1. Product Overview
The Emos ESW5002 is a wireless temperature and humidity sensor designed to extend the capabilities of your compatible Emos weather station. It allows you to monitor environmental conditions in multiple locations, both indoors and outdoors, providing data for accurate weather forecasting and home climate management.
Key Features:
- Comprehensive Monitoring: Track temperature and humidity in various indoor and outdoor areas.
- Extended Wireless Range: Maintains a stable connection up to 100 meters from the main weather station.
- Multi-Sensor Support: Connect up to 3 sensors to a single weather station for broader coverage.
- Indoor/Outdoor Versatility: Suitable for both internal and external environments.

2. Setup Instructions
Follow these steps to set up your Emos ESW5002 wireless sensor.
2.1. Battery Installation
- Locate the battery compartment on the back of the sensor.
- Open the battery compartment cover.
- Insert two (2) AAA/Micro batteries (not included), ensuring correct polarity (+/-).
- Close the battery compartment cover securely.

2.2. Pairing with Weather Station
The sensor automatically attempts to pair with your Emos weather station upon battery installation. Ensure your weather station is powered on and within range.
- Place the sensor near your Emos weather station.
- Once batteries are inserted, the sensor will begin transmitting data.
- Refer to your weather station's manual for specific instructions on adding or searching for new sensors. The weather station's self-learning function will collect data over approximately 2 weeks to optimize forecasts.
2.3. Sensor Placement
Optimal placement is crucial for accurate readings and stable connection.
- Range: The sensor can be placed up to 100 meters (328 feet) from the weather station. However, local conditions such as walls, electronic interference, and other obstacles can affect this range.
- Outdoor Placement: For outdoor use, choose a location that is sheltered from direct sunlight and heavy precipitation to ensure accuracy and prolong sensor life. The sensor is water-resistant (IPX4 rated).
- Indoor Placement: For indoor use, place the sensor in the desired room away from direct heat sources (e.g., radiators, direct sunlight) or strong drafts (e.g., open windows, air conditioning vents) for accurate temperature and humidity readings.

3. Operating Instructions
Once paired, the sensor continuously transmits temperature and humidity data to your Emos weather station.
- Data Display: The temperature and humidity readings from the sensor will be displayed on your main Emos weather station.
- Switching Between Sensors: If you have multiple sensors connected, your weather station's display typically allows you to cycle through the readings from each sensor. Refer to your weather station's manual for specific button functions to switch between sensor channels.
- Self-Learning Function: The weather station utilizes a self-learning function that gathers data from the sensor over approximately two weeks to provide more accurate weather forecasts.

4. Maintenance
Proper maintenance ensures the longevity and accuracy of your sensor.
- Battery Replacement: Replace batteries when the low battery indicator appears on your weather station's display for the corresponding sensor, or if the sensor stops transmitting data. Always use fresh AAA/Micro batteries.
- Cleaning: Wipe the sensor's exterior with a soft, damp cloth. Do not use abrasive cleaners or immerse the sensor in water.
- Environmental Protection: While the sensor is water-resistant (IPX4), avoid exposing it to extreme weather conditions such as heavy downpours, direct prolonged sunlight, or freezing temperatures for extended periods to maximize its lifespan.
