1. Installation
1.
Mount the CO
sensor on the wall near the CO
2
source, with a minimum distance of 50 cm. It is
preferred not to place the sensor directly above the
CO
source if it becomes very hot (CO
2
You should mount the sensor at a height of +/- 1
meter above the floor.
2.
Do not place the sensor in the direct airflow of fans
as this may affect the measurements.
3.
Connect the sensor(s) to the bottom of the T-Micro
with the supplied (UTP) cable(s).
4.
Plug the CO
source to the T-Micro.

5.
Plug the plug of the T-Micro into a 230V socket.
6.
Ready!
2. Connecting controllers and sensors
Most of TechGrow's controllers and sensors can be
interconnected to ensure an optimal user experience.
Interconnecting the controllers enables to control the
total climate with only one S-4 Sensor. Since each
device has 2 UTP connectors, it is not only possible to
interconnect the devices, but also to connect a
Datalogger DL-1, for example.
Make sure that all controllers are equipped with mains
voltage, and check if the controllers are switched off
before you connect sensor(s) to prevent any
malfunctions. The sensor can be connected to any UTP
connector.
The regular TechGrow sensors are comparable to the
sensors from the TechGrow Pro Series and can
therefore also be used for controllers from the Pro
Series.
3. Connecting additional sensors or
other devices
The T-Micro can measure the values of connected CO
RH and temperature sensors, and transmit the data to
the connected controller, provided it is linked to an S-4
Sensor. However, the T-Micro only regulates
the CO
.
2
If you want to connect another sensor to the T-Micro,
first switch off the controller, wait a few seconds, and
then reconnect the controller to the power outlet.
4. Which sensors can be connected to
the T-Micro?
The minimum sensor required is a S-2 Sensor

6. Meaning LED
Between the two rotary knobs you see the "OK" LED,
which can indicate a number of things:
Green: there is sufficient CO
•
Red: the CO
•
Orange (flashing): something is wrong. The sensor

is missing or broken (NO*SENSOR), or calibration is
in progress.
7. Operation of the T-Micro
If the CO

Over time, the CO
