nearby leaf or plant.
 ransmits readings every 79.5 seconds.
 LCD display for current reading.
When paired with a DP1500 Wi-Fi gateway:
 Displays temperature readings on the live data page of the WS View app
(requires the DP1500 and your smartphone to use the same Wi-Fi network).
 Up to 8 channels are supported. he channel names can be edited in the app.
 Battery level information is displayed in the WS View app.
When paired with a weather station onsole (HP1000SE PRO series / WH3900):
 Real-time temperature data shown on the display (HP1000SE PRO series
only).
 Up to 8 channels are supported. he channel names can be edited on the
console.
 Use of Ecowitt Weather Server:View current temperature data, historical
records and graphs on the website.
 Receive email alerts from the server.
 Remote monitoring with smartphone, laptop or computer by visiting the
website.
Setup ( ommissioning):
Inserting the battery
1. remove the battery compartment on the back of the transmitter by removing

Figure 2: Inserting the battery
2. insert a 1.5 V AA battery (pay attention to the polarity: the flat side of the
battery must be against the spring side of the battery compartment).
he temperature reading is immediately displayed on the LCD screen and is
normally updated every 79.5 seconds (the sensor transmission update period).
Note: If no reading is displayed on the screen, make sure the battery is
inserted correctly or a proper reset has been performed. Make sure the battery
is inserted correctly. Do not insert the battery upside down.
3. close the battery cover
Pla ement of the sensor:
his unit can be mounted on a crossbar (compatible diameter range: 19~29mm; not
included) using the supplied hose clamp.

When tightening the nut: Turn the nut by hand until no more turns are possible,
then use a spanner to turn 1/3 ~ 1/2 turn and no more.
Atta h the unit to the rossbar (not in luded) with the supplied hose lamp:

Alignment or tilt: Make sure that the sensor side (PCB grid visible) is facing
upwards and adjust the sensor so that it is level with the leaf to be monitored.
Normally the inclination should be between 0 and 30 degrees. his simulates
the real wet conditions matched to the leaves.
Wi-Fi Configuration:
o view sensor data on your mobile app and receive email alerts on our
weather server, you need to pair this device with our froggit DP1500 or our
HP1000SE PRO Series / WH3900 weather station (each sold separately).
Pairing with froggit DP1500:
If the DP1500 has already been in use and you have never set up a DP10
sensor before, simply switch on the sensor and the DP1500 will automatically
accept the sensor data.
Note: he DP1500 can support up to 8 DP10 temperature sensors. Each new
sensor will be recognised as a new channel according to the power-up
sequence. You can assign a label to the channel on each sensor to distinguish
it. he channel name can be edited both in the app and on ecowitt.net (the
name edited in the app is not synchronised with the ecowitt.net website and
should be edited separately on the device setup page on ecowitt.net).
If you want to use a new DP10 sensor to replace the old one (which is already
configured on a specific channel), please try the following:
1. open the Sensor ID page in the WS View app and locate your old sensor ID.
Switch off the old sensor and switch on the new sensor. 3.
On the Sensor ID page, click 'Register New'.
he new sensor will then be enrolled and the old sensor will be deleted.
View online data with WS View:
When the Wi-Fi configuration is complete (to tell the DP1500 to connect to
your Wi-Fi network), your sensor data and the sensor's battery voltage
information will be displayed in the WS View app on the Live Data page.

Note:
Your smartphone and the DP1500 must be on the same network when
viewing live data from your sensor in the WS View App. Live data refers to
actual data received from the DP1500 and is not stored
However, the data is always transferred to and stored in the www.ecowitt.net
Cloud (under your registered account, and you can access it at any time via
