In order to achieve the most accurate temperature possible and to trigger an alarm if the room temperature exceeds the limit value, we recommend calibrating the temperature measurement at the final installation location. This is especially necessary for sensors with Ethernet (PoE) connection, since a certain intrinsic heat falsifies the measurement. For MultiSensors with radio and battery supply, the influence of the intrinsic heat is not present.<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-ht-blocks-messages wp-block-hb-message wp-block-hb-message--withicon is-style-info\">Kentix MultiSensors are not calibrated measuring devices, but alarm devices whose measuring accuracy is completely sufficient for reliable reporting and documentation of limit value violations.<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">However, in order to obtain a good measurement result with reproducible measured values in the event of an alarm, the MultiSensor should be calibrated to the respective installation location after installation. To do this, the temperature in the immediate vicinity (approx. 5-10 cm away) of the MultiSensor must be measured comparatively with a room thermometer that is as accurate as possible. If there is a deviation in temperature between the MultiSensor and the thermometer, the temperature value can be corrected. This is done by entering the determined temperature difference between the MultiSensor and the room thermometer as a correction offset in the KentixONE software. The correction also has a direct influence on the measurement of the relative humidity and on the dew point calculation of the MultiSensor.<\/p>\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table\"><table class=\"has-fixed-layout\"><thead><tr><th>Step<\/th><th>Note<\/th><\/tr><\/thead><tbody><tr><td>Install MultiSensor at the destination.<\/td><td>The position and orientation of the sensor should not be changed afterwards.<br\/>Please note the following:<br\/>&#8211; Mount with the X air opening facing downwards<br\/>&#8211; Do not mount in the air flow<br\/>&#8211; Ventilation vents of the sensor must be unobstructed<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Perform configuration of the MultiSensor with Kentix ONE.<\/td><td><\/td><\/tr><tr><td>At the earliest 30 minutes after commissioning<br\/>, adjust the temperature of the MultiSensor to the room temperature.<\/td><td>To do this, measure the temperature with an external reference thermometer in the immediate vicinity, approx. 5-10 cm from the MultiSensor.

The device must be accessible to the central KentixONE instance on the network side. Depending on the device type, a communication key and the IP address or DHCP name of the central KentixONE instance must also be set on the device (MultiSensors, AccessManager, SmartPDU). IP cameras or IO modules, on the other hand, can be integrated directly into KentixONE.   <\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">All information about the software can be found in the <a href=\"https:\/\/docs.kentix.com\/kentixone\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">KentixONE<\/a> section and the associated documentation.<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-ht-blocks-messages wp-block-hb-message wp-block-hb-message--withicon is-style-info\">Before starting the configuration, make sure that the software on all network-compatible Kentix devices is up-to-date.
