aranet Transmitters with Power Supply

About the transmitters

Aranet offers four different transmitters that can be connected with third- party sensors and thus integrated into the Aranet ecosystem. Transmitters themselves are battery-powered, but can also be connected to mains electricity to power the third-party sensor.

Pairing the transmitter with the base station

Things to know before starting the pairing procedure:

  • It is possible to pair the transmitter to the base station with or without the sensor connected.
  • To pair the transmitter, the transmitter must be near the base station (max 20 m).
  • When installing and placing the sensor note that the cable must be routed in a manner to obtain a “water/drip loop” for water to drop off. Do not stress the cable.
  • If you experience any difficulties, get in touch with support@aranet.com.

Option 1: How to pair the transmitter to the base station with batteries (recommended)
Pairing the sensor with the battery ensures an interrupted signal to the base station during the whole installation process, as well as in case of an electricity outage or sensing element failure.

  2. Unscrew and take off the transmitter’s lid.
  3. Open the Sensorhub application (ensure that you have the latest firmware upgrade).
  4. Open the section “SENSORS” and there choose the preferable measurement interval.
  5. Click the “PAIR SENSOR” button on the computer screen and then immediately insert the batteries or insert batteries and click the “PAIRING” button on the transmitter (left corner).
  6. The sensor will be paired and appear in the category “SENSORS”.
  7. You can finish your sensor setup and screw the lid back.

Option 2: How to pair the transmitter to the base station with mains power, without batteries

  1. Connect the power cable to the transmitter.
  2. Unscrew and take off the transmitter’s lid.
  3. Connect it to the power mains.
  4. Open the Sensorhub application (ensure that you have the latest firmware upgrade).
  5. Open the section “SENSORS” and there choose the preferable measurement interval.
  6. Click the “PAIR SENSOR” button on the computer screen and then click the “PAIRING” button on the transmitter (left corner).
  7. The sensor will be paired and appear in the category “SENSORS”.
  8. You can finish your sensor setup and screw the lid back.
