The original YoLink Hub or the SpeakerHub is required for full functionality.

The YoLink X3 Temperature & Humidity Sensor is a smart wireless combination thermometer and hygrometer. By monitoring the real-time temperature and humidity levels at the sensor location, it can provide you with the current conditions as well as alert you to off-normal conditions.

For full functionality, your smart X3 Temperature & Humidity Sensor connects to the internet by connecting wirelessly to one of our hubs (original YoLink Hub or the SpeakerHub), not via WiFi or other wireless methods. If you do not already have a YoLink hub, and unless there is an existing YoLink wireless network in your building (for example, an apartment complex or condominium building), please purchase and set-up your hub before proceeding with the installation of your new sensor.

The X3 Temperature & Humidity Sensor has onboard memory capable of storing over 5000 events. If your sensor loses its connection to the internet, it is capable of storing and later uploading recorded events to the cloud (making them available to you via the app, for viewing and exporting, etc.). For example, if set for 1 minute intervals, the sensor can store at least 30 days of sensor data. Recording intervals are set in the app (see Part K).

To provide years between battery changes, your sensor refreshes at least once an hour or more frequently if the SET button is pressed or if the temperature or humidity change meets refresh criteria as explained in the user guide.

P. Third-party Assistants & Integrations

The YoLink X3 Temperature & Humidity Sensor works with several voice assistants, including Alexa and Google, and it works with other automation platforms such as IFTTT.

To set up voice assistant integrations, in the app, go to Settings, Third-Party Services, and follow the instructions.

Please note, only IFTTT supports X3 Temperature & Humidity Sensor as trigger action in the routine.

Alexa only supports querying the temperature of the device, Google only supports querying the temperature or humidity of the devices.

For example, edit the name of the device in Alexa or Google to “Sunroom”, then you can ask: “Echo, what is the sunroom temperature?”

You can also try, “Alexa, what is the temperature of the Sunroom sensor?”

If you want to hear the voice announcement from Alexa when the sensor alerts, you can consider VoiceMonkey skill.

1. Go to Alexa, enable the Voice Monkey Skill in Alexa
2. Sign in to the Voice Monkey website: https://app.voicemonkey.io/login - login with Amazon Alexa account
3. On Voice Monkey website, on Manage Monkeys Page, add a monkey, name it as “Sunroom Monkey"
4. Go to IFTTT app, create an applet, if this - YoLink - THS - complete trigger fields, then that - Alexa Voice Monkey - choose Trigger Monkey(Routine) - select “Sunroom Monkey"
5. Go to Alexa to set up a routine, when this happens - choose smart home - choose “Sunroom Monkey", add action...

Q. Firmware Updates

Your YoLink products are constantly being improved, with new features added. It is periodically necessary to make changes to your device's firmware. For optimal performance of your system, and to give you access to all available features for your devices, these firmware updates should be installed when they become available.

In the Detail screen of each device, at the bottom, you will see the Firmware section, as shown in the image below. A firmware update is available for your device if it says “#### ready now” - tap in this area to start the update

The device will update automatically, indicating progress by percentage complete. The LED light will slowly blink green during the update and the update may continue for several minutes beyond the light turning off

R. Factory Reset

Factory reset will erase device settings and restore it to factory defaults.

Instructions:

Hold the SET button down for 20-25 seconds until the LED blinks red and green alternatively, then, release the button, as holding the button longer than 25 seconds will abort the factory reset operation.

Factory reset will be complete when the status light stops blinking.

Only deleting a device from the app will remove it from your account
