Toconfigurealoggerforusewiththegateway:

a. TapDevices,andthenLoggersatthetopofthescreen.

b. TaptheloggertoconnecttoitandthentapConfigure.

c. Makesure“fromaGateway”ischeckedunderUpload

d. Chooseotherloggersettingskeepinginmindthe

following:

Aloggingintervalof5minutesorslowerisoptimalfor

thegateway,althoughitcansupportalogginginterval

downto1minute(seeViewingDataUploadedfrom

theGatewayfordetails).

Ifyouselectaloggingintervalfasterthan1minute,the

dataloggedatthefasterratewillnotbeavailablefor

thegatewaytoupload.UseHOBOmobiletoreadout

theloggerandretrievethisdata.

Burstloggingandstatisticsarenotsupportedbythe

gateway.UseHOBOmobiletoreadouttheloggerand

retrievethisdata.

ForMX1104,MX1105,MX2200,MX2300,andMX2501

loggers,Bluetoothisautomaticallyenabledtoensure

regulargatewayuploadscanoccur.

ThegatewayusesBluetoothLowEnergyto

communicateovertheairwithloggerswithinrange.If

MX2200orMX2501loggersorthetopendofan

MX2001loggerisdeployedinwater,thegatewaywill

notbeabletocommunicatewiththem.

e. TapStart.SeetheHOBOmobileUser’sGuideat

www.onsetcomp.com/HOBOmobileformoredetailson

usingHOBOmobile.

Thegatewaywillregularlycheckloggerswithinrangeand

uploaddatatoHOBOlink.SeeViewingDataUploadedfromthe

Gatewayfordetailsonworkingwithdata.

DeploymentandMountingGuidelines

Followtheseguidelineswhenselectingalocationtoplacethe

gateway:

ThegatewayrequiresACpowerandaninternet

connection.Selectalocationforthegatewaythatisnear

anACoutletandanEthernetport(ifusingEthernet)or

withinrangeofyourWiFirouter(ifusingWiFi).

Therangeforsuccessfulwirelesscommunicationbetween

thegatewayandloggersisapproximately30.5m(100ft)

withfullline‐of‐sight.Ifthereareobstaclesbetweenthe

gatewayandtheloggers,suchaswallsormetalobjects,

theconnectionmaybeintermittentandtherange

betweenloggersandthegatewaywillbedecreased.Test

therangebypositioningyourphoneortabletwhereyou

wanttodeploythegateway.Ifthephoneortabletcan

connecttoaloggerwithHOBOmobilefromthatlocation,

thenthegatewayshouldbeabletoconnecttothelogger

aswell.

Ifyouaremountingthegatewayonawallorotherflat

surface,mountthefaceofthegatewaytowardsthe

coverageareawiththelogoorientedhorizontallyas

HOBOMXGatewayManual

1‐800‐LOGGERS3www.onsetcomp.com

shownbelowforoptimalsignalstrength.Alsomountaway

fromthecornerswherewallsmeetandabovethetallest

obstructionsintheroom.



Ifyouaremountingthegatewayonaceiling,placeiton

thelowestavailablemountingpointfacingdownwardsfor

optimalsignalstrength.AlsomountawayfromHVACducts

andbelowI‐beamsorsupportbeams.

Usetheenclosedmountingkittomountthegatewaytoa

flatsurface.Usetheself‐tappingscrewsandanchorsto

affixthegatewaymountingplatetoawallorceiling.



Ifyouaremountingthegatewayonawoodensurface,use

boththegatewaymountingplateandthemounting

bracketshownbelow.Placethegatewaymountingplate

overthemountingbracketsotheholesarealigned.Use

themachinescrewstoaffixitthesurface(youmayneed

todrillpilotholesinthesurfacefirst).



Oncethegatewaymountingplateisinplaceonthewallor

otherflatsurface,usethefourholesonthebackofthe

gatewaytoattachittothefourclipsonthemounting

plate.



ConnectingtotheGateway

Toconnecttothegatewaywithyourphoneortablet:

1. InHOBOmobile,tapDevicesandthentapGatewaysatthe

topofthescreen.

2. Tapthegatewayinthelisttoconnecttoit.

Ifthegatewaydoesnotappearinthelistorifitishaving

troubleconnecting,followthesetips:

Makesurethegatewayiswithinrangeofyourphoneor

tabletwhenconnectingtoit.Ifyourmobiledevicecan

connecttothegatewayintermittentlyorlosesits

connection,moveclosertothegateway,withinsightif

possible.Checkthegatewaysignalstrengthicon

inthe

apptomakesurethereisastrongsignalbetweenthe

phoneandthegateway.Themorebluebars,thestronger

thesignal.

