• Reconfigure the network settings for the Air Box.

No response when the Air Box is powered on

• Check if the power supply of the Air Box is properly connected, ensure that the power adapter used is the original/equivalent voltage adapter.

Data transmission issues

• Verify if the Air Box is connected to Wi-Fi properly, a normal Wi-Fi connection is indicated by a blue light on the front when the power is on.

Precautions

1. Do not connect the transmitter to a place where the voltage is above 24VDC.
2. Please refer to the product appearance and size drawings in the user manual to install the equipment.
3. Install the transmitter at the location that needs to be detected, keep it away from heating elements or steam sources, and prevent direct sunlight.
4. When wiring the circuit, connect the wires to the terminals to ensure that the wiring is correct and firm.
5. Try to stay away from high-power interference equipment, so as not to cause inaccurate measurement, such as transmitters, motors, etc.
6. Avoid installing in areas that are easy to transfer heat and will directly cause a temperature difference with the area to be measured, otherwise, the temperature and humidity measurement will be inaccurate.
