RMS-I-STH Temperature/Humidity Sensor
The dual sensor has both temperature and humidity measuring capabilities in a single sensor.This means a
single port can have two sensors, saving ports for additional sensors.A specially designed CAT 5 cable assures
a correct reading up to 100 feet, and is in standard length 30cm.When the dual sensor is plugged into the RJ-45
port, the system will auto detect the sensor, and it will display Temperature and Humidity for each port to which
a dual sensor is connected. A built in graph option is available on the system for graphing temperature and
humidity variations over a period of time.
The SNMP OID for the temperature sensor on RJ45#1 is .1.3.6.1.4.1.3854.1.2.2.1.16.1.3.0
The SNMP OID for the humidity sensor on RJ45#1 is .1.3.6.1.4.1.3854.1.2.2.1.17.1.3.0

Configuring the Dual sensor:
On the device click on “Sensors” tab and when you move with cursor on “Dual sensor” , the window shown below
will pop up. Then select the emperature or humidity sensor. Since all of Cone’s intelligent sensors are configured
similarly, not every field is described below. The descriptions below describe the fields which are specific to the
humidity sensor.
Temperature
A commonly used SNMP OID for the temperature sensor is the number of degrees. This information can be used
for graphing the sensor.
The SNMP OID for the temperature sensor on RJ45#1 is .1.3.6.1.4.1.3854.1.2.2.1.16.1.3.0
Current Reading: The number of Degrees is displayed in this read-only field. This is an integer SNMP OID field
which has a precision of 1 degree. The value can be polled via SNMP, and the data can be used to graph the
temperature variations. The value displayed can be in Fahrenheit or Celsius. If communication to the temperature
sensor is lost, the sensor value -512 will be returned by a snmpget.
Status: If at any time communications with the temperature sensor are lost, the status of the temperature sensor
is changed to sensorError. If communications with the temperature sensor are reestablished the status will be
formed by comparing the Degree to the high and low thresholds.
Degree Type: The Degree Type can be set to Fahrenheit or Celsius. When the Degree Type is changed all the
threshold fields will change their values automatically. The system stores the thresholds for both Celsius and
Fahrenheit independently allowing you to switch between the two.
Reading Offset: The Reading Offset parameter can be used to calibrate temperature and humidity sensors
sensors. If for example the actual reading of a sensor is 28 degrees Celsius and the Reading Offset is set to 2
the temperature will be displayed as 30 degrees Celsius.
