Thank you for choosing an HWM data logger(s), we trust it will provide you with many years
of service.
The individual configuration of your logger(s) may differ slightly from the detailed
descriptions that follow, but any additional setup information that you need, can easily be
obtained from our customer support team.

As you unpack your new logger, please confirm that you have the following parts required
to install the equipment. If there are any omissions, please contact our sales team to rectify

IR Reader (optional –available in serial or USB types)

Please dispose of your waste packaging responsibly.
Before proceeding to site for physical installation, please take the time to configure your
logger in an office environment. Most settings can be configured before visiting site and this
will save time at the point of install, especially if the weather is bad.
You will need to have:-
A PC with Windows 7/8 installed (Radwin also supports Windows XP & Vista)
A USB to Serial adaptor (if required to use with serial IR reader).
A description and reference number for the installation site:
The reference number is split into a Zone and Location format to allow for grouping
of individual “Locations” into larger regions or “Zones”.
The format of the number is configured during the initial installation of the software
but essentially is a 7 character code, e.g. AB123CD
Installing the software
1. Insert the CD-ROM supplied into your CD drive.
(If your PC does not have a CD drive, then either copy the files from the CD-ROM
onto a memory stick, or download and run the Radwin installation file from the HWM

A note about Logger Identity Selection Method:-
A logger is identified with a single 7 digit reference ID.
If you select Single Identity from the menu then you can
use the full 7 digits how you like.
E.g. account no, customer number, etc.
However, when installing a larger fleet of loggers, Radwin allows you to group
individual logger Locations into larger Zones. This allows for geographic regions
(Zones) to be easily indexed where large fleets are involved.
So, Locations refer to loggers
Zones contain Locations (loggers)
Many Zones may be created
Each Zone may contain many Locations (loggers)
For example, split a town up into Zones then split the Zones up into Locations and
deploy loggers within each Zone.
If you choose this (default) option you will be prompted (later on) to decide how the 7
digits are allocated. E.g. ZZ/LLLLL means you can have up to 99 zones with 99,999
loggers in each zone, or ZZZ/LLLL gives 999 zones with 9,999 loggers in each and
so on.
In this way you can develop an indexing method to allow you to quickly find sites you
wish to examine.
4. From the Logger Identity Selection Method,
choose the option as described above.
If you wish to change to location of the folder where the
database is stored, click <<Browse…>>
Then navigate to the desired folder and click <<Open>> to choose the folder.
When prompted below click <<Yes>> to confirm the folder choice.
5. Now click <<OK>> to create the database.
If you chose Zones and Locations in step 4, chose your
format for the ID number. The default is the UK postcode
format, e.g. AB12 3CD
Then click <<OK>> to continue.
Note: The Database format CANNOT be changed from this point. If you need to
change it later you will need to delete the \DATA folder and start again.
