1Introduction

Thank you for your purchase of the Ambient Weather WS-0270 Wireless Indoor/Outdoor

Thermometer with Indoor Humidity. The following user guide provides step by step instructions for

installation, operation and troubleshooting. To download the latest manual and additional

troubleshooting tips, please visit:

http://AmbientWeather.net/help

2Getting Started

Note: The power up sequence must be performed in the order shown in this section (insert

batteries in the remote transmitter(s) first, Display Console second).

The WS-0270 weather station consists of a display console (receiver), and a thermometer (remote

transmitter).

2.2 Recommend Tools

Hammer for hanging remote thermometer transmitter.

2.3 Thermometer Sensor Set Up

Note: Do not use rechargeable batteries. They tend to have a lower operating voltage, do not have

a wide temperature range, and do not last as long as non-rechargeable batteries.

We recommend fresh alkaline batteries for outdoor temperature ranges between -4 °F and 140 °F and

fresh lithium batteries for outdoor temperature ranges between -40 °F and 140 °F.

1. Remove the battery door on the back of the sensor by sliding the compartment door down, as

shown in Figure 1 .

2. Insert one AA battery.

3. After inserting the battery, the remote sensor LED indicator will light for 4 seconds, and then

flash once per 60 seconds thereafter. Each time it flashes, the sensor is transmitting data.

4. Close the battery door.

2.4 Display Console Set Up

1. Move the remote thermometer(s) about 5 to 10’ away from the display console (if the sensor

is too close, it may not be received by the display console).

2. Remove the battery door on the back of the display, as shown in Figure 2. Insert one AA

(alkaline or lithium, avoid rechargeable) battery in the back of the display console.

All of the LCD segments will light up for a few seconds to verify all segments are operating properly.

3. Replace the battery door, and fold out the desk stand and place the console in the upright

position.

The console will instantly display indoor temperature and humidity. The remote

temperature will update on the display within a few minutes.

While in the search mode, the reception search icon flash.

If the remote does not update, please reference the troubleshooting guide in Section 7.

2.4.2 Sensor Operation Verification

Verify the indoor and outdoor temperature match closely with the console and sensor array in the same

location (about 5 to 10’ apart). The sensors should be within 2°F (the accuracy is ± 1°F). Allow

about 30 minutes for both sensors to stabilize.

3Wireless Sensor Installation

It is recommended you mount the remote sensor in a shaded area. Direct sunlight and radiant heat

sources will result in inaccurate temperature readings. Although the sensor is water resistant, it is best

to mount in a well-protected area, such as under an eve.

3.1 Mounting with Zip Tie

Mounting the sensor with a zip tie will result in better accuracy when mounting outside, since it is not

touching another object. Other objects will store and radiate heat (or cold).

Figure 4

3.2 Mounting with Nail or Screw

To mount the sensor with a nail or screw, the cap must be less than or equal to 5.0 mm in diameter.

Figure 5

4Console Operation

Note: The console has two buttons for easy operation: °C / °F button (on the left), and High /

Low Record button (on the right).

4.1 Temperature Units of Measure

To change the temperature units of measure, press the C / °F button (on the left).

4.2 High Low Record

The indoor temperature, indoor humidity, and outdoor temperature can be reset every 24 hours (based

on when the batteries are inserted), or never.

Press the High / Low Record button (on the right) to switch between reset 24 hours or never.

To reset the highs and lows, remove and reinsert the battery inside the console. If Reset 24 hour option

is selected, the highs and lows will reset 24 hours after the battery is inserted.

4.3 Sensor Resynchronization

If the remote sensor is lost, dashes will be displayed. To resynchronize, press both the °C / °F and

High / Low Record buttons at the same time for five seconds.

While in the search mode, the reception search icon flash.

4.3.1Best Practices for Wireless Communication

Note: To insure proper communication, mount the remote sensor on a vertical surface, such as a

wall. Do not lay the sensor flat.

Wireless communication is susceptible to interference, distance, walls and metal barriers. We

recommend the following best practices for trouble free wireless communication.

1. Electro-Magnetic Interference (EMI). Keep the console several feet away from computer

monitors and TVs.

2. Radio Frequency Interference (RFI). If you have other 433 MHz devices and

communication is intermittent, try turning off these other devices for troubleshooting

purposes. You may need to relocate the transmitters or receivers to avoid intermittent

communication.

3. Line of Sight Rating. This device is rated at 300 feet line of sight (no interference, barriers or

walls) but typically you will get 100 feet maximum under most real-world installations,

which include passing through barriers or walls.

4. Metal Barriers. Radio frequency will not pass through metal barriers such as aluminum

siding. If you have metal siding, align the remote and console through a window to get a clear

line of sight.

The following is a table of reception loss vs. the transmission medium. Each “wall” or obstruction

decreases the transmission range by the factor shown below.

Definition

Accuracy

Accuracy is defined as the ability of a measurement to match the actual

value of the quantity being measured.

Hygrometer

A hygrometer is a device that measures relative humidity. Relative

humidity is a term used to describe the amount or percentage of water

vapor that exists in air.

Range

Range is defined as the amount or extent a value can be measured.

Problem

Solution

Wireless remote (thermometer) not

reporting in to console.

There are dashes (--.-) on the display

console.

If sensor communication is lost, dashes (--.-) will be

displayed on the screen. To reacquire the signal, To

resynchronize, press both the °C / °F and High / Low

Record buttons at the same time for five seconds., and

the remote search icon will flash. Once the signal

Problem

Solution

is reacquired, the remote search icon will turn on,

and the current values will be displayed.

The maximum line of sight communication range is 265’

and 100’ under most conditions. Move the sensor

assembly closer to the display console.

If the sensor assembly is too close (less than 5’), move

the sensor assembly away from the display console.

Make sure the remote sensor transmitter light is flashing

once per 60 seconds.

Install a fresh set of batteries in the remote thermometer.

For cold weather environments, install lithium batteries.

Make sure the remote sensors are not transmitting

through solid metal (acts as an RF shield), or earth

barrier (down a hill).

Move the display console around electrical noise

generating devices, such as computers, TVs and other

wireless transmitters or receivers.

Move the remote sensor to a higher location. Move the

remote sensor to a closer location.

Temperature sensor reads too high in the

day time.

Make sure the thermometer is mounted in a shaded area

on the north facing wall. Consider the following

radiation shield if this is not possible:

Display console contrast is weak

Replace console batteries with a fresh set of batteries.
