XW-110™ WiFi Temperature Sensor Users Manual Introduction
Section 1: Introduction
T e XW-110 and XW-110-Plus are easy-to-use Wi-Fi temperature sensors t at measure and report real-
time temperature. T e XW-110 monitors temperatures using a precision internal digital temperature
sensor (included), or an external temperature probe (not included.) T e XW-110-PlusTM supports
monitoring of up to t ree external temperature sensors. It is ideal for applications w ere temperatures
must be monitored and Et ernet wiring is not accessible or practical to install.
T e XW-110 is powered by an external wall transformer (5VDC), or by two internal AA batteries. In t e
case bot are installed, t e XW-110 will use t e wall transformer and automatically switc to t e
batteries in t e event of a power failure. Only use batteries to provide backup power, or for modes w ere
t e web server is not being used. If t e internal web server is enabled in t e XW-110, t e unit will need
to be powered by an external wall transformer. Some configurations consume more power t an ot ers
leading to some scenarios w ere battery operation is not practical. For example, measuring and
transmitting t e temperature every five seconds could result in depleting t e batteries very quickly.
Having more features enabled and/or increased reporting rate leads to lower battery life.
T e XW-110 can utilize one of two modes of operation. T e first being t e "Stand-Alone" mode w ic
makes t e XW-110 a self-contained device t at requires no additional servers or ControlByWeb devices.
In t is mode t e XW-110 products can provide live, real-time temperatures directly to users t roug web
browsers or t e CBW Mobile app. In addition, t e stand-alone mode offers t e ability to monitor
temperature and send out email alerts (w ic can be converted to text message alerts) w enever an
alarm condition occurs.
T e second mode of operation is "Slave" mode w ic is used for measuring and reporting t e
temperature status to ot er ControlByWeb devices. In t is mode, t e XW-110 is not directly accessible
to t e user. Temperature readings are transmitted to a server or anot er ControlByWeb device suc as
t e X-600M controller w ic acts as a "master.” T e master device uses t e information provided by t e
XW-110 as it would use information collected by any ot er sensor. Note: the XW-110-Plus is targeted
for stand-alone applications and the Slave mode is not available with the XW-110-Plus version.
A t ree-position terminal strip provides connections for up to t ree temperature sensors. No ot er
cables, interfaces, or PC utility programs are needed.
Two user accessible pus -button switc es aid in provisioning t e module. Press t e “Access Point”
button anytime to active t e access point mode. Wit a PC or smart p one you t en connect to and
access t e internal web server no matter w at mode t e unit is currently set to. Using t e web server,
you configure t e measurement interval, access port, name, and ot er setup parameters. Alternatively,
add t e XW-110 to an existing network by pressing t e “WPS” (Wi-Fi Protected Setup) button on bot
t e XW-110 and on your access point (i.e., router).
T e XW-110-Plus is generally identical to t e XW-110 but as additional features and capabilities for
extra sensors and remote services. T e XW-110-Plus can be configured to automatically connect to
ControlByWeb.cloud. T is feature allows internet access to an XW-110-Plus w ic is installed be ind a
network router, wit out t e need to setup port forwarding in t e router. T is also allows easy installation
using DHCP wit out t e need to assign a specific IP address. Since t e connection from t e XW-110-
Plus is outgoing, rat er t an incoming, t e local router on t e network w ere t e XW-110-Plus resides
doesn't need to be configured to forward sockets. T is simplifies t e installation since t e router
configuration is not modified.
Additionally, t e XW-110-Plus allows for logging time and temperature data to temporary memory. Once
per day at a time configured by t e user, t e XW-110-Plus will generate and send an email wit all t e
logged data to an email account set by t e user. T is allows for long-term accumulation of temperature
data.

1.1.3 Wireless Communication Notes
Due to t e nature of wireless communications, transmission and reception of data can not be
guaranteed. Data may be delayed, ave errors, or be lost. Alt oug delays or losses of data are rare
wit a well constructed network, data can be lost due to interference, noise, reflections, or ot er
environmental conditions. T e XW-110 s ould not be used in situations w ere failure to transmit or
receive data could result in damage to property, equipment, direct, indirect, consequential, or incidental
damage, including damage for loss of business profit, business interruption, loss of data, life, and t e
like.

Section 2: Installation and Setup
2.1 XW-110 Temperature Sensor Connections
T e XW-110 uses “1-Wire” digital temperature sensors. T e XW-110 supports one sensor and t e XW-
110-Plus supports up to t ree sensors. T e sensors are interc angeable and require no calibration. T e
sensors accuracy is +/-0.5°C (-10°C to +85°C). T e sensor requires t ree connections for
communications and power (+3.3V, Ground, Data). T e temperature sensor is available in several
configurations.
For monitoring room temperature, t e bare sensor can be connected directly to t e terminal strip. W en
installing t e bare sensor, make certain t e flat side is oriented towards t e bottom. T e encapsulated
version as a stainless steel probe and can be used in outdoor applications owever, t e probe is not
suitable for immersion or use in pressure vessels.
For immersion and ot er demanding applications use a t ermowell to protect t e sensor. T e basic
sensor (non-encapsulated) must used in protected locations. T e XW-110 will work wit cable lengt s
up to 50-feet and s ould not be routed near motors or AC wiring.
T e enclosure can be mounted to a wall or panel wit screws (not included). T e two screw oles are
located underneat t e batteries. W en ControlByWeb modules are to be used in applications w ere
t ey could be exposed to water, ig amounts of dust, bugs, or ot er environmental factors, we
recommend mounting t em inside a sealed plastic enclosure.

