Power up the Hub

Please plug the Hub into an outlet to power up the Hub, and it is recommended that the Hub be installed in a high, unobstructed location if possible to ensure stable signal transmission between the Hub and the Sensor.

The Socket on the Hub can be used to power other devices, please be careful not to overload, the maximum output current supported by the socket is 10A.

Power Button Operation of the Hub

Short press 1s and then release.

• Control the switch of the socket, press to turn ON/OFF the power.
• When the Hub beeps because the Sensor triggers an alarm, a short press of the power button will temporarily turn off the Hub beep. Please note that in this case the function of controlling the socket switch will no longer be available.

Press and hold for 5s until the Hub indicator turns blue breathing light and release.

• At this point the Hub enters Setup Mode, which is required when adding the Hub via the App.
• If the Hub is already connected to the network and working properly, performing this operation again will put the Hub into Setup mode and the Hub will be disconnected from the network.

Press and hold for 15s until the Hub indicator turns red blinking light and release.

• This operation will reset the Hub to restore the factory settings, the previous configuration will be cleared and the network will need to be configured from scratch.

Add the Sensor

Select the Sensor you want to add and click on the “Add Button” (Up to 10 devices can be added at a time). When the appears on the Sensor card, it means the Sensor is successfully added. Please wait until all Sensors status to become complete.

Installation

1. Please place the Hub at a relatively high position. The suggested distance between the Hub and Sensor is within 131ft (No obstacles, signal value stronger than 20% is ideal).
2. Please make sure the Sensor probe was inserted firmly (Note: ST5 probe is waterproof but the Sensor Data Logger is not).
3. Paste the Data Logger on the outside of refrigerator and place the probe inside.
   

Test the Effective Distance

• Place the paired ST5 Sensor in the location you want to monitor. The suggested distance between the Hub and Sensor is within 67ft-82ft (Household environment).
• Poke the Sensor pinhole for 1s and release.
• After 20~30 seconds, Tap the corresponding Sensor card on the App to reach the Sensor Settings Page and view the signal value, signal value stronger than 20% is ideal.

How the System Works

The ST5 Sensors use Bluetooth to communicate with the Hub. Therefore, the distance are limited to a Bluetooth range centered on the Hub (e.g., around the house).

This range is affected by distance and obstacles such as walls, windows, water, radio interference, etc. In short, longer distances and more obstacles mean weaker signals.

The H2 Hub uses a Wi-Fi (2.4GHz only) to transmit data from the MOCREO Sensors in range to the Internet. A cellular hotspot with Wi-Fi capability can also be used to provide Internet access. Then, the MOCREO App can be used to view your device data from anywhere in the world.

Battery

• The ST5 Sensor built- in 1800mAh rechargeable lithium battery.
• The battery can last up to 2 years before it needs to be charged again.
• Please charge the Sensor with a Micro USB Cable and a 5V 1A power adapter.
• The battery percentage can be checked on the App: Sensor Settings Page>Battery Level (Please do not check the battery level while the device is charging).
• When charging, the red indicator light will stay on and when the red indicator light goes off it means charging is complete.
• Low battery alert will be triggered when the battery is below 10% (Including Email alerts and APP notification).

Calibration

• When the Sensor was taken to or from the refrigerator / freezer, the ST5 Sensor will spend some time calibrating the reading, and it would take about 20 minutes for the ST5 to measure to proper ambient temperature.
• The ST5 has a built-in USA-made DS18B20 chip, which is a strictly calibrated industrial-grade chip and is more accurate than ordinary consumer chips.
• Calibration is usually not required, if you need information about the chip, please check the FAQ.
• Calibration is only used to correct for small variations of ±0.9°F (±0.5°C). If you find larger differences than this during calibration, which indicates a problem with the calibration process of your Sensor, please contact MOCREO Customer Service.
