What is Web Wing WL RTR-5W?
The RTR-5W not only serves as a base station for the wireless downloading of recorded
data from our compact waterproof Wireless Communication RTR-5 Series Data Loggers,
but, moreover, the Web Wing WL RTR-5W serves as a network base station that allows
you to monitor and view current readings and gather recorded data via LAN or Internet
connection.
■Examples of Usage
- Recording measurements taken from various measuring instruments such as flow
meters, power meters, and analyzers.
- Data recording of moving objects and rotating objects on a production line.
- Temperature and humidity management in high humidity environments such as brewing
and crop cultivation.
- Measurement in places where wiring is difficult or impossible.
* The RTR-5W is designed solely for network communication. It does not include any RS-232 or USB communication interface. To make
use of this product you must connect it to a network. Moreover, in order to use this product via the Internet you will need other devices
(such as a router) and must first make necessary arrangements with a provider for a line and get a fixed IP address, domain, etc.
* When making settings in an RTR-5W without any settings already made (when purchased or after resetting), it is necessary to carry
out these settings using a wired LAN connection. After having made all the necessary settings via the wired connection, it is possible to
use a wireless LAN connection.

2
■Basic Functions
Gathering and Managing Remote Unit Data via a Network
The RTR-5W is able to gather via wireless communication the measured and recorded data from
any RTR-5 Series Data Logger and using a Local Area Network (LAN) or Internet connection
makes it possible to view current readings and / or download the gathered recorded data.
Extending Wireless Communication Range with RTR-50
By setting up RTR-50 Unit(s) as Repeaters it is possible to extend the wireless communication
range.
Up to 250 Repeaters can be set up.
With the Internal Web Server, use a browser to check current readings and view in
simple graph form
Because the RTR-5W is designed with a built-in Web server, it can be accessed directly from
your Internet browser.Via the browser you can check the current readings of any Remote Unit
that has been registered and view the recorded data in the Remote in a simplified graph form.
Connect to a Wireless LAN via CF Card
The RTR-5W is designed with a CF card slot. By inserting a wireless LAN card in this CF card
slot, it is possible to connect to a Wireless LAN; releasing you from the burden of cables and
wiring.
*For more about Wireless LAN connections please refer to: FAQ's >> Q&A about RTR-5W >> Q.6
“I want to use a wireless LAN… "(p.137)
Internet Connection allows for Public Access to Data
The built-in Web server gives you the option of putting your data on the Internet for public
access.
Also by using the Internet connection you can escape the boundaries of the Local Area Network
and gain the freedom to manage and collect data from anywhere the Internet is available; a low-
cost alternative to having to be in the local area.
View Current Readings via Cell Phone
It is also possible to use your cell phone browser to view current readings.
Set Upper / Lower Limits and Send Warning Report E-Mail
By making upper and lower limit settings for the RTR-5W, when one of the set upper or lower
limits has been exceeded, a warning report mail can be sent via e-mail.
* To make use of the warning report e-mail send function, it is necessary to be create an environment in
order to connect to the Internet or to an in-company (in-house) SMTP/POP server.
When a warning occurs it is possible to use contact output
When a set upper or lower limit has been exceeded, it is possible not only to send a warning
report via e-mail, but it is also possible to use the provided contact output on the main unit to
issue a warning within a structured warning system.

■Basic Functions of RTR-5W for Windows
The software is made up of the following 5 applications: [Network Settings Utility], [RTR-
5W for Windows], [Temperature / Humidity Graph], [Multi-Scale Graph] and [Event Viewer].
Also, by using your web browser to access RTR-5W, it is possible to view data via the
Internet.
*Only compatible with Internet Explorer 6.0 or higher using Windows 2000/XP/Vista/7.
Network Settings Utility
Make the necessary network settings for RTR-5W.
- Network Initialization Settings
Settings for helping to connect the RTR-5W to a network.
- Detailed Network Settings
Make detailed Network settings here.
RTR-5W for Windows
Make all necessary settings in order to communicate with RTR-51/52/52Pt/53, RVR-52A
Data Loggers via the RTR-5W Base Station. For each RTR-5W it is possible to create one
tree, and in that tree register Remote Units for communication.
- Remote Registration
Register any logger in the RTR-5 Series as a Remote Unit; also possible to register in Groups
for easy management.
- Recording Settings
By setting the recording interval, the recording start time and the recording mode, recording will
begin at the set date and time.
*When using RTR-52Pt make sure to make all necessary sensor settings.
- Downloading Recorded Data
Download recorded data from the RTR-5W to a computer and create files.
Also, by making Auto-Download settings, it is possible to gather from Remote Units at a set
interval of time or at a set time of day.
- Warning Monitoring
If a measurement exceeds the set limit, a notification can be sent via e-mail from the RTR-5W
to your computer or cellular phone. Also, because there is a built-in external output terminal, it
is possible to connect to an external device, such an alarm or light, so that a notification of a
warning can be seen or heard onsite.
- Gathering Current Data
Gather and view current measurement readings from the selected Remote Unit(s).
- Transfer Data
The RTR-5W retrieves and stores data at a set regular interval. This stored data is transferred
for display.

4
Temperature / Humidity Graph / Multi-Scale Graph
Temperature and Humidity are displayed in the Temperature and Humidity Graph. In the
Multi-Scale Graph, voltage, pulse, temperature and humidity data can be viewed in graph
form.
In Multi-Scale Graph, it is possible to make settings for scale and unit of measurement to
match the type of data being downloaded.
- View Graphs and Print
It is possible to view the downloaded data as a list and print.
■View 8 channels of data in 1 display
Up to 8 channels of recorded data can be viewed in the same graph at one time.
■Easy zoom in and out with mouse
By selecting a range with your mouse you can easily zoom in and out on data.
■Calculate and view the highest, lowest and average readings for a desired range
In the Graph, for each channel it is possible to designate a desired range from which the
highest, lowest and average readings will be calculated and displayed.
■Graph Printing
It is possible to easily print in color the Graph as it is being displayed.
- View and Print Data List
You can view the data displayed in the graph window as a list and then choose to print.
■View in Easy to Distinguish Colors
In the data list, the highest value will appear in red, the lowest in blue, and the average in pink.
■Printing the Data List
It is possible to print the entire list as displayed or to select pages for printing.
- Creating Text File
It is possible to convert the recorded data for a specified range (time period) into a file using
a common text format (such as CSV format), so that it can be exported to commercial
spreadsheet and analysis software.
Event Viewer
View and print Event data recorded with the RVR-52A Data Logger.
- View List
Up to 64 channels of downloaded data can be viewed in one list.
- Print Preview and Print
Printing can be carried out after checking the preview window.
- Creating Text File
It is possible to convert the recorded data for a specified range (time period) into a file using
a common text format (such as CSV format), so that it can be exported to commercial
spreadsheet and analysis software.

5
RTR-5W Web Viewer
Use your browser to monitor current readings and view data graphs.
- Monitor Current Readings
The RTR-5W communicates with Remote Units at a set regular interval and then stores the
gathered readings. The most recent measurement will be displayed.
It is also possible to view via a cell phone browser.
- Graph
The graph displayed in the browser will be the same graph that is shown upon opening [Transfer
Data] in RTR-5W for Windows.
