1 Preface
1.1 What is the SmartPoint SP3000T
The 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 Features
1. Accurate Temperature Sensor
The internal TMP102 temperature sensor ???
2. Low Power
1 Assuming factory settings of the ESP3000T/H/CO2 and default security settings of the 3000
Series Infrastructure.

SmartPoint SP3000T
The internal temperature sensor is best-in-class with regards to energy
consumption and enables long-term battery-operated usage.
3. Long Range
The SP3000T has a combined Power Amplifier (PA) & Low Noise Amplifier
(LNA) offering maximum radio range.
4. Easy Installation
Due to the fact that the SP3000T is powered by an internal battery, it can be
configured and installed within minutes.
5. Automated Logging & Flushing2
The 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.

3 Product Types
There are four different types of the SP3000T, namely:
•SP3000T
•SP3000TH
•SP3000TERS
•SP3000T1W
The SP3000T only measures temperature. 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.

4 Installation
4.1 Preparation
Before 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 Use
1. Prepare 3000 Series network and Ambient Studio3
Ensure 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 hibernation
Generally, 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 files

3. Observe readings from SP in Ambient Studio
Once 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.

4.3 Mounting
The SP3000T has a single mounting hole in the centre of the casing. 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 Calibration
Ambient 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.

6 Powering Options
The 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.

7 LED Behavior
7.1 Awaken from hibernation
When the SP awakens from hibernation, the device will flash the internal LED several
times.
7.2 Rapid Response mode
After awakening from hibernation, the device enters a rapid response mode for a
period of 15 minutes. During this period, the device will flash the internal LED every
30 seconds.
7.3 Normal operation
During normal operation (default configuration), the SP does not flash the internal
LED.
It is possible to configure the SP to flash the internal LED upon status change of the
internal reed switch. See DDI (17:2) Contact:Reed for more details.
