Safety and regulatory information

Product notices and warnings

DANGER

This product is intended to alert the user to probable hazardous conditions. It is

not an item of Personal Protective Equipment and it is not an item of life-safety

equipment.

All users must be thoroughly trained in the proper operation of the AT-100 prior to

use. This includes reading and fully understanding all instructions and warnings

stated in the Setup Guide and User Guide.

DANGER

The AT-100 product must only be used by personnel trained in and familiar with

the uses, proper operation, features, and full functionality of the product,

including training in simulated fire conditions such as controlled live burns. Use of

the AT-100 by unauthorised, unfamiliar or untrained users could result in death or

serious injury.

WARNING

The service life of the AT-100 depends in part on how it is used and the

environmental conditions in which it is used. Under heavy usage, or under extreme

environmental conditions, the service life of the equipment may be reduced.

WARNING

Repeated exposure to high temperature environments without adequate periods

for the unit to self-cool may result in degradation or loss of sensory and/or visual

warnings, and could cause damage to the internal components. Be sure to allow

adequate cool-down periods between high temperature exposures.

WARNING

Exposure to high temperature environments for an extended period of time may

result in degradation or loss of the sensory and visual warnings provided by the AT-

100. Be sure not to overexpose or heat saturate the equipment beyond the design

tolerances of the system.

WARNING

It is important to test the AT-100 and any other associated accessories often to

ensure that the equipment is functional before entering a hazardous environment.

Always also perform a visual check on the equipment to validate that it has not

been damaged or degraded prior to use.

DANGER

The AT-100 is not rated as Intrinsically Safe. Do not use the system in

environments or atmospheres where static or a spark may cause explosion.

DANGER

Never use the AT-100 as the sole source of environmental temperature situational

awareness. If system failure occurs, you may experience degraded situational

awareness, or may become disoriented or overexposed to a hazardous

environment, which could result in death or serious injury.

PC Application

Installation

To install the software, please contact our sales team who will arrange for an engineer to install your

software remotely.

Future versions will include an installation programme which will complete the process

automatically.

Starting the Application

To start, first connect your AT-100 to a spare USB port on your computer using the USB cable

provided. Unscrew the battery cap to expose the USB port in the device. Remove the batteries and

connect the USB cable. The front of the device will illuminate in green to indicate USB is connected.

Locate the shortcut to the application and double left click it to start. The application will start in a

new window.

Four tabs are available: Report, Settings, Info and Update… . Also three information boxes are

shown at the bottom of the window, showing USB connection status, system time and date (from

your computer’s clock), and AT-100 device status. The device status box will update with the current

temperature measured by the device every time the USB link is active.

V0.2 Page 6

Report tab

The report tab is used for downloading recorded temperature data from the device, and provides a

graphical display as well as a text summary.

Select the “Download Data”checkbox. “Summary” will appear next to “chart” to indicate the chart

and data type being transferred. The device user name will appear in the User box, the text window

and the chart, and the serial number will appear in the text window. Summary date, time and

temperature data will be transferred from the device, starting with the most recent records and

proceeding to older records so that the latest data are readily accessible. As the transfer progresses,

2-minute blocks of data are summarised by block reference, start date and time, and maximum

temperature in the right-hand (text) window. After a short delay, the maximum temperature,

thresholds and date/time are plotted on the chart.

When the desired date/time range has been displayed in the text window, left click the “Download

data” checkbox again to terminate the transfer. Left click “OK” when a message box appears

showing “Data download complete”.

The AT-100 records data in 2-minute blocks. Please note that in its default configuration, 2-minute

data blocks are only recorded if they contain at least one temperature record exceeding the active

threshold. This causes gaps in the date/time information (when the temperature was too low to

record) but compresses the data for faster and more efficient transfer.

V0.2 Page 7

You can zoom in to select any particular region of interest on the chart. Move the cursor into the

chart area and position it over the start or end of the region you wish to inspect. Click and hold the

left mouse button, drag the cursor to the other end of the region of interest, and release the left

mouse button. The chart will zoom to show this area, and the “Start” and “End” boxes will show the

selected start and end dates/times.

Now select “Download Data” again. The chart and data windows will clear, “Detailed” will appear

next to “chart” to indicate the chart type is now detailed. The complete data record for the selected

period will be transferred from the device, and the text window will show block reference, start date

and time, and both maximum and minimum temperatures for each 2-minute block. The chart will

update to show full temperature details at one point per second. Left click “OK” when the “Data

download complete” message box appears again.

V0.2 Page 8

Again, you can zoom in on the chart to select an area of interest by dragging the cursor as before. A

horizontal scroll bar will appear with a button to the left. You can use the scroll bar to inspect other

areas of the chart. Left clicking the button will zoom out to the previous zoom level.

The chart can be saved, and/or the text data can be saved or printed, using the “Save Chart”, “Save

Data” and Print Data” buttons.

To access temperature data from a different period, select the “Clear Data” button. This will clear

the chart and text windows and reset the transfer settings. Select the “Download Data” checkbox to

transfer the summary data again, allowing you to select a different region for transferring detailed

data as before.

Settings tab

The settings tab provides facilities for changing the device settings.

Synchronising the clock

To synchronise the AT-100 clock to the current date and time settings on your computer, select the

“Sync AT-100 Clock” button. This will send the current data and time settings to the AT-100, and

initialise it to those settings. Its date and time will then appear in the boxes labelled “AT-100 Clock”.

Administrator settings

To access the Administrator settings, enter the Administrator password in the “Enter password” box,

then select “Unlock”. Facilities will appear to allow you to set and check the user name, a user ID

number, the alarm temperature thresholds and the recording mode.

V0.2 Page 10

To check the contents of the AT-100 at any time, select the “Get Current AT-100 Settings” button.

This will update the grey “Current Settings” boxes from the device. This operation is performed

automatically after successfully entering the Administrator password.

To update any of the user or threshold settings, enter the new text or values in the white “New

Settings” boxes, select the adjacent “Send” button and left click “OK when the data sent message

box appears. When updating more than one temperature threshold, selecting the “Send All

Thresholds” button will update all the values at once.

The user name can hold 32 alpha-numeric characters, and the user ID holds up to 8 digits. Threshold

values can be set between 1°C and 552°C. Values chosen must start with the lowest for Active

Threshold, increasing to the Critical Threshold value.

The recording mode selection determines whether the AT-100 will record data continuously at all

temperatures, or only when the temperature has increased above the active threshold (default

setting). To change the setting, left click the “Recording mode” list button and select the desired

option.

Check for updates: this feature is not implemented yet, as no updates are available.