Changetheorientationofyourphoneortablettoensure

theantennainyourdeviceispointedtowardthegateway

(refertoyourdevice’smanualfortheantennalocation).

Obstaclesbetweentheantennainthedeviceandthe

gatewaymayresultinintermittentconnections.

Waitafewminutesandthentrytoconnectagain.The

gatewaywillnotbedisplayedinHOBOmobilewhenitis

bootingorwhenanautomaticfirmwareupgradeis

underway.

IfyourecentlypoweredupthegatewayandtheLEDis

continuouslyflashing,butthegatewayisnotdisplayedin

HOBOmobile,thendisconnectthepowerfromthe

gatewayandplugitbackin.Thegatewayshouldthen

appearinHOBOmobileafteritpowersbackup.

Onceyourphoneortabletisconnectedtothegateway,you

cancheckhowmanyloggersareinrange.Youcanalsoselect

oneofthefollowingactions:

Configure.EnteragatewaynameandtapStart.

NetworkSettings.ChangetheEthernetorWiFisettings.

Whenthegatewayisconfigured,itisautomaticallylockedto

preventunauthorizedwirelessaccess.Pressthebuttonnextto

theLEDonthegatewayforatleast10secondstoresetor

unlockthegateway.

ViewingDataUploadedfromtheGateway

ArunninggatewayusesBluetoothtoregularlymonitorloggers

withinrangethathavebeenconfiguredforusewiththe

gateway.Newloggerdatareceivedbythegatewayisthen

uploadedviaWiFiorEthernettoHOBOlinkevery5minutes.

Tocheckwhenthelatestdatawasuploaded,clickDevicesand

thenMXDevices.IntheMXDevicestable,lookforthelogger

(byname,serialnumber,and/ormodelnumber)andcheckthe

lastsensorreadinglisted.Youcanalsoseethedateandtime

theloggerwasconfiguredandwhichgatewayuploadedthe

data.

ToviewloggerdatauploadedtoHOBOlinkfromthegateway:

Setupadashboardforreal‐timemonitoringofthe

conditionswheretheloggerislocated.

Exportthedatatoafile.

Setupadatadeliveryschedulesothatuploadeddatais

automaticallydeliveredtoyouviaemailorFTPona

scheduleyouspecify.

SeetheHOBOlinkHelpfordetailsonhowtosetupa

dashboard,exportdata,orcreateadatadeliveryschedule.

Notes:

Aloggingintervalof5minutesorslowerisoptimalforthe

gateway,althoughitcansupportaloggingintervaldown

to1minute.Iftheloggingintervalissetfrom1minuteup

to5minutes,theremaybeoccasionalmissingindividual

datapointsinexportedfiles.Boththegatewayandloggers

regularly“advertise”orsendoutBluetoothsignals.The

rateatwhichthesesignalsaresentmaydifferbetween

thegatewayandtheloggersandcanresultinoccasional

datapointsnotbeinguploaded.UseHOBOmobiletoread

outtheloggerandgenerateareportwithalldatapoints

forthecurrentdeployment.

Nodatawillbeuploadedforloggersconfiguredwith

loggingintervalsfasterthan1minute.Ifyourdeployment

requiresloggingfasterthan1minute,useHOBOmobileto

readouttheloggerandgenerateareportwiththisdata.

Burstloggingandstatisticsarenotsupportedbythe

gateway.Ifyouconfiguredtheloggerwiththesesettings,

useHOBOmobiletoreadouttheloggerandcreatea

reportwithanyburstloggingdataandstatistics.

IfnodataisappearinginHOBOlink,dothefollowing:

CheckthegatewaystatusinHOBOlink.Ifthegatewayis

missing,checktomakesureitispluggedin,thenetwork

settingsarecorrect,anditiswithinrangeoftheloggers.

Ifyoujustsetupagatewayandconfiguredloggers,itmay

takeafewminutesbeforedatabeginsappearingin

HOBOlink.WaitafewminutesandthencheckHOBOlink

again.

Makesuretheloggerwasconfiguredwith“froma

Gateway”selectedunderUploadDatatoHOBOlink.Ifyou

selected“fromHOBOlink”insteadof“fromaGateway,”

thendatawillonlybeuploadedtoHOBOlinkwhenyou

readouttheloggerwithyourphoneortablet.The

gatewaywillnotmonitortheloggeranduploaddatawhen

“fromHOBOlink”isselected.

CheckthatyouareloggedintothesameHOBOlink

HOBOmobile.

Makesuretheloggershavestartedloggingandarenot

waitingforadelayedstartorapushbuttonstart.

Makesuretheloggerisnotdeployedinwater.The

GatewayFirmwareUpdates

Occasionalautomaticfirmwareupdatesmaybenecessaryfor

thegateway.Whilethefirmwareupdateistakingplace,devices
