The AKCP Temperature sensors are of the semiconductor, microprocessor controlled type, designed to record accurate temperature data. It is compatible with all AKCP sensorProbes.
Up to 2 sensors can be plugged into RJ-45 jacks on the sensorProbe2 and 8 sensors on the sensorProbe8. Each sensor comes with a free CAT 5 cable 5 feet in length. You can connect the sensor using your own CAT 5 cable up to 1000 feet, allowing the sensors to be positioned in hot spots.
The sensorProbe auto detects the presence of the temperature sensor once plugged into the RJ-45 port. A built in graph option is included on all sensorProbes for graphing temperature variations over a period of time. Each temperature sensor has its own SNMP OID so that the data can be collected over network and graphed using external application like MRTG.
The temperature sensor can be read using included SNMP utilities to allow graphing and data logging at 0.5°C resolution.
