Overview
The Onset HOBO MX Analog/Temp/RH/Light (MX1104) and HOBO MX 4-Channel Analog (MX1105) data loggers measure and transmit data wirelessly from indoor environments to a mobile device or computer using Bluetooth Low Energy technology.

Mechanics
The MX1104 model has integrated temperature, relative humidity (RH), and light intensity sensors and one analog input, while the MX1105 model has four analog inputs. Both models support a wide variety of external sensors (sold separately), including self-describing temperature, split-core AC current transformer, 4-20 mA input, and DC voltage input sensors.

Design
The self-describing sensors are designed with integrated strain relief for a secure connection to the loggers and are automatically detected by the HOBOconnect app for easy setup. These compact loggers also have built-in LCD screens to display current sensor readings, logging status, battery use, memory consumption, and more.

Data Retrieval
Using the app, users can configure the loggers, read out and view data, and export the data for further analysis. The loggers can calculate minimum, maximum, average, and standard deviation statistics and can also be configured to trip audible or visual alarms at thresholds users specify. In addition, both loggers support burst logging, in which data is logged at a different interval when sensor readings are above or below certain limits.

SD-VOLT-10 or CABLE-ADAP10 SD-VOLT-24 or CABLE-ADAP24
Measurement Range 0 to 20.1 mA 0 to 2.5 V 0 to 5.0 V 0 to 10 V 0 to 24 V
Accuracy ±0.001 mA ±0.2% of reading ±0.1 mV ±0.1% of reading ±0.2 mV ±0.3% of reading ±0.4 mV ±0.3% of reading ±1.0 mV ±0.3% of reading
Resolution 0.3 µA 40 µV 80 µV 160 µV 384 µV
Logger
Operating Range -20° to 70°C (-4° to 158°F)
Radio Power 1 mW (0 dBm)
Transmission Range Approximately 30.5 m (100 ft) line-of-sight
Wireless Data Standard Bluetooth Low Energy (Bluetooth Smart)
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
Restart Mode Push button
Time Accuracy ±1 minute per month at 25°C (77°F)
Battery Type Two AAA 1.5 V alkaline batteries, user replaceable
Battery Life 1 year, typical with logging interval of 1 minute and Bluetooth Always On enabled; 2 years, typical with logging interval of 1 minute and Bluetooth Always On disabled; and temperatures between 0° and 50°C (32° and 122°F). Faster logging intervals and statistics sampling intervals, burst logging, remaining connected with the app, excessive downloads, and paging may impact battery life.
Memory 4 MB (1.9 million measurements, maximum)
Full Memory Download Time Approximately 4 to 15 minutes depending on the mobile device; may take longer the further the device is from the logger
LCD LCD is visible from 0° to 50°C (32° to 122°F); the LCD may react slowly or go blank in temperatures outside this range
Size 11.28 x 5.41 x 2.92 cm (4.44 x 2.13 x 1.15 in.)
Weight 123 g (4.34 oz)
Environmental Rating IP54

Wildfire Prevention in the Sierra Nevada Region with the Yuba Watershed Institute

Though recent wildfires have sparked new conversations about wildfire management and response, groups like the Yuba Watershed Institute have been monitoring the forests and water resources of the Sierra Nevada region for decades, managing approximately 5,000 acres of land with the Bureau of Land Management (BLM) and about 7,000 acres in private land partnerships. The goal of the Institute is to work with local communities and land agencies to improve watershed and forestry management through informed practices and public outreach. The goals of the Yuba Watershed Institute are three-fold: Improve the ability of fire suppression agencies like the California Department of Forestry and Fire Protection ( CAL FIRE ) and the US Forest Service.

Wave Sensors Integration with NexSens Buoys: A Cutting-Edge Solution for Wave Measurment

Real-time wave data supports accurate weather prediction, safe and efficient maritime operations, and provides valuable safety and operating condition information for recreation and commercial fishing. Understanding wave dynamics also helps with the design of protective coastal structures like seawalls, breakwaters, and jetties. It also supports better prediction of their impact on sediment transport and coastal geomorphology. Wave data is a key factor in qualifying and designing offshore wind farms and harnessing kinetic energy for electrical generation. It helps with the understanding of ocean-atmosphere interactions and contributes to studies of sea-level rise and climate change impacts.
