The LCD screen provides a visual display of its current sampled reading(s), the lowest and highest sampled readings for its current Collection Period, and current operating state.
In addition to the sampled readings, the LCD screen provides visual indicators of its current operating state.
Segment |
Description |
|---|---|
Signal OK |
Indicates its last connection to the facility's network and check-in to OneVue was successful. |
No Signal |
Indicates the device could not establish a connection to the facility's network and check-in to OneVue. For wireless network use, this may be due to the device is not within range of a wireless access point or the wireless signal strength is not adequate for normal operation. If the device is powered by AC or Power over Ethernet (PoE), the yellow LED indicator also flashes during this state. |

Err (Temperature or Water Leak Sensor) |
For a temperature sensor: indicates either of the following: (1) a probe is either removed from or not inserted correctly into the sensor's probe input jack, or can be caused due to the probe is not operating as expected, or (2) the collection period must be reset, which may result from inserting a new probe or reinserting a probe. To clear the error state and reset the Lo/Hi collection period, verify the probe is inserted into the sensor jack and press and release the sensor Silence (bell) button For a water leak sensor: indicates the water detector is either removed from or not inserted correctly into the sensor's input jack or can be caused due to the detector is not operating as expected. During this error:

Low Battery icon |
Indicates an Alarm state due to its estimated battery life is less than 25%. To avoid loss of battery power, be sure to replace its batteries. Requires 2 AA Lithium AA batteries. The use of alkaline batteries is not recommended. |
Lbat |
Indicates an Alarm state due to its battery level is critically low. Replace its batteries immediately. Requires 2 AA Lithium AA batteries. The use of alkaline batteries is not recommended. Readings are not displayed, sampled, logged, or transmitted to OneVue during this state. |
Up |
Indicates a firmware update is currently being applied to the device. Do not remove power during this state. When the firmware update is complete, UP is no longer displayed. Readings are not displayed, sampled, logged, or transmitted to OneVue during this state. |
Con |
The device is in configuration mode. The config icon is also displayed. Data is not logged or transmitted to OneVue during this state. |
|
H \ / F (HwF) |
Indicates an internal hardware failure. This is due to the main processor cannot communicate with the internal sensing element. Contact Primex Technical Support for assistance. Readings are not displayed, sampled, logged, or transmitted to OneVue during this state. |
FTST |
Indicates the sensor is in a Factory Test Mode state. A sensor enters Factory Test Mode when its Silence button This mode does not impact the use of the sensor or the logged readings stored in its local memory. The purpose of this mode is for use by Primex during factory testing. When a sensor has entered this mode, it performs a factory test and power-cycles (turns off and on), which can take up to approximately 1 minute. Once the factory test is complete, the sensor returns to its normal operating mode. Readings are not displayed, sampled, logged, or transmitted to OneVue during this state. |
Sampled readings are not transmitted to OneVue and are only displayed on the LCD screen.
Only a sensor's logged readings are transmitted to OneVue. How frequent logged readings are taken is set in the sensor's Logging Interval setting.
CDC guidelines list “Checking and recording minimum/maximum temperatures at start of each workday” as a recommendation for coordinators. These values are the lowest (minimum) and highest (maximum) temperatures that have occurred over a period of time.
Primex refers to this period of time as the Collection Period and is reset by a staff member from the sensor device.
For example, if you reset a sensor's collection period at 8:02 AM on a Tuesday and you look at the sensor's local display at 7:45 AM on Wednesday, the lowest sampled reading (Lo) and highest sampled reading (Hi) displayed is for the time period from 8:02 AM Tuesday to 7:45 AM on Wednesday. If you reset the collection period at 7:46 AM on Wednesday, that resets the collection period to start on Wednesday at 7:46 AM.

If the sensor is NOT in a reading alarm: press and hold down the Silence button
(bell icon) for 1 second. A single beep is emitted when the reset is complete.-
If the sensor IS in a reading alarm (audio alert and/or red LED is flashing): press and quickly release the Silence button
(bell icon) to clear the alarm, and then for 1 second press and hold down the Silence button. A single beep is emitted when the reset is complete.This clears the audio alarm and resets the collection period.
