| Resolution | 0.01% |
| Drift | <1% per year typical |
| Memory | 128 KB (63,488 measurements, maximum) |
| Response Time: Temperature (typical, to 90% of change) | Without Solar Radiation Shield | With RS1/M-RSA Solar Radiation Shield | With RS3-B Solar Radiation Shield | ||||
| internal sensor | 17 minutes in air moving 1 m/sec | 24 minutes in air moving 1 m/sec | N/A | ||||
| Response Time: RH (typical, to 90% of change) | Without Solar Radiation Shield | With RS1/M-RSA Solar Radiation Shield | With RS3-B Solar Radiation Shield | ||||
| internal sensor | 30 seconds in air moving 1 m/sec | 40 seconds in air moving 1 m/sec | N/A |
| Logger | |
| Radio Power | 1 mW (0 dBm) |
| Transmission Range | Approximately 30.5 m (100 ft) line-of-sight |
| Wireless Data Standard | Bluetooth Smart (Bluetooth Low Energy, Bluetooth 4.0) |
| Logger Operating Range | -40° to 70°C (-40° to 158°F) |
| Logging Rate | 1 second to 18 hours |
| Logging Modes | Fixed interval (normal, statistics) or burst |
| Memory Modes | Wrap when full or stop when full |
| Start Modes | Immediate, push button, date & time, or next interval |
| Stop Modes | When memory full, push button, date & time, or after a set logging period |
| Time Accuracy | ±1 minute per month 0° to 50°C (32° to 122°F) |
| Battery Type | 2/3 AA 3.6 Volt lithium, user replaceable |
| Battery Life | 2 years, typical with logging interval of 1 minute and Power Saving Mode disabled; 5 years, typical with logging interval of 1 minute and Power Saving Mode enabled. Faster logging intervals and statistics sampling intervals, burst logging, remaining connected with the app, excessive downloads, and paging may impact battery life. |
| Memory | 128 KB (63,488 measurements, maximum) |
| Full Memory Download Time | Approximately 60 seconds; may take longer the further the device is from the logger |
