February 23, 2011 - T&D introduced RTR-500DC, a Handheld Wireless Data Collector featuring a large, easy to read graphical display. The RTR-500DC is ideal for applications where items to be monitored are in motion, or where physical access to the data logger itself is inconvenient or impractical. Examples might be display cases, mobile applications or outdoor use. The unit can monitor and download data from up to 224 separate loggers and stores up to 256,000 readings, which can then be uploaded to a PC via a USB connection. The RTR-500DC displays the data on a graphical display with zoom function.
The unit includes a "search" mode for locating data loggers and a signal strength indicator. This pocket sized unit weighs only 4.4 oz and operates for over 100 hours on 2 AAA batteries. The transmission distance is up to 500 feet, line of sight, which can be extended with the use of wireless repeaters.
