The data node (1) will appear in the Device Table at the
bottom of the HOBOnode Manager window, with
additional rows for each internal sensor (2) and external
sensor or sensor port (3).
The Status column for data nodes and internal sensors
(4) will indicate ACTIVE.
The Status column for configurable external sensors (5)
will indicate OFF, and the Type column will be grayed
out, until you select a Sensor Type in Task 6. This does
not apply to the external Temp/RH sensor, which is
automatically recognized by HOBOnode Manager.

IMPORTANT: Refer to the documentation that came with your
sensor for connection information.
External Sensor Ports
External Temp/RH sensor
The ZW-005 and the ZW-007 support the External Temp/RH
sensor (Part #: CABLE-TEMP/RH), which plugs into the External
Temp/RH Sensor Port (#1 in the photo above). This sensor is
preconfigured and you do not have to select a sensor type.
Separate rows appear under the data node for the Temperature
and RH channels with corresponding entries in the Type
column.
Configurable External Sensors
Some data nodes support up to four configurable external
sensors, which plug into one of the 2.5mm Stereo Ports (#2 in
the photo above). You must select a Sensor Type in HOBOnode
Manager for these sensors.
