If I have the outdoor sensor as well as my IAQ tstat, can I see the outdoor temp and humidity on their web interface?

I personally don't have this device anymore, however, If my memory serves me right I believe so. On the other hand, I would not recommend this product as it's not entirely reliable a lot of resetting from what I recall. It may have just been a bad model but in any case for the money I would rather recommend to anyone looking to have wireless access to their thermostat to simply upgrade to the latest Honeywell Smart. It's really reliable and has Wifi built in. No need for exterior sensor as this picks up your local temperature from the web. I've had one now for close to a year and I must say I love it.

You can see the outdoor temperature but not outdoor humidity on the web interface.

Yes, the internet interface shows exactly what you see on the thermostat itself.

No. It only measures surface temps. On a side note, my unit broke within an hour of delivery. I would not recommend this product.

That should not be a problem with the Extech Thermometer. The battery compartment is not sealed water tight and there are slots in the unit to let air in to read humidity so I would make sure it is located outdoors where it would not get rained on.

As far as I can tell, it only displays ambient unless you press a button, then it shows the set temp temporarily.

Sensor could be placed anywhere outside as long as there is an overhang or something to keep the rain and wet weather from directly hitting it. I love this clock and sensor. Works really well. We placed our sensor on the underside of our bow window any spot on your balcony with a little protection from direct rain. :)

Yes. Assuming that you mean to use the indoor sensor, go to Installer Options and select one or more sensors for the temperature reading (choosing multiple sensors, including the thermostat itself, will average the temperature readings). The indoor sensors also read humidity, but you can only choose one (but you can choose a different one for dehumidification if you'd like). If you mean to use the remote sensor (w/ display) then link it to whichever thermostat you'd like it to work with.

On the back of the sensor, there are 2 sensors or contact points. When water touches the 2 points it completes the circuit. It is designed to sit in a drip pan of some sort. You would have to make your own mounts. I believe it senses ambient temp.

The sensor that I bought measures temp, humidity and does leak detection. I use it in the laundry room and to monitor the AC system evap trap.

The dual answer is yes. The device has both a clip on sensor for oven temp as well as an internal probe for reading food temp. Both temps are simultaneously displayed. The accuracy seems spot on.

Probably...the difficulty is going to be getting the sensor to be able to read something that is not static....but, will give you a general idea of the temperature, I think.

Yes, when you log into your account the website will display the local outdoor temperature (based on your zip code) and the indoor temperature as read by the thermostat.

I don't know. But I can tell you we put our sensor out side so it tells us outside temp.

If you see it connected, it is reading it. However, it does not display its readings. What it does do is display by default is the average temperature and humidity of both locations. Deep in the thermostat menu you can change that option to display sensor temperature and humidity, thermostat temperature and humidity, or the average of both.

I don't see why you wouldn't be able to. If you want telemetry heat and voltage those are all going to require separate sensors and what not. Idk how accurate the telemetry is though.

I haven't used it with a moisture sensor, but even better than that if you connect it to the web as you should, it will pick up the weather from a local weather station and only water when it isn't raining. You can set how long to switch off if it has rained. Much more reliable than a moisture sensor I think! (I love this device by the way)

I bought this as a gift as I received a similar one as one. For mine, the outside sensor should be sheltered from direct sunlight as you want the temperature to reflect "in the shade." How you could do this without "getting rained on" is beyond me. Mine is under an eve. If you have no eve access, I suggest you improvise a simple one. make sure there's enough circulation room as to not trap heat and damage the sensor or at least cause it to give invalid readings. Good luck...

The outdoor sensor that gives you the reading of outdoor temperature & humidity first off should be mounted on the north side of your home so that it will be exposed to as little sunlight as possible for accuracy. As for the question as to how it is powered, the outdoor sensor does not use batteries so it isn't wireless. The wall control unit gets its power supply from an 18-5 (18 gauge, 5 conductor thermostat wire that ties into your steam humidifier unit from the wall control unit) Your outdoor sensor has to have a separate wire that goes from it using a 18-2 (18 gauge, 2 conductor thermostat wire) and this wire gets directly connected to the indoor wall controller as well. There is also a need for a second 18-5 wire that connects from your steam humidifier and splices into the wiring for your finance. Your furnace should already have an existing 18-5 wire that runs from the furnace to your regular thermostat controller. I hope this helps and is not too confusing. Just remember you can always call an HVAC company to help with this issue although it won't be cheap.
