Sensor Installation
The HBtemp sensors are designed to be mounted next to the existing
thermometers in your equipment. At the top of the HBtemp is a mounting tab
to allow for easy installation. The sensor should be mounted at the warmest
point in the equipment such as next to or above the equipment door.
Identify location to mount sensor, and mount near the front of the unit.
Zip tie sensor to location with tab facing up, trim excess zip tie.
Record serial number of sensor with name of equipment installed in.

WaSP Installation
In order for the HBtemp sensors to consistently report temperature data every ten minutes it is important
that the WaSP is centrally located in the kitchen so all the sensors will be in range. The standard
range of the sensors is 300 feet, but given the metal doors and thermal insulation of refrigeration
equipment the range will be reduced. In a typical kitchen the location of a wall outlet for power will likely
be a greater factor on the mounting of the WaSP then any other factor, we do recommend however
to be as centrally located as possible. When powered the WaSP has a BLUE power light that will be ON.
When the WaSP is connected to your WiFi the YELLOW light will be ON.

WaSP Configuration
The Wireless Sensor Portal (WaSP) collects the wireless Bluetooth data from the HBtemp sensors
and transmits the temperature to the Internet every 5 minutes. In order to do this it first must be
configured to connect to your WiFi network. To do this you will need the following WiFi network
information: SSID and PASSWORD
The next step is to configure the WaSP from the mobile application. Please see WaSP Configuration
Guide for detailed instructions on setting the configuration based on your phone type.

HBRepeater Installation
The thick insulated walls of a Walk-in unit can dampen the wireless signal from the
HBtemp sensor. If the sensor does not consistently report every 10 minutes to the mobile
application the signal may be too weak to reach the WaSP.
A HBRepeater can be mounted directly opposite the sensor on the outside wall of the
walk-in to boost the signal as shown:
In the case where two walk-ins are built beside each other a single HBRepeater can
be used to boost the signal from both HBtemp sensors. The diagram below shows
placement options for two different configurations of walk-ins.
Sensor Point Configuration
At this point your system should now be reporting temperature data. The last step is
to rename the sensor points in the web-site with name of the equipment that the
sensor was installed in. This is also where the temperature profile of the sensor point
is selected. Please see the Honeycomb Sensor Point Configuration Instruction sheet.
If you have any additional questions please do not hesitate to contact your customer
representative directly.
