Are there Ethernet or Wi-Fi options for the HOBO MicroRX?
The HOBO MicroRX is a cellular station. If you need to monitor via Ethernet or Wi-Fi, you can use the HOBO RX3000 Remote Monitoring Station.
Can I add more plug-and-play smart sensors to my HOBO MicroRX Station?
Yes. You can add the S-ADAPT-6 Consolidator Box to connect up to five additional smart sensors with your MicroRX Station.
Do the S-CIA or S-VIA analog inputs adapters fit in the HOBO MicroRX Station?
No. If you want to use these adapters to connect analog sensors, use the S-ADAPT-6 Consolidator Box and mount the adapters in this.
What tools will I need to install the HOBO MicroRX?
If you are mounting your station with cable ties, you will need diagonal cutting pliers for cutting off excess cable tie. If you are mounting with U-bolts, you will need a ½” box wrench. If using screws to mount your station, you will need a Phillips-head screwdriver.
