Configuration session This symbol is shown when configuration session is under progress. Only one configuration session is possible at one moment. That means setup from other places is blocked when configuration session is started.
Keyboard At the device body are two buttons MODE and SET. These buttons can be used for following actions: Manual switching between Client and Access point mode Showing of device IP address Mute of the acoustic Showing RSSI value at LCD display ie-wfs-Wx7xx-03...
WiFi Modes Device supports two WiFi modes. AP mode which in intended for initial provisioning into WiFi network and Client mode. Client mode is used when device is connected to infrastructure access point. When Client SSID is blank device is automatically switched into AP mode. Newly purchased device has blank SSID.

This chapter contains list of available models of WiFi sensors. Difference between models are types of inputs and ranges of measured values. Each measured quantity has assigned input channel. End-user cannot change type or range of measured quantities. W0710 ____________________________________________ Single channel compact thermometer This model of device measures temperature from probe which is connected to bottom part of the device.
Page 19
W0711 ____________________________________________ Single channel thermometer for external Pt1000 probe This model is designed to measurement from one external probe Pt1000/C. Probe is not a part of shipment and can be ordered separately. Device is suitable for monitoring places where probe is placed only, and device body is located outside the measured environment.
Page 20
W3721 ____________________________________________ Thermometer-hygrometer for two external probes This model is designed to measurement of temperature and relative humidity from two Digi/E probes. Probes are not a part of shipment and can be ordered separately. It can be selected one of the computed humidity values (dew point, absolute humidity, specific humidity, mixing ratio, specific enthalpy, or humidex).
Page 21
W4710 ___________________________________________ Compact sensor with temperature, relative humidity, barometric pressure and CO concentration measurement This model is designed to measurement of temperature, relative humidity, barometric pressure, and CO concentration of air. Temperature and relative humidity are measured by probe which is part of shipment and may to be detached from device body.

Device setup Conventions Configuration session Device setup uses a feature called configuration session. Once a device setup is started settings can be changed according to needs. All changes of setup are kept inside temporary memory. Settings changes are applied after saving.
Globally disabled features Some device features can be globally enabled or disabled. Good example of such feature is LCD display. It can be globally disabled at General settings. Showing measured values at LCD display can be disabled for each channel separately.

Measurements settings Settings of global features related to measurement. Available setup options depend on device type. Devices with temperature measurement can select between °C and °F. Dew point unit is same as temperature unit. Devices with humidity measurement allow for one of computed values from the list: Dew point, Absolute humidity, Specific humidity, Mixing ratio, Specific enthalpy, or Humidex.
In case of channel name is left blank, default channel name according to selected language is used. Be aware that after changing channel name, a new channel is created inside COMET Cloud or COMET Database. Each channel can have two independent alarms thresholds which can be configured separately.
Page 29
WiFi sensors have capability to send email in case of alarm on channel is activated. Up to four email recipients can be configured. Addresses of email recipients are configurable at Email protocol settings. Each recipient can be enabled or disabled separately at alarm settings. Image above illustrates how settings of alarms works.

limit for longer time than is set delay. Alarm state persists till measured value goes under limit with hysteresis (50 % - 2 % = 48 %). Recalculation of measured values Measured values can be re-calculated using linear equation. This option can be enabled when some correction of measured values is needed.
Alarms settings Alarm setting page allows for globally enable or disable audible and optical LED signalisation. There is option to enable local or remote mute of as well. System alarms System alarms are used to diagnose functionality of measurement chain including device or connected probes.
Network settings WiFi Client For usage of WiFi sensors at final deployment it needs to be device connected into infrastructure access point. Setup of connection parameters (SSID and password) is done at the WiFi client menu. Scan item shows WiFi networks at range.
Page 33
Setup of LAN parameters for Client mode. It can be used static IP address or IP address can be obtained from DHCP server automatically. By default, is DHCP option enabled. In case of static IP address need to be used, please contact your network administrator.
Page 34
AP mode AP mode is intended for device provisioning and for a first setup. WiFi sensor comes into AP mode when SSID for WiFi client mode is blank. Device can be switched into AP mode by the device buttons manually if needed. When device is switched into AP mode by buttons and there is no other communication with WiFi sensor, device is switched back to client mode automatically after 10 minutes.

Device can send keep alive emails and repeat warning emails when alarm on channels persists. In case of COMET Cloud or COMET Database is used, it is not mandatory set sending emails from device itself. COMET Cloud and COMET Database have independent way how to send warning emails.
Page 37
In addition to the correct setup of SMTP server connection, the address of email sender and addresses of recipients needs to be set. WiFi sensors support up to four recipients which can be for each type of email enabled independently. It can be set email at text or html format according needs. Alarm repeat interval can be selected at range 10 min to 12 hours.
Page 38
Proper settings of SMTP parameters can be tested at Advanced options menu accessible from main page. At first step need to be email and SMTP connection properly set at settings. After that email can be tested. Return codes are described at table below. Last state Description Unknown...

Battery symbol at LCD or wrong device time Device time is maintained by internal RTC (real-time clock) circuit with coin- cell backup battery. Battery lifetime is designed for a whole device lifespan and is not exchangeable by the end-user. In case of battery sign at LCD display and red exclamation mark at the web pages are shown, it means that current time may not be correct.
WiFi network connection problems In case of troubles with connection into WiFi network these steps may to be followed: 1. At first step please makes sure that are inserted proper WiFi connection credentials like SSID, password and encryption type. Credentials can be tested with another WiFi devices if needed.
Page 60
In case of WiFi sensor with SMA connector (option Wx7xxQ) is used, please make sure that antenna according Technical specification is used. Incompatible external antenna may to affect RF performance of WiFi sensor. Recommended signal strength (RSSI) is higher than -70 dBm (e.g. -55 dBm). Signal strength can be examined by following steps: 1.
Recommendations for operation and maintenance Operation in application areas Before putting the device into operation, it should be considered, if device is suitable for the intended purpose. Device settings should be determined together with intended use case. In case that the device is part of a larger measurement system, instructions for its metrological and operational checks should be developed.
LCD display or device webpages. b) Check whether measured values are properly transferred into data acquisition platform like is COMET Cloud or COMET Database. Data are transmitted according to selected sensing interval. c) Check history data inside data acquisition platform for any unexpected data outage or alarm states.
IT security advices IT security is an important aspect of deployment of any device connected into wired or wireless networks. It is not important from application and measurement device standpoint only, but overall integrity of network infrastructure itself. Any not adequately secured network device or IoT device may to compromise security of network.
Firmware update Device firmware can be updated via web pages – Advanced options / Service menu. In case of security is enabled, administrator permissions are required. Firmware downgrade is not supported via web pages. Latest firmware version can be obtained from manufacturer webpages or from technical support.
