**Product Information

**

The product in question is the GW1100, manufactured by ShenZhenShi OuSaiTeDianZi YouXianGongSi. It is a weather station device that provides various weather-related data. The device is part of a series that includes GW1101, GW1102, GW1103, and GW1104. Each model in the series has different features and capabilities.

Model Difference Overview:

  • GW1101: Sensor Matched Multi CH T&H (WN31)
  • GW1102: Outdoor T&H (WN32)
  • GW1103: Rain Gauge (WH40)
  • GW1104: Wind & Solar (WS68)

It is important to note that the GW1101 and GW1102 models, WN31(EN31) and WN32, have similar appearances but serve different functions. WN32 is a dedicated outdoor temperature and humidity sensor with the highest priority for providing temperature and humidity data. WN31(EN31) is a dip switch selectable multi-channel temperature and humidity sensor that supports up to 8 channels. The sensor operates on 2 AA Alkaline batteries.

Warning :

  • any metal object may attract a lightning strike, including your weather station mounting pole. Never install the weather station in a storm.

  • If you are mounting the weather station to a house or structure, consult a licensed electrician for proper grounding. A direct lightning strike to a metal pole can damage or destroy your home and the product.

  • Installing your weather station in a high location may result in injury or death. Perform as
    much of the initial checkout and operation on the ground and inside a building or home. Only install the weather station on a clear, dry, day.

  • Please set up the system and put the sensors in a conveniently accessible temporary location for a few days, familiarize yourself with the system, and make sure the system operates normally before installing them into a permanent position. When you mount the sensor, remember to take your phone and have the webpage showing the data displayed, before fixing the mounting pole, be sure you can see the signal can be picked up by the GW1100 gateway reliably. So check out on-site system data while you are mounting the sensors.

WN31(EN31) &WN32
WN31(EN31) and WN32 look quite similar but with different function definitions applied. WN32 is a dedicated outdoor temperature and humidity sensor, it has the highest priority against WS69 or WS80 integrated sensor temperature and humidity data.WN31(EN31) is a dip switch selectable multi-channel temperature and humidity sensor. It supports a maximum 8 channels. The sensor operates on 2pcs AA Alkaline batteries.

Switch in the down position. Switch in up position.

WH40
WH40 is a rain gauge. Be sure to lock the funnel firmly and in position( tell by having the arrow mark matched). The battery door should be tightly locked without gaps. 1pcAA battery ( Lithium non-rechargeable recommended). LED flashes every 49s in normal operation. Press the “RESET” button if the LED doesn’t light up or stays on all the time.

When the new sensor is powered, usually the GW1100 gateway will automatically pick up the data and the value is displayed at the live data page. In case the GW1100 gateway has previously memorized sensor ID learned before during factory QC control testing, it is needed to go to the live data page, and make a “register” action to force the gateway to search for new sensors around.

*: Please look at the special marking in the below description for sensor QTY supported. WH43,45N,45
The three model looks quite similar to the housing, and it is designed for indoor air quality measurement. The power supply is from the USB ports at the side of the sensor housing, and the two AA alkaline batteries are mainly for back up purposes.The sensor wakes up and takes a measurement once every minute. When at very quiet nighttime, the tiny sound of fan being turned on periodically is noticeable. Please note that WH45 and WH45N can’t be received at the same time on the same GW1100 gateway: it is allowed to have only one of them to be paired.WH43 allows a maximum of 4 devices to be connected at the same time.

WH51
WH51 measures soil moisture level, and it is very useful in telling the relative moisture level change status. Once we know the level when just watered, and then wait until the reading drops to a certain level and it can remind us to water the plant again,sowewon’t miss the time that the plant start to be “thirsty”.
