Switching between operating modes


Operating modes

The device has four operating modes:

  • Reset: System (re-)start; both LEDs fade in and out.
  • Active mode (ON): Periodic measurements and data transmissions; green LED flashes for each measurement.
  • Sleep mode (OFF): No measurements and data transmissions (power save mode, for shelf storage). LEDs are off.
  • Test mode: Measurements and data transmissions at fastest possible rates; blue LED is on. NOTE: Use only momentarily, e.g. for testing the sensor or the wireless connection. The device will switch automatically to active mode after 20 minutes.

Switching between operating modes

To check whether the device is active or in sleep mode (on or off), push the button twice; if the blue LED goes on and off, the device is in active mode; otherwise, the device is in sleep mode. 

To turn on a device from sleep mode, push and hold the button for 3 seconds until the LEDs fade in and out and wait 3 seconds. To turn off, push and hold the button for 3 seconds until the LEDs flash three times.

To perform a device reset, switch to sleep mode first (if necessary) then switch to active mode.

To switch between active and test mode, push the button for 1 second (blue LED on / off). If the blue LED is off, the device is in active or sleep mode. If the blue LED is on, the device is in test mode.
