Model: SP3000T Revision P1A/01102013USER MANUALSmartPoint SP3000T1 Preface1.1 What is the SmartPoint SP3000TThe SmartPoint(SP) SP3000T combines a high accuracy temperature sensor and extensive logging capabilities with wireless communication capabilities. Due to the devices extreme energy efficiency, it has long battery life. The SP3000T is intended for static deployment in, for example, cool cells or temperature controlled warehouses, or mobile deployment, for example, attached to temperature sensitive produce. The temperature samples are conform EN12830 (type D). Optionally, the temperature sensor of the SP3000T can be calibrated (service sold separately, including calibration certificate). The SP3000T operates inside any 3000 Series wireless network consisting of a ConnectGate(CG) or Gateway(GW) and MicroRouters(MRs). As soon as the SP3000T is activated and is in range of an infrastructure device, it will start reporting the temperature1 at a 5 minute interval. Optionally, the SP3000T can be configured for different reporting rates and for smart alerting based on temperature measurements. Temperature measurements are stored for up to 28 days in the SP3000T.1.2 Features1. Accurate Temperature SensorThe internal TMP102 temperature sensor ???2. Low Power1 Assuming factory settings of the ESP3000T/H/CO2 and default security settings of the 3000 Series Infrastructure.Ambient Systems B.V.Page 4 of 19Colosseum 15D • 7521 PV Enschede • The NetherlandsT: +31 88 2624368 • F: +31 88 2624399 • www.ambient-systems.netKvK: 08122911 • VAT NL: 81297625381CHECK.TRACK.TRACE.

Model: SP3000T Revision P1A/01102013USER MANUALSmartPoint SP3000TThe internal temperature sensor is best-in-class with regards to energy consumption and enables long-term battery-operated usage.3. Long RangeThe SP3000T has a combined Power Amplifier (PA) & Low Noise Amplifier (LNA) offering maximum radio range.4. Easy InstallationDue to the fact that the SP3000T is powered by an internal battery, it can be configured and installed within minutes.5. Automated Logging & Flushing2The SP3000T has a 2MB internal Flash that is used to store up to 8K data samples. In case of temporary connection loss, the SP3000T will log its sensor readings and flush them fully automated once a connection is re-established, offering a high degree of redundancy and reliability.1.3 ConventionsThis user manual uses the following typographical conventions to mark certain portions of text: new terms, foreign phrases, and other important passages are emphasized in italics.Everything that represents input or output of the computer, in particular commands, program code, and screen output, is shown in a mono-spaced font and separated by borders.

The other devices use this model as a basis and therefore also provide temperature samples, via the internal temperature sensor.The SP3000TH provides humidity samples.The SP3000TERS has an external reed switch which can be configured to send a message when the reed switch is activated or deactivated.The SP3000T1W has an external temperature sensor which provides additional temperature samples.The type of the SP3000T is indicated by the label on the exterior of the product.Ambient Systems B.V.Page 10 of 19Colosseum 15D • 7521 PV Enschede • The NetherlandsT: +31 88 2624368 • F: +31 88 2624399 • www.ambient-systems.netKvK: 08122911 • VAT NL: 81297625381CHECK.TRACK.TRACE.

Model: SP3000T Revision P1A/01102013USER MANUALSmartPoint SP3000T4 Installation4.1 PreparationBefore the SP3000T can be installed, please ensure you have all the required tools available. It is strongly recommended to first read the User Manuals on the Ambient 3000 Series 3rd Generation Active RFID and Ambient Studio. Knowledge of Ambient Studio is a pre-requisite in order to verify the operational status of the SP3000T and associated configuration.4.2 First Time Use1. Prepare 3000 Series network and Ambient Studio3Ensure that Ambient Studio is running and a GW is powered, and properly connected to the PC. The GW needs to display an ‘online’ status in Ambient Studio. The green LED of the GW needs to be lit. MRs and other SPs can be added to the network as long as care is taken with regards to the network congestion. Navigate to the ‘Drivers’ tab in Ambient Studio and, if necessary, unfold the SP branch in the tree control on the left hand side of the screen.2. Awaken the SP from hibernationGenerally, the devices are delivered in hibernation to avoid unnecessary power drain. Use a Magnetic Mat(MM) to awaken the device, by following the instructions on the MM. Once awake, the SP will send a DDI (4:8:2) message to indicate that it has exited the hibernation state.3 Ensure your Ambient Studio version is the latest version available and that you have all required DDI XML filesAmbient Systems B.V.Page 11 of 19Colosseum 15D • 7521 PV Enschede • The NetherlandsT: +31 88 2624368 • F: +31 88 2624399 • www.ambient-systems.netKvK: 08122911 • VAT NL: 81297625381CHECK.TRACK.TRACE.

Model: SP3000T Revision P1A/01102013USER MANUALSmartPoint SP3000T3. Observe readings from SP in Ambient StudioOnce awakened, the device will adopt operational status. The SP is now visible in Ambient Studio. In default configuration, the SP will report temperature every 15 minutes in a message from the DDI driver DDI(11:1:1) TMP::TMP102. In the ‘DDI’ tab of Ambient Studio, set the filter to select the ID of the device. The received queue should display all received DDI(11:1:1) messages.If the aforementioned messages are being received, the device has started correctly and is operational.If the SP does not report periodically, or sends out messages of DDI type FLUSHPUSH, it is possible that the device does not have a sufficient connection with the infrastructure. Use the Ambient Studio ‘Map’ view to visualize the infrastructure and SP links. When the DDI (3:9) Network::SmartPoint driver has been enabled, it will periodically PUSH network link quality information updates. If the reported RSSI values are approaching to the lower limit ???, either a MR needs to be added to the network, or the device needs to be moved closer to a MR or GW.Ambient Systems B.V.Page 12 of 19Colosseum 15D • 7521 PV Enschede • The NetherlandsT: +31 88 2624368 • F: +31 88 2624399 • www.ambient-systems.netKvK: 08122911 • VAT NL: 81297625381CHECK.TRACK.TRACE.

This can be used in various ways to attach the device to the required surface, e.g. bolt and magnet, cord, or tie wrap.5 CalibrationAmbient offers a calibration service which allows the calibration of the internal sensor(s). This calibration is performed by an independent certified calibration institute. Contact our support department for more information.It is also possible to manually “calibrate” the sensor via the corresponding driver, e.g. DDI (11:1:1) Temperature:TP102.Ambient Systems B.V.Page 13 of 19Colosseum 15D • 7521 PV Enschede • The NetherlandsT: +31 88 2624368 • F: +31 88 2624399 • www.ambient-systems.netKvK: 08122911 • VAT NL: 81297625381CHECK.TRACK.TRACE.

Model: SP3000T Revision P1A/01102013USER MANUALSmartPoint SP3000T6 Powering OptionsThe SP3000T has an internal battery pack which, even in hibernation will be subject to a minute and continuous drain and should typically be replaced once every 5 years4. Ambient offers a refurbishment service for devices which require a battery replacement. Contact our support department for more information.4 Under the assumption that power loss occurs once every month for a period of 24 hours.Ambient Systems B.V.Page 14 of 19Colosseum 15D • 7521 PV Enschede • The NetherlandsT: +31 88 2624368 • F: +31 88 2624399 • www.ambient-systems.netKvK: 08122911 • VAT NL: 81297625381CHECK.TRACK.TRACE.
