take up to 30 seconds.
Once the SKT has powered on, rotate the screen by tapping on the blue button until the
desired orientation is set. Once nished, tap “Next.” Continue with steps 2-6.

Creating an Item (cont.)
The SKT allows for the programming of up to 1000 items on a single device, and up to 8 duty cycles and
messages for a standard timer. Items can be anything from food and ingredients, to tasks and reminders.
To create a new item, rst access the Conguration Tool, click “Items” in the “Components” menu, then
click “Add Item” to begin the item creation process. Before continuing, decide whether you would like to
create a Standard timer, a Daily Based Timer, or a Continuous Timer.
Standard Timer: This is the default timer when creating a new item. When enabled, a Standard Timer will
count down from the set total time, display the desired alert message(s), and then complete once the
nal message is cleared by the user.
1. First, enter the desired item name.
2. Click the “+” button under the message label, enter the desired cook/hold time, enter the message
you would like displayed upon timer completion and select “Create” or simply hit the Return key on
your keyboard. Repeat as necessary for any additional duty cycles.
Tip: You can also manage all of your programmed messages through the “Messages” tab in the
Components menu. Adding messages in this menu also provides the option to add the same
message translated to the desired language.
3. Click the “Add Icon” button and select the desired icon from the library, or drag and drop the le from
your computer.
4. Select the Group you would like to associate the item with or select “Non-Group.”
Tip: If you would rather have an item visible on the SKT screen at all times, selecting Non-Group
would be the preferred option.
5. Lastly, save your changes by clicking the oppy disk icon.
Daily Based Timer: This creates a timer for which an alert will be displayed every day at the specied
time. You also have the ability to select multiple times of the day for which you would like to receive
the alert. Daily Based Timers cannot be added to a group.
Continuous Timer: Selecting this option will create a timer that will repeat at a specied interval.
Continous Timers will begin counting down as soon as the SKT is powered on. Once the timer ends
and is cleared by the user, it will automatically restart.

The Conguration Tool allows users to upload a company logo, as well as images to use as Icons
on the SKT. These images can be in the same clip art style as those found in the Icon library, or live
images. In order to prepare images for use as Icons, either you or someone else in your organization
will need some basic understanding of image editing, as well as access to image editing software.
All images uploaded to the Cong Tool must be in PNG format with equal dimensions.
Preparing an Image for Use as an Item Icon: Images which will be used as Icons for Items can be
a circle shape of the image layer to maximize size. The smallest size/pixel dimension without loss of
image quality is 128 pixels x 128 pixels.
Preparing an Image for Use as a Job Aid Icon: Job Aids utilize both a Product Icon and an Action
Icon. The recommended size for Product Icons is 250 pixels x 250 pixels. The recommended size for
Action Icons is 128 pixels by 128 pixels.
Once you have prepared your images, connect your SKT to the Cong Tool and follow these steps:
1. Click the “Icons” tab in the Components menu.
2. If you would like to rst upload your company logo, click “+Add File” and select the image on

Tip: Renau oers the service of creating custom Icons for your SKT.
Please call for more information.
Pairing SKTsCustom Icons
Users have the ability to pair 7 additional SKTs with their primary SKT. The main reason for pairing
SKTs is to transfer completed timers between SKTs at dierent Stations. Additional SKTs do not
need to be individually programmed, they will automatically download the Conguration File of the
primary SKT. You must have the WiFi dongle inserted into the USB port of all devices at all times
to utilize this functionality.
1. Power up all SKTs you would like to pair. Select “Connected” as the operating mode on all
units.
2. Select “Master” as the device type on the primary SKT and select “Slave” as the Device Type
for the additional SKT(s). Continue by connecting the primary SKT to the Conguration Tool.
3. Continue by connecting the primary SKT to the Conguration Tool.
4. Once the primary SKT is connected to the Conguration Tool, proceed by creating all items
you will be adding to the additional SKT(s). Click “+” under the Devices tab and set the
Device Conguration for the additional SKT. Populate the SKT mock screen with the items
corresponding to this Device before clicking “Save Device.” Repeat this step as necessary
for any additional SKTs. Once nished, click “Send to Device.”
5. At this point, you may close the Conguration Tool and continue with setup on the SKTs.
Tap “Next” on the primary SKT and wait until the Device name(s) of the SKTs you wish to pair
show up on the screen. It may take up to a minute for the primary SKT to display all available
units for pairing. Once visible, tap “Pair.” You will receive a message on the screen(s) of the
additional SKT(s) once pairing has been successful. Tap “Next” on all SKTs and assign them
to the corresponding stations. Tap “Next,” then “Save and Exit”.
You will receive a message on the screen(s) of the additional SKTs once pairing
has been successful.
Tap “Next” on all SKTs and assign them to the corresponding stations. Tap “Next”,
then “Save and Exit”.
Note: For large congurations, it may take up to a few minutes for additional SKTs
to download the Conguration File from the primary SKT.
6. Once powered back up, the connection status indicator will initially be red on all paired SKTs
but should turn green after 20-30 seconds. You are now ready to create transferable items.

