First Connection
Step One:
On your smartphone, go to the Apple App Store
or Google Play
and download the AAB Smart TS-100 app marked with an Orange icon
.
Step Two:
Connecting the TS-100 to the app.
Start by pressing the side buttons to open and turn on the TS-100. The LED will begin
blinking once a second for 30 seconds. This indicates that the unit is operating and the
battery is good. At the end of the first 30 seconds, the meter will go into standby mode
and will remain in standby mode as long as the meter is open. The meter can be
connected to at any time while in the standby mode without physical interaction.
Closing the meter turns it completely off.
Step Three:
Connecting the TS-100 to the app.
Start the app by selecting TS-100 orange icon
in the app list. After the opening
screen animation, choose “Open Meter and Tap Here To Connect”.

Main App Screen
Current Reading:
Displays the Dry Bulb Temperature and Relative Humidity in real-
time. It also calculates Feels Like, Dew Point and Wet Bulb Temperatures. Definitions
for each of these readings are included in the glossary at the end of this document.
Data Logging
Keeps a log of the temperature and humidity in intervals set by the user. To start data
logging, connect the device to the app (see First Connection on page 4).
Once connected, choose “Data Log” at the bottom of the screen. This will bring up the
Data Log screen.
To start logging, select “Data Log More…”, then “Start New Log” from the pop up menu.

A new box will appear with three selectable time increments: hours (hh), minutes (mm),
and seconds (ss). Set the desired increment (how often to record each reading) and
select start.
The TS-100 will begin logging. The log is stored in the TS-100 memory and can be
accessed at any time.
Reading Data Log
Once it has logged the needed amount of time, select “Data Log More…” and choose
“Read Device Log”. This will download the log to your phone.

Exporting Data
The TS-100 is able to export both saved data and the current data to a file or email. In
order to export, first go to the drop down menu and choose Export.
This will bring you to the Export screen. At the top are the two options of Historical
Reading (data imported through the log feature) or the Current Reading. For Historical
Reading, the user can select certain date periods, rename the file, choose between html
or csv file types, and add comments.
Once completed, export or email can be chosen to save or send the data.

Comfort Zone
Graphical representation of the relationship between temperature and humidity as it
relates to indoor comfort. This helps people to understand the impact humidity can have
on comfort vs seeing a specific temperature on a thermostat.
Please be sure to adjust the comfort zone for the season by clicking on Indoor Cooling
Season or Indoor Heating Season at the top of the chart.

LED Indicators
The two LED indicators flash in order to inform the user about the unit’s operation. In
normal operation, the LED will flash once every second for 30 seconds to let the user
know the unit has been powered on. At the end of the first 30 seconds, the meter will
go into standby mode and will remain in standby mode as long as the meter is open.
The meter can be connected to at any time while in the standby mode without physical
interaction. Closing the meter turns it completely off.
If the battery voltage falls below 2.8 volts, the TS-100 will automatically shut down the
Bluetooth connection and will quickly flash three times every two seconds. Please see
below for instructions on changing the battery.
Maintenance
Changing the battery
Step one: Using the indentation on the top of the unit, lift to pop the battery door open.
Step two: Pull the battery door off and flip the TS-100 over to remove the battery.
Place in a new battery with the positive side facing up, as in the picture below.
Step three: Place the battery door back onto the TS-100, making sure all three clips
are firmly seated.
Cleaning
To clean the TS-100, use a dry dust free rag and wipe down exterior.
*
Do not rinse or submerge! *
Storage
The ABM-200 is to be stored out of direct sunlight in temperatures between 32° and
95° F (0° and 35° C).

The TempSmart TS-100 was designed to mechanically shield the sensor while
closed and provide fast and accurate readings by exposing the sensors directly
to the air when opened. When moving the device from extreme temperature or
humidity conditions to another, it may require time to acclimate as with any
measurement device.
General Use
The TS-100 was designed for reading and logging temperature and humidity in order
to aid the contractor in effectively balancing commercial and residential HVAC
systems.

Glossary
Comfort Zone:
The comfort zone displayed on the app is intended to be a graphic
representation that is relative to the ASHRAE Standard 55 “Thermal Environmental
Conditions for Human Occupancy”. This standard provides minimum requirements for
acceptable thermal indoor environments and helps people to understand the
relationship between temperature and humidity as they relate to comfort.
Dew Point:
The atmospheric temperature below which water droplets begin to
condense and dew can form.
Feels Like:
The effect of humidity on perceived indoor temperature
Humidity:
A quantity representing the amount of water vapor present in the air.
Relative Humidity:
The amount of water vapor present in air expressed as a
percentage of the amount needed for saturation at the same temperature.
Dry Bulb Temperature:
Temperature of air measured by a thermometer freely
exposed to the air but shielded from radiation and moisture. DBT is the temperature
that is usually thought of as air temperature, and it is the true
thermodynamic temperature.
Wet Bulb Temperature:
The wet bulb temperature is the temperature air would have
if it were cooled to saturation (100% relative humidity). Knowing the wet bulb
temperature is important in determining the temperature of an area that can be
achieved through evaporative cooling and/or removing the latent energy from a space.
Temperature Differential
or ΔT
:
difference in temperature between two spaces in a
building, or between indoor and outdoor temperature.
