RainPoint Wireless Weather Sensor Instruction Manual

Prodott Overview

This high-precision wireless weather sensor operates at a 433.92 MHz RF frequency, offering a transmission range of up to 100 meters in open-air environments for flexible placement. It accurately measures temperatures from -40°C to +60°C (-40°F to +140°F) and humidity levels between 1%RH and 99%, ensuring reliable climate monitoring. The sensor automatically pairs with compatible WiFi Smart Weather Stations (B0BMG2XVDN) but cannot operate independently. Featuring a compact, portable design with a hanging rope, it is suitable for various indoor and outdoor applications. With three RF channels, users can monitor multiple locations simultaneously. Powered by two AA batteries (sold separately), this sensor provides a wire-free, hassle-free installation for continuous and accurate weather tracking.

Gwida ta' Setup

1. Installazzjoni tal-batterija

The RainPoint Wireless Weather Sensor requires two AA batteries (not included). To install the batteries:

1. Iftaħ l-għatu tal-kompartiment tal-batterija fuq wara tas-sensor.
2. Daħħal żewġ batteriji AA, waqt li tiżgura l-polarità korretta (+ u -).
3. Agħlaq l-għatu tal-kompartiment tal-batterija sew.

After battery installation, the sensor's red light will flash, indicating it has entered matching mode.

2. App Installation and Account Creation (for compatible WiFi Smart Weather Station)

This sensor works exclusively with a compatible WiFi Smart Weather Station (e.g., B0BMG2XVDN) and its associated mobile application. The following video demonstrates the process of installing the "HomGar" app and creating an account, which is a prerequisite for using your weather station hub and connecting this sensor.

3. Pairing the Weather Station Hub with the App

The sensor communicates with a main WiFi Smart Weather Station Hub. The hub needs to be connected to your home WiFi network via the app. The video above also demonstrates this process. Ensure your hub is powered on and close to your 2.4 GHz Wi-Fi router.

1. Open the HomGar app and tap the "+" icon on the home page to add a device.
2. Select the "Display Hub" from the list of devices.
3. Enter your 2.4 GHz Wi-Fi network password. (Note: This hub only works with 2.4 GHz Wi-Fi. If you have a dual-band router, ensure 2.4 GHz is enabled and smart connect is disabled).
4. On the weather station hub, press and hold the `+ / Wi-Fi` button for 5 seconds until "SCAN" is displayed.
5. The app will automatically search for and pair with the hub. Confirm the device when found.

If the Smart WiFi connection fails, you can try the AP connection mode. In the app, tap "Switch Mode" to enter AP Mode. Then, on the hub, hold the `+ / Wi-Fi` button for 5 seconds until "SCAN AP" is displayed. Connect your phone to the device's Wi-Fi hotspot (usually named "HomGar_XXXX") and then return to the app to complete pairing.

4. Pairing the Wireless Weather Sensor with the Hub

Once your WiFi Smart Weather Station Hub is successfully connected to the app, you can add the wireless sensor.

1. In the HomGar app, navigate to the hub's device page.
2. Select "Sub-devices" and then choose "Thermo-Hygro Sensor" to add.
3. Ensure the sensor has fresh batteries installed (as per step 1). The sensor's red light should be flashing, indicating it's in matching mode.
4. The gateway (hub) will automatically search for and pair with the sensor.
5. Once paired, the sensor's data (temperature and humidity) will appear in the app.

Operazzjoni

The RainPoint Wireless Weather Sensor continuously measures temperature and humidity. Data is transmitted wirelessly to your paired WiFi Smart Weather Station Hub, which then sends it to the HomGar mobile application.

• Monitoraġġ f'ħin reali: View current temperature and humidity readings directly on your weather station hub's display and within the HomGar app.
• Storja tad-Data: The app provides charts and historical data, allowing you to track climate changes over time.
• Multi-location Monitoring: With three RF channels, you can connect multiple sensors to your hub to monitor different indoor or outdoor locations simultaneously.
• Trażmissjoni fuq Distanza Twila: The sensor offers a transmission range of up to 100 meters in open-air environments, providing flexibility in placement.

Manutenzjoni

• Sostituzzjoni tal-batterija: Replace the two AA batteries when the low battery indicator appears on the hub or app to ensure continuous operation.
• Pjazzament: While designed to withstand extreme weather, it is recommended to place the sensor under a cover and away from direct sunlight. This protects the sensor from potential heat sources and precipitation, contributing to more accurate readings and extended device life.
• Tindif: Imsaħ is-sensor b'ċarruta ratba u damp cloth as needed. Do not use abrasive cleaners or immerse the device in water.
