What is Web Wing WL RTR-5W?

The RTR-5W not only serves as a base station for the wireless downloading of recorded

data from our compact waterproof Wireless Communication RTR-5 Series Data Loggers,

but, moreover, the Web Wing WL RTR-5W serves as a network base station that allows

you to monitor and view current readings and gather recorded data via LAN or Internet

connection.

ɡExamples of Usage

- Recording measurements taken from various measuring instruments such as ﬂow

meters, power meters, and analyzers.

- Data recording of moving objects and rotating objects on a production line.

- Temperature and humidity management in high humidity environments such as brewing

and crop cultivation.

- Measurement in places where wiring is difﬁcult or impossible.

* The RTR-5W is designed solely for network communication. It does not include any RS-232 or USB communication interface. To make

use of this product you must connect it to a network. Moreover, in order to use this product via the Internet you will need other devices

(such as a router) and must ﬁrst make necessary arrangements with a provider for a line and get a ﬁxed IP address, domain, etc....

* When making settings in an RTR-5W without any settings already made (when purchased or after resetting), it is necessary to carry

out these settings using a wired LAN connection. After having made all the necessary settings via the wired connection, it is possible to

use a wireless LAN connection.
