Introduction

YoLink X3 Temperature Humidity Sensor is a thermometer and hygrometer. With monitoring the real-time temperature and humidity levels in your home, it can provide you with an early warning if temperature or humidity is out of the comfortable range, the sensor will blink red once, and notifications will be sent to you.
If the sensor is connected to the hub, once it is offline(do not repower the device), it can record and save the offline data in the device itself, according to the recording interval (refer to page11) you set up in the app. If the recording interval is 1 minute, the device can record and save 30 days offline data. When the sensor is back online (connect to the hub, and the hub connects to the Internet), it will report the offline data to the server.
Please also note, your smart X3 Temperature Humidity Sensor connects to the internet via one of our hubs
(original YoLink Hub or the SpeakerHub), and it does not connect directly to your WiFi or local network. In order for remote access to the device from the app, and for full-functionality, a hub is required. Otherwise, your X3 Temperature Humidity Sensor will have limited functionality with no remote access. Please contact us for additional information on this topic.

Third-party Assistants & Integrations

The YoLink X3 Temperature Humidity Sensor works with several voice assistants, including Alexa and Google, and it works with other automation platforms such as IFTTT.
To set up voice assistant integrations, in the app, go to Settings, Third- party Services, and follow the instructions.
Please note, only IFTTT supports X3 Temperature Humidity Sensor as trigger action in the routine.
Alexa only supports query the temperature of the device, Google only supports query the temperature or humidity of the devices.
For example, edit the name of the device in Alexa or Google to “Sunroom”, then you can ask: “ Echo, what is the sunroom temperature?”
If you want to hear the voice announcement from Alexa when the sensor alerts, you can consider VoiceMonkey’s skill.

Go to Alexa, enable the Voice Monkey Skill in Alexa
Sign in to the Voice Monkey website: https://app.voicemonkey.io/login – login with an Amazon Alexa account
On Voice Monkey website, on Manage Monkeys Page, add a monkey, name it as “Sunroom Monkey”
Go to IFTTT app, and create an applet, if this – yolink – THS – complete trigger fields, then that – Alexa Voice Monkey – choose Trigger Monkey(Routine) – select “Sunroom Monkey”
Go to Alexa to set up a routine, when this happens – choose smart home – choose “Sunroom Monkey”, add action…
