SKU: 10421572337991
Prodcut Name: Shelly Wave H&T Z-Wave Temperature Monitor
-
Tools required:
- Small Phillips screwdriver or coin (to open battery cover)
- New CR123A battery
- Pen or label for location marking (optional)
-
Applications:
- Z-Wave compatible hub or controller (model not specified)
- Hub vendor mobile app or desktop controller software (as used with your Z-Wave hub)
Setup steps (follow in order):
- Unpack and inspect: Remove the Shelly Wave H&T from packaging and confirm it is the indoor temperature & humidity sensor described by the product name. Check the unit for a removable rear cover or battery compartment.
- Install battery: Open the battery compartment using the screwdriver or coin as required. Insert a CR123A battery with correct polarity. Close the compartment until it clicks. Do not use damaged batteries.
- Initial power-up and wake: After battery insertion the device will power up. Allow 30 seconds for internal start-up. If the device has a wake or action button, press it once to wake the device so the Z-Wave controller can detect it. For exact wake/button sequences refer to the manufacturer manual; those sequences are not specified here.
- Prepare your Z-Wave hub for inclusion: Open your Z-Wave hub’s app or controller, locate the option to add or include a new device and put the hub into inclusion mode according to the hub manufacturer’s instructions.
- Include the sensor on the Z-Wave network: With the hub in inclusion mode, wake the Shelly device (press the device button or follow the device manual instructions) so the hub can discover it. Wait for the hub to confirm successful inclusion and for the new device to appear in the hub’s device list. If the hub requires naming or room assignment, do this now.
- Verify readings and device class: Once included, confirm the hub is receiving temperature and humidity values. The device is described as providing indoor temperature and humidity; confirm the appropriate sensor channels appear in your hub app (temperature and humidity sensors). If readings do not appear, wake the device again and check hub logs for pairing errors.
- Placement and mounting: Choose an indoor location away from direct sunlight, radiators, air vents, doors to the outside, and kitchens to avoid skewed readings. Mount at typical occupancy height (around 1.2–1.8 metres is common) using the manufacturer’s recommended fixing method. If the unit is freestanding, place it on a stable surface away from drafts.
- Sensor configuration in the hub: Use your hub’s app to adjust reporting intervals, thresholds or notifications if your hub supports those settings for the device. The specific configuration options available are determined by your Z-Wave hub and are not specified here.
- Final checks and calibration: Allow the sensor to stabilise for at least 30 minutes and verify readings against a known reference if required. If readings appear incorrect, check battery contact and placement, then consult your hub’s settings for any required calibration options (if available).
- Troubleshooting common issues:
- No response during inclusion: Ensure the hub is in inclusion mode and the sensor is awake; replace the battery if the unit will not wake.
- Intermittent reporting: Check battery level, move the sensor closer to the hub or add a Z-Wave range extender if range is a problem.
- Factory reset: If inclusion repeatedly fails, perform a factory reset using the procedure in the Shelly product manual, then attempt inclusion again. Exact reset instructions are not specified here.
- Maintenance and safety: Replace the CR123A battery when the hub reports a low battery or as needed. Dispose of batteries responsibly. This device is battery powered and intended for indoor use; no mains electrical work is required.
