- If it is not the first use, the base station will switch to the normal mode, detecting the current temperature, and humidity. However, because Wi-Fi mode is not set up, the network weather forecast information cannot be obtained, and the air pressure, weather forecast and temperature forecast will not be displayed. In this case, when the “WiFi” button is held for more than 3 seconds, the base station will automatically enter the AP (AutoPairing) mode.
- Go back to the APP and confirm your current location.
- Select W003 as connection method.

At this time, hold “Wi-Fi” button on the base station for more than 3 seconds, letting the base station exit AP (AutoPairing) mode. You will be transferred to the system’s Wi-Fi settings again.
- When the APP interface is displayed, APP will automatically set the location of the base station and show the main matches. At the same time, the base station is automatically connected to the Wi-Fi hot spot after the AP (AutoPairing) mode is exited. When the connection is successful, the base station will automatically obtain the time, air pressure, weather forecast and temperature prediction of the network, and display it on the screen.
- After the successful, connection the base station will
automatically obtain and display the time, air pressure, weather forecast and temperature forecast of the network
- The base station will now start the connection to the outdoor remote sensor. This operation lasts approximately 3 minutes and is followed by a flashing reception RF antenna symbol “W” the “OUTD OOR” display area on the receiver. The “OUTD OOR” display area will show the RF antenna symbol flashing, indicating the base station is searching for the signal from the outdoor sensor. At the same time the base station begins to establish Wi-Fi connections (for details check the previous Wi -Fi connection description).
Note: The battery is a backup power supply of the Base Station, in case the power adapter is unexpectedly cut off. However, after the power adapter is disconnected, the Wi-Fi connection of the base station will be automatically disconnected and the station will switch to normal mode.
Outdoor sensor transmission:
- When the base station successfully receives signals from the wireless sensor, the outdoor temperature and humidity are displayed on the “OUTD OOR” column of the Base Station.
