EMC Considerations
Whenever EMC is an issue, always use shielded cables.
Never run signal and power wires in the same conduit.
Use twisted-pair wires for signal connections.
Install Ferrite Bead(s) on signal wires close to the instrument if EMC problems persist.
Failure to follow all instructions and warnings may result in injury!
1.2 Before You Begin
Inspecting Your Shipment: Remove the packing slip and verify that you have received
everything listed. Inspect the container and equipment for signs of damage as soon as
you receive the shipment. Note any evidence of rough handling in transit. Immediately
report any damage to the shipping agent. The carrier will not honor damage claims
unless all shipping material is saved for inspection. After examining and removing the
contents, save the packing material and carton in the event reshipment is necessary.
Customer Service: If you need assistance, please contact the Customer Service
Department nearest you.
Manuals, Software: The latest Operation Manual as well as free software and iServer

1.3 Description
View Temperature + Barometric Pressure with a Web Browser. The iServer let’s you
monitor and record Temperature and Barometric Pressure over an Ethernet network or
the Internet with no special software except a Web browser. The iServer serves Active
Web Pages to display real time readings and display charts of temperature and
barometric pressure, or log data in standard data formats for use in a spreadsheet or
data acquisition program such as Excel or Visual Basic.
Adjustable Charts. The Java™ Applet chart scales are fully adjustable on the fly. For
example, the chart can display one day, one week, one month or one year. Temperature
and barometric pressure can be charted across the full span (0-70ºC) or within any
narrow range (such as 20-30ºC). Barometric pressure can be displayed in hectopascals
(hPa), millimeters of Mercury (mmHg), or inches of Mercury (inHg).
