ECOWITT WN30 Wireless Multi Channel Thermometer Probe Sensor

Product Information

The Wireless Multi-channel Thermometer Probe Sensor (Model: WN30) is a temperature sensor that measures temperature using a 3m (10ft) cabled sensor. It has a long wireless range of up to 300 feet (100 meters) in open areas and transmits readings every 61 seconds. The sensor is IP65 waterproof, ensuring its durability in various conditions.

The data from the sensor can be received by various Ecowitt consoles, including HP2551/HP2553, the WiFi Gateway, WN1900, HP3500/HP3501, WH2910, and can also be posted to https://www.ecowitt.net. When paired with the Wi-Fi Gateway, users can view the temperature readings on the Live Data page of the WS View Plus/Ecowitt App, provided that the gateway and the user’s phone are connected to the same Wi-Fi network.

The Wireless Multi-channel Thermometer Probe Sensor supports up to 8 channels, and users have the option to edit channel names on the app. The WS View Plus/Ecowitt App also displays battery level information when low battery power is detected.

When paired with a Weather Station Console (HP2551/HP3500/HP3501), users can view water temperature data in real-time on the display. The console allows for up to 8 channels and channel names can be edited on the console (only for HP2551/HP2553 console).

For WH2910 weather station console with console software version V2.1.8 or above, the sensor data cannot be displayed on the console itself but is pushed to https://www.ecowitt.net for remote data hosting.

Introduction

Thanks for purchasing this WN30 wireless thermometer probe sensor. This device has a 3M/10FT cabled waterproof probe sensor, and can be used to measure temperature in liquids( mainly water) or even bury it in soil or place the sensor into spaces like fridge etc. The sensor works at one of the 8 channels selected via dip switches. It can work by itself by showing current temperature on its own LCD, but also the data is transmitted under ISM bands and the signal can be received by our different consoles or gateways, which streams the sensor data to www.ecowitt.net.
To ensure the best product performance, please read this manual and retain it for future reference.

    Note: The WN30 and WH31(multi-channel temperature and humidity sensor) will be recognized as the same sensor type by the software. If you purchased both, they will share the eight channels together and the total quantity of the two sensors could not exceed eight.

Setup Guide

Install batteries

  1. Remove the battery door on the back of the transmitter(s) by sliding down the battery door, as shown in Figure 2 .

  2. Before inserting the batteries, find the dip switches above the battery compartment and set the temperature units and channel number:
    Temperature Units: To change the transmitter display units of temperature measure (°F vs. °C), change Dip Switch 4, as referenced in Figure 3.
    Channel Number: This device supports up to eight sensors. To set each channel number, change Dip Switches 1, 2 and 3, as referenced in Figure 3.
    Switch in down position.
    Switch in up position.

  3. Insert two AA batteries.

  4. Verify the correct channel number (CH) and temperature units of measure (°F vs. °C) are on the display.

  5. Close the battery door.
    Repeat for the additional remote transmitters(sold separately), verifying each remote is on a different channel.

Sensor Placement

To mount or hang the unit on a wall or wood beam:

  • Use a screw or nail to affix the remote sensor to the wall, as shown on the left side of figure 4, or
  • Hang the remote sensor using a string, as shown in right side of figure 4.

Note: Make sure the sensor is mounted vertically and not lying down on a flat surface. This will insure optimum reception. Wireless signals are impacted by distance, interference (other weather stations, wireless phones, wireless routers, TVs and computer monitors), and transmission barriers, such as walls. In general, wireless signals will not penetrate solid metal and earth (down a hill, for example).

Wi-Fi Configuration with gateway

To view the sensor data on your mobile application and receive email alerts on our weather server, you need to pair this devi-ce with our the Wi-Fi Gateway or HP2551 /HP3500/HP3501 Weather Station (sold se-parately).

Pair with Gateway
If the WiFi Gateway has been in operation, and you have never had any WN30 sensor setup before, just power up the sensor and the WiFi Gateway will pick the sensor data automatically.

If you want to use a new WN30 sensor to replace the old one (already configured on certain channel), please try the following:

  1. Open the Sensor ID page on the WS View Plus/ Ecowitt App, and find your old sensor ID.
  2. Power off the old sensor and power on the new sensor.
  3. Click Re-register on the Sensor ID page.

Then the new sensor will be learned and the old sensor will be erased.

Wi-Fi Connection for the Gateway
For this part, please refer to the manual of the Wi-Fi gateway.

Any question, please contact the customer service.

View Online Data with WS View Plus/ Ecowitt App

When the Wi-Fi configuration is done, you may view sensor data as well as the sensor battery voltage information on WS View Plus/Ecowitt App at the live data page.

Note: It requires your phone and the gateway using the same network as the APP is talking to the WiFi Gateway directly on the local Wi-Fi network.

To remote monitor the sensor data, please upload the data to our free Ecowitt Weather Server: https://www.ecowitt.net.
Detailed operation instructions can be found on the WiFi Gateway manual.
Any question, please feel free to contact our customer service at support@ecowitt.com
