2.1 Using the testo 160
The testo 160 WiFi data logger system is a modern solution for monitoring the
climate and lighting conditions, e.g. in museums, archives, galleries and
libraries.
The system consists of WiFi data loggers, external probes and a Cloud data
storage system. The testo 160 WiFi data loggers reliably record temperature
and humidity, CO2levels, illuminance and UV radiation at adjustable intervals
and transmit the readings directly to the Testo Cloud via WLAN. Via the web
interface of this Cloud, the data can be analyzed at any time and anywhere,
using an internet-ready smartphone, tablet or PC. The WiFi data loggers are
programmed and reports are generated via this interface. Limit value violations
are immediately reported via e-mail or optionally via SMS, and alarm
notifications are possible via Push (Saveris 2 App).

If the WiFi data logger is in Continuous Mode (external power supply
via USB mains unit), the air quality light stays on permanently.
Temperature and humidity readings are displayed alternately.
If the WiFi data logger is in Single Mode (without external power supply
via USB mains unit), the air quality light only comes on briefly during
the measurement. Only the temperature is displayed. When switching
to Single Mode, the WiFi data logger does not supply any readings for
at least 10 min. “CAL” is shown on the display until the next
measurement.

2.3 External probes
The external probes S-TH, S-LuxUV and S-Lux extend the range of functions of
the 160 THE WiFi data logger and, in conjunction with the 160 E WiFi data
logger, form an extremely versatile measurement system.
The external probes are only approved in conjunction with the
testo 160 THE and testo 160 E WiFi data loggers.
2.3.1 S-TH
The external probe S-TH can be connected to the following WiFi data
loggers: testo 160 THE and testo 160 E. You can use the S-TH probe
to carry out temperature and humidity measurements.
To make it easy to install, the probe can be pushed out of the wall
bushing. The probe can also be used without this wall bushing.

2.3.4 Extension cable
The sensors are supplied with the 60 cm cable (0554 2004) as
standard. A 2.5 m long cable is optionally available (0554 2005), to be
able to adapt the measurement system to all measuring situations.
Since these are digital probes, multiple extension cables can also be
combined. The maximum total length is approx. 10 m.
2.4 Deco-covers
3 different deco-covers are optionally available. Cover 0554 2006 is intended
for the testo 160 TH, testo 160 THE and testo 160 E WiFi data loggers. Cover
0554 2009 is intended for the testo 160 THL WiFi data logger and cover 0554
2012 for the testo 160 IAQ WiFi data logger.

3.1 WiFi data loggers
Measurement-specific data
The humidity sensor attains the highest degree of accuracy in
temperatures between + 5 °C and + 60 °C and 20% to 80% RH. If the
instrument is exposed to higher humidity for a long period of time, this
can falsify the readings by up to 3% RH. After 48 hours at 50% RH ±
10 % and +20 °C ± 5 °C, the sensor regenerates by itself.
CAUTION
Damage to the humidity probe
-The probe must never be exposed to a humidity level of 100 % RH for
longer than 3 days.

& night) (battery type: Varta Industrial).
testo 160 WiFi data loggers come with a factory calibration protocol as
standard. For museums, we recommend having an annual test carried out by
Testo Customer Service. Moreover, there is an option of having ISO certificates
created for the WiFi data loggers. These can be implemented by Testo
Industrial Services (TIS) .

Ports
The testo 160 WiFi data loggers use the MQTT protocol, which
communicates via port TCP 1883 and 8883.
These UDP port approvals are also required:
•Port 53 (DNS name resolution)
•Port 123 (NTP time synchronisation)
All ports only have to be able to communicate externally to the Cloud.
No bi-directional port approvals are necessary.
During the initial configuration, it is possible to select whether DHCP or
Static IP is used (select Expert mode for the corresponding
information). (Not possible in the Setup assistant.)
testo 160 application
The testo 160 application is accessible via a normal, up-to-date
browser (www). The standard TCP ports http (80) and https (443) are
used.
