FCC ID: M5ZPRO1Installation and Operation Instructions for the Wireless Temperature Probe,Model WOW-PRO.Point Six, Inc.Wireless Temperature Sensor ProbeModel WOW-PRO1Installation and Operation InstructionsThe WOW-PRO1 wireless temperature sensor transmits both a digital temperature and aunique serial number to a 418 MHz receiver. The WOW is enclosed in a 304 stainlesssteel tube enclosure for direct food penetration in the environment to be measured.WOW-PRO1 is battery operated.Application: Apply the sensor to the food object by penetrating the food to bemonitored with the pointed end of the tube. Make sure that the penetration is at least 1inch past the tapered point.Service Function: The wireless temperature sensor probe has an installation modeswitch. A momentary magnetic reed switch will start the convert/transmit cycles. Whennew and until this is feature is activated the WOWPRO1 will not transmit. TheWOWPRO1 will transmit a special installation status mark in the data packetimmediately after the installation/start switch is activated. After the start furtheractivations of the installation switch will result in the immediate transmission oftemperature, ID and installation status mark.Battery: A 3.0-3.6 Volt lithium battery powers the WOWPRO1 wireless temperaturesensor probe. The battery will last for more than 10 years in the idle state (as shippedfrom the manufacturer). The WOWPRO1 will transmit data for as long as 10 years at arate of once each minute once started. The WOW is completely enclosed in 304 stainlesssteel tupe. The user cannot replace the battery. The WOWPRO1 may be placed in aquiescent state (battery life greater than 10 years and no transmissions) by holding amagnet at the base of the antenna between the 304 stainless steel tube and the SMAconnector for more than 5 seconds.
The Point Six, Inc. 418 MHz wireless temperature transmitters require a compatiblereceiver with the ability to receive, error check and provide RS232 and RS422/485interface. This document describes the data format provided by the HA8-WOW, HA9-WOW or HA10-WOW 418 MHz. Receivers.The transmit packet from a receiver is approximately 15 milliseconds in duration andconsists of 13 bytes of data:1-byte ID/Mode field8-byte serial number2-byte temperature data2-byte CRC-16 error checkThe WOW receivers process this packet. The receivers perform a CRC-16 error checkon the packet. If the data is not accurate it is discarded. When a packet is received that iserror free it is converted to a 29-character packet and transmitted out the serial port at19,200 Baud. The data is transmitted serially in ASCII Hex format and terminated with aCR character. This format requires two bytes for each byte of data; 14 data bytes x 2=28plus the CR is 29 charactersThe resulting binary data format of the packet is:1-byte ID field this field will contain a byte whose LSBit indicates the servicestate of the transmitter, 0=normal, 1=service mode.8-byte serial# this field contains the serial number of the 1-Wire sensor.2-byte temperature this field contains the temperature data stored MSB first in two'scompliment 16-bit form of 1/16 deg. C units.2-byte CRC-16 this is the originally received data packet CRC as described above.1-byte checksum the checksum is a mod 256 sum of all the ASCII character valuesin the response but does not include the CRExample:D4287F44040000005A01602ED477<CR>This field is the mode indicator, the LS-bit which indicates theservice state of the transmitter, 0=normal, 1=service mode.D4287F44040000005A01602ED477<CR>This field is the unique serial number of the 1-Wire temperaturesensor.
D4287F44040000005A01602ED477<CR>This is the temperature data field; two's compliment 16-bit datastored MSB first in 1/16 deg. C units. The value shown is +22Deg. C.D4287F44040000005A01602ED477<CR>This field is the CRC-16 error check as was originally received andchecked. This CRC is over the first 11 bytes of the packet startingwith the mode flags and ending with inclusion of the temperaturedata.D4287F44040000005A01602ED477<CR>This field is the mod 256 sum of all the ASCII character values inthe response but does not include the <CR>.D4287F44040000005A01602ED477<CR>This is the CR terminator, 0Dhex.
FCC Radio Frequency Interference StatementWireless Temperature Sensor FCC ID: M5ZPRO1NOTE: This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits fora Class B digital device, pursuant to Part 15, Subpart B, of the FCC Rules. Thisequipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency energy. If notinstalled and used in accordance with the instructions, it may cause interferenceto radio communications.The limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against suchinterference in a residential situation. However, there is no guarantee thatinterference will not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment doescause interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined byturning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try and correct theinterference by one or more of the following measures:! Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna of the affected radio or television! Increase the separation between the equipment and the affected receiver.! Connect the equipment and the affected receiver to power outlets on separatecircuits.! Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.MODIFICATIONSChanges or modifications not expressly approved by Point Six Inc. could voidthe user's authority to operate the equipment.Wireless Temperature Sensor Data FormatTHIS DEVICE COMPLIES WITH PART 15 OF THE FCC RULES, OPERATION ISSUBJECT TO THE FOLLOWING TWO CONDITIONS: (1) THIS DEVICE MAYNOT CAUSE HARMFUL INTERFERENCE AND (2) THIS DEVICE MUST ACCEPTANY INTERFERENCE RECEIVED, INCLUDING INTERFERENCE THAT MAYCAUSE UNDESERED OPERATIONFCC ID: M5ZPRO1MADE IN USA
