# Temperature Sensor (TS)

{% hint style="danger" %}
The user must read the [product documentation](https://github.com/TWTG-R-D-B-V/neon-product-documentation/tree/main/TS/Installation%20%26%20Use) before proceeding with the information provided in this section. 
{% endhint %}

The NEON Temperature Sensor measures the temperature through a probe located at the bottom of the device. This probe must be in contact with the surface that needs to be monitored. Thermal paste can be added to increase surface contact with the probe and, therefore, accuracy.

Mounting the sensor can be done in 3 ways:

1. On magnetic surfaces, just place the sensor onto the surface using the internal magnets.

2. For a non-magnetic surface peel away the backing of the double-sided adhesive and firmly press the sensor onto the surface. Make sure the surface is clean, dust and grease-free before mounting.

3. For non-magnetic surfaces or rounded objects, a band clamp may be used to strap the sensor to the surface.

# Agent Instructions
This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the following URL with the `ask` and `goal` query parameters:

```
GET https://docs.twtg.io/docs/installation-and-provisioning/installation/temperature-sensor-ts.md?ask=<question>&goal=<user_goal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is what the user is ultimately trying to achieve, the reason they need the answer. Sharing it helps GitBook give you a better, more relevant answer. A goal is most helpful when it describes the outcome the user wants rather than restating the question. For example, with `ask=how do I create an API token`, a goal like `automate deployments from our CI pipeline` lets GitBook tailor the answer to that use case.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
