ȺOther FunctionsȻ
Warning Monitoring SettingsȤ from RTR-5W for Windows
Monitoring at each Location for warnings is carried out and if any of the gathered data exceeds
the set limit, a notifi cation can be sent via e-mail to your computer or cellular phone.Also,
because there is a built-in external output terminal, it is possible to connect to an external device,
such an alarm or light, so that a notifi cation of a warning can be seen or heard onsite.
If the RTR-5W is not connected to the Internet, warning report e-mail cannot be sent.
Auto Download Settings Ȥfrom RTR-5W for Windows
The downloading of data can be set to be automatically carried out at a specifi ed time or at a set
interval of time.
For Auto download to occur at a set time, it is necessary for RTR-5W for Windows to be open.
Gather Current DataȤfrom RTR-5W for Windows
RTR-5W communicates with Remote Units to gather and display the current measurement
readings.Also, by setting a communication interval, the current readings will be continuously
gathered and displayed at that interval.
If you are using RVR-52A to record Pulse Data, the current reading will be displayed as the
average of recorded readings during the set recording interval. If you are recording the time of
an Event, the current reading will show HI or LO (Rising Edge or Falling Edge.)
Transfer DataȤ from RTR-5W for Windows
The RTR-5W retrieves and stores data at a regular interval set in [Location (RTR-5W)
Properties].This stored data is transferred and displayed for each Remote Unit.
* Event Data recorded with RVR-52A cannot be viewed in this manner.
