DEVELCO HMSZB-110 Humidity Sensor

Product description

The Humidity Sensor allows you to protect your building and belongings by monitoring the temperature and humidity levels, and receive immediate alerts if the climate fluctuates to unsafe levels.
By supervising the indoor climate, the wireless Humidity Sensor helps maintain the ideal comfort level and protect interior, electronics, musical instruments, furniture, artwork, and other humidity-sensitive household items.

Disclaimers

CAUTION:

Choking hazard! Keep away from children. Contains small parts.
Please follow the guidelines thoroughly. The Humidity Sensor is a preventive, informing device, not a guarantee or insurance that sufficient warning or protection will be provided, or that no property damage, theft, injury, or any similar situation will take place. Develco Products cannot be
held responsible in case any of the abovementioned situations occur.

Precautions

Do not remove the product label as it contains important information.
Be aware that electronics are sensitive to static electricity, so aim to discharge before touching, and avoid touching any components inside the device.
Do not place the Humidity Sensor on the ceiling, or behind obstacles, such as curtains.
Do not place the Humidity Sensor under direct sunlight or bright light.
Avoid placing the Humidity Sensor close to radiators or electromagnetic fields.
Do not paint the sensor.

Getting started

Open the sensor by pushing the switch and pulling the top of the casing.
Insert two AA batteries respecting the polarities.
The Humidity Sensor will now start searching (up to 15 minutes) for a ZigBee network to join.
Make sure that the ZigBee network is open for joining devices and will accept the Humidity Sensor.
While the Humidity Sensor is searching for a ZigBee network to join, the LED flashes red.
When the LED stops flashing, the Humidity Sensor has successfully joined the ZigBee network.

Placement

Place the sensor indoors at a temperature between 0-50°C.
Inside the room, in which you want to monitor humidity levels.
The Humidity Sensor should be placed on a wall, reachable for battery testing and maintenance.

Placement

Mounting

Open the casing of the Humidity Sensor and remove the batteries.
Use double-sided tape or screws to attach the sensor on the wall.
Insert batteries respecting the polarities.
Make sure that the Humidity Sensor has joined a network before closing the casing.

Resetting

Resetting is needed if you want to connect your humidity sensor to another gateway or if you need to perform a factory reset to eliminate abnormal behaviour.

STEPS FOR RESETTING

Open the casing of the Humidity Sensor.
Press and hold the round menu button inside the device.
While you are holding the button down, the LED first flashes once, then two times in a row, and finally numerous times in a row.
Release the button while the LED is flashing numerous times in a row.
After you release the button, the LED shows one long flash, and the reset is completed.

Fault finding

• If the search for a gateway has timed out, a short press on the button will restart it.
In case of a bad or wireless weak signal, change the location of the Humidity Sensor. Otherwise, you can relocate your gateway or strengthen the signal with a smart plug.

Battery replacement

The device will blink twice every minute when the battery is low.

CAUTION:

Do not attempt to recharge or open the batteries.
Risk of explosion if batteries are replaced by an incorrect type.
Dispose of a battery into fire or a hot oven, or mechanically crushing or cutting of a battery can result in an explosion
Leaving a battery in an extremely high temperature surrounding environment can result in an explosion or the leakage of flammable liquid or gas.
A battery subjected to extremely low air pressure may result in an explosion or the leakage of flammable liquid or gas
Maximum operation temperature is 50°C / 122°F
If you experience leakage from the batteries, immediately wash your hands and/or any affected area of your body thoroughly!

CAUTION: When removing cover for battery change – Electrostatic Discharge (ESD) can harm electronic components inside.

Open the casing of the Humidity Sensor to replace the batteries.
Replace the batteries respecting the polarities.
Close the casing of the sensor.

Disposal

Dispose the product and batteries properly at the end of life. This is electronic waste which should be recycled.
