If you connect a Temperature & Analog sensor, Temperature & Active Power sensor or Temperature & Air Flow sensor to your Room Alert Monitor, you must manually set its Sensor Type; otherwise, the sensor type is set to “Temperature / Humidity” by default.
1. First open your Room Alert Monitor’s web interface through one of Room Alert’s discovery utilities. You may also type the IP address of the unit directly into the address bar of your web browser.
2. Next, navigate to the device’s Settings –> Sensors page.
3. Scroll to your external digital sensor(s), the total number of which will vary depending on the Room Alert model.
4. Find the digital sensor interface that matches the port you connected your sensor to.
5. Notice that the drop-down list in Sensor Type defaults to Temp/Humidity.
– If you’re working with a Temperature & Analog sensor, select Temp/Analog.
– If you’re working with Temperate & Active Power sensor, select Temp/Active Power.
6. Select Save Settings at the top or bottom of the page. Your Room Alert Monitor will automatically reboot and commit your changes.
7. Your Room Alert Status page will now show the correct sensor type.
– This will be updated at RoomAlert.com and Room Alert Manager, as well.
