  • 1 x User Manual (this document)

Batteries (2 x AA) are required but not included in the package.

Setup

  1. Install Batteries: Open the battery compartment on the back of the sensor. Insert 2 new AA batteries, ensuring correct polarity (+/-). Close the battery compartment securely.
  2. Power On: The sensor will automatically power on and begin transmitting data once batteries are installed. The display will show current temperature and humidity readings.
  3. Pair with Weather Station:
    • Place the outdoor sensor within range of your compatible Newentor Q7-DE, Q8-U, or Q8-DE weather station.
    • Refer to your main weather station's manual for specific instructions on how to initiate sensor pairing or search for new outdoor sensors.
    • Once paired, the weather station will display the temperature and humidity readings from the R3-WH-DE sensor.
  4. Mounting: Use the included mounting bracket to securely attach the sensor to an outdoor surface. Choose a location that is sheltered from direct sunlight and heavy precipitation for accurate readings, and within the wireless range of your main weather station.

Operation

The Newentor R3-WH-DE sensor operates continuously once powered, transmitting temperature and humidity data wirelessly to your compatible Newentor weather station. There are no user-adjustable settings directly on the sensor unit itself.

  • Temperature Display: The sensor's display shows the current outdoor temperature in Celsius (°C).
  • Humidity Display: The sensor's display shows the current outdoor relative humidity in percentage (%).
  • Battery Indicator: A low battery icon will appear on the sensor's display when the batteries need to be replaced.

Maintenance

  • Battery Replacement: Replace batteries promptly when the low battery indicator appears. Use 2 new AA batteries.
  • Cleaning: Wipe the sensor's exterior with a soft, damp cloth. Do not use abrasive cleaners or solvents. Ensure no moisture enters the internal components.
  • Placement: Periodically check the sensor's mounting to ensure it remains secure and in an optimal location for accurate readings (e.g., away from direct heat sources or excessive moisture).
  • Weather Resistance: While the sensor is weather-resistant, prolonged exposure to extreme conditions (e.g., heavy downpours, direct hail, extreme temperatures outside operating range) may affect its performance or lifespan. Consider additional shelter if necessary.
