【3-in-1 Environmental Monitoring】Monitor your home easily with the 3-in-1 functionality of the Aqara sensor. It accurately measures temperature, humidity and air pressure and ensures that you are always informed about your living conditions. All data is captured in real time and displayed in the Aqara app. This allows you to identify trends and make adjustments for a healthier and more pleasant living environment.
Remote monitoring and home automation: If the room temperature exceeds or falls below a certain limit, the Aqara temperature and humidity sensor can send a push notification to your smartphone or activate the night light of the Aqara Hub. In addition, the Aqara temperature and humidity sensor can control other connected devices such as the Aqara Smart Plug to ensure that your fan or humidifier provides a consistently pleasant climate for you and your family.
Proximity: For a stable connection and accurate transmission of temperature and humidity data, make sure that the Aqara temperature and humidity sensor is within a radius of 10.24 m around the Aqara Zigbee hub and the hub is within the same range as the WiFi router. Also make sure the hub and router are on the same local network (LAN).
Precise measurement: uses a high-quality sensor from the industry-leading manufacturer Sensirion. (Please avoid installing the Aqara temperature sensor in environments with extreme temperatures, such as in the fridge.) Note: Pull out the plastic battery tab before holding down the reset button to start the device. If the device disconnects, please make sure the battery is charged. Otherwise, turn the temperature sensor to remove the battery cover and put the battery back in.
*【Notes】An Aqara hub is required and available separately. (NOTE: Hubs of other brands are not supported.) Requires a secure 2.4GHz WiFi connection for Hub M2/M1S/E1/M1S Gen2 and Camera Hub G2H Pro/G2H as well as 2.4/5GHz WiFi for Camera Hub G3. (WLAN 6 is not supported). Wired connection via Ethernet RJ45 for Hub M2 is also supported.) In order to integrate the Aqara temperature and humidity sensor into HomeKit or activate the skills in Alexa, a Aqara hub is also required for linking.