16 17
Creating a Transferable Item
1. Connect to the Conguration Tool with the primary SKT and create separate Groups
for the transferable Items. Next, create the Item for the product you would like to be
transferable and assign it to the proper Group. Next, create a duplicate of the Item, and
simply replace the timer(s) and alert message(s), add any additional duty cycles, and
assign the Item to the proper Group.
Note: When creating a transferable Item be sure to use the same name for both items.
The times, messages, and icon, however, do not need to match.
2. If you haven’t already created and congured a Device for the primary and additional
SKTs, do so now and populate the mock screens with your items as desired. To help
distinguish between the transferable items, lter them by Group. Save when nished and
send the conguration to device.
3. At this point you may close the Conguration Tool, tap “Next” on the SKT, assign it to the
proper station, tap through the remaining screens until the SKT restarts.
Note: Be sure to update any paired SKTs with the new congurations by tapping the
ashing exclamation mark next to the connection status indicator.
Uploading/Downloading Conguration Files
It is highly recommended that once you have nished programming your SKT you create a
backup Conguration File of your programming. Creating a copy of your conguration is also
useful for quickly programming multiple SKT’s utilizing the same conguration, and as a backup
in case your SKT is damaged or lost.
1. In the Conguration Tool, click “Download/Upload” at the bottom of the side menu and
click “Download”. This will create a Conguration le in the downloads folder on your
computer. If you plan on renaming the Conguration File, you must use underscores
in places of spaces in the le name.
2. To upload this conguration le onto a SKT, insert a ash drive containing the le into the
USB port of the SKT. Access the SKT’s menu, swipe up and tap “Upload Conguration”.
Once the le name is recognized, tap “Upload”. Alternatively, you can also upload a le
through the Conguration Tool by clicking “Upload” in the “Download/Upload” tab.
Note: Be sure to rst send the conguration to device before downloading
the Conguration File.

Adding a Gateway and Wireless Sensor Modules
The SKT allows for the pairing of up to 64 Wireless Sensor Modules (WSM’s) per unit. Adding Wireless
Sensor Modules to the SKT adds the ability to monitor and set alerts for temperature and/or
humidity. A Gateway is required in order to use WSM’s with the SKT. You will also need a blank ash
drive formatted as “FAT32.” Before conguring the Gateway, you will rst need to pair your WSM(s)
to the SKT using the Conguration Tool. Before continuing, make sure batteries are inserted into
the WSM(s) you wish to pair, and that the Gateway is powered on.
1. First, access the Cong Tool and select “Gateway/Sensors” under the “Managers” tab. Once the
WSM’s are prepped, click “+ Add Sensor.”
2. With WSM in hand, click the “NFC” button and hold the Wi-Fi logo on the Sensor Module to the
NFC logo on the top right of the SKT. It’s important to hold the Sensor Module still during this
process. After a few seconds, you will receive a popup in the Conguration Tool displaying the
WSM’s information. Click “Accept” to add the Module.
3. Next, click the “+” under “Probes” to congure the probe(s) connected to this WSM. Select the
icon you would like to represent the probe(s) and add a name as you would like it displayed on

7. Next, insert a blank ash drive (formatted as FAT32) into your computer and locate the
Gateway Conguration File in your downloads folder. Move the le onto the ash drive
before ejecting the drive and inserting it into the Gateway. Depending on how many WSM’s
you are adding to your system, the le may take up to 30 seconds to upload to the Gateway.
The LED on the Gateway will pulse on and o in 3 second intervals when the upload has
nished. However, it is recommended to leave the ash drive inserted into the Gateway until
you receive readings on the SKT.
Note: It may take a few minutes for the WSM(s) to connect to the Gateway and begin sending
data to the SKT.
Tip: To dierentiate between multiple Gateway cong les, create a folder with the desired
name and insert the cong le.
4. To add an alert for this probe, click “+ Add Alert,” input the desired message, and select
the “Condition” and “Value” which will trigger the alert. By default, the alert will be set
to “On.” If you would like to disable alerts for this probe, simply select “O.” Add any
additional alerts to this probe as needed. Once complete, click the oppy icon to save.
Repeat these steps as needed to pair additional WSM’s.
5. Continue by clicking the name of the SKT you would like the WSM(s) to be displayed on
under the Devices tab. Proceed with populating the mock SKT screen with the new Probe(s)
before clicking “Save Device.” Now, click “Send to Device” and return to the Gateway/
Sensors tab.
6. Click “Gateway File Export” and select “Yes” when prompted. The resulting downloaded le
will be “cong.zip.”
Tip: To dierentiate between multiple Gateway cong les, create a folder with the desired
name and insert the cong le.