Extending Temperature Sensors
Many factors can determine t e maximum lengt of t e cable, including t e sensor network topology,
t e type of cable used, t e number of sensors and ambient electromagnetic noise.
Multiple sensors can be connected to t e XW-110 Plus in two ways: directly connected (star topology) or
“daisy c ained” (linear topology), s own below.
Combined cable lengt s to all sensors of 50 ft using Cat 5e cable ave been successful; owever, due
to t e uniqueness of installation environments, results may vary. Please test in t e desired environment
before making a permanent installation.
T e following are general recommendations t at will maximize sensor runs and minimize problems:
•Use small gauge 3-conductor wire (Cat 5e, 18-3 t ermostat wire, etc).
•Cat6 wire can be used, but Cat 5 and Cat 5e network cable is recommended, and as proven to
be an effective and low-cost solution for long runs. Cat 5e is more tolerant of different wiring
configurations.
•Non-s ielded works best for longer runs (s ielding limits run lengt ).
•T e 1-Wire bus is "single-ended" and as no intrinsic noise protection. It is susceptible to
interference if t e cable is routed near power lines, fluorescent fixtures, motors or ot er noise
sources. Keep t e cable wiring s ort and avoid routing it near ot er electrical equipment.
T e illustration below s ows t e recommended connection using Cat 5 network cable. Connect all
unused conductors to ground on t e XW-110 or XW-110 Plus.
A linear (daisy c ain) topology will minimize signal reflections, providing a more reliable connection and
will allow longer cable lengt t an a star topology.

2.2 ower / Batteries
T e XW-110 is powered from eit er a 5-volt DC wall transformer or two internal 1.5V “AA” batteries. If
t e wall adapter is connected, no power is drawn from t e batteries. If t e external power fails t e
module automatically switc es to t e internal batteries. No jumpers or switc es are needed. T e wall
adapter s ould be used for certain modes wit ig current demands suc as: “Stand-Alone mode” wit
HTTP server enabled, “Slave mode” wit ig reporting rates, or w en “access point” is active.
Install t e batteries as s own. Observe t e “+” and “-” markings molded in t e enclosure underneat t e
batteries. Bot batteries s ould be replaced at t e same time. Do not install t e XW-110 inside a freezer
or w ere low temperature conditions would severely diminis t e battery capacity.

2.3 rovisioning
After making t e sensor connections and providing power, you must provision t e XW-110 for use on
your wireless network. T e goal is to configure t e XW-110 suc t at it can recognize and attac to your
Wi-Fi access point. T ere are two met ods for doing t is:
1. Access oint
By default, t e XW-110 comes up as a wireless access point w en powered for t e first time. Pressing
t e "access point" pus button any time also activates t e access point mode. It isn't really an access
point because it will not provide internet connectivity to your computer or smart p one, but it will appear
as an access point meaning t at your computer or smart p one will detect it as an access point and
display it as suc . W en acting as an access point, t e XW-110 broadcasts an SSID of “XW110-
XXXXXX” w ere XXXXXX are t e last six digits of its MAC address.
Wit your wireless device (laptop computer or smart p one) scan for, and attac to t e XW110 wireless
network. Next, access t e web server in t e XW-110 using a web browser. To access t e setup pages,
enter t e following URL in t e address bar of your web browser:
http://192.168.1.2/setup.html
After t e page is requested, a password prompt will appear. Enter t e username and password. T e
username is admin and t e password is webrelay (password is case sensitive). T e next c apter
explains eac of t e setup tabs and screens. Use t e WiFi etworks tab for making t e proper settings
to allow t e XW-110 to connect to your access point.
Notes About Access Point Mode:
•Operates at full power and will consume large amounts of energy and drain batteries quickly. It
is recommended t at you use a wall-transformer to power t e unit w en operating in access
point mode or configure t e XW-110 quickly.
•As an Access Point t e XW-110 functions independently of ot er wireless networks. It
broadcasts beacons and services WiFi packet requests. In t is mode, your computer or smart-
p one is "connected" directly wit t e XW-110 on a private network and is NOT using anot er
wifi network. Typically you would use t is for configuration and not for normal operation.
•T e XW-110 as no ardware “restore defaults” button, to prevent t e installer from being
locked out, t e default username (admin) and password (webrelay) always work in t e
access point mode, even if t e password is c anged. If t e password as c anged via t e
Password tab, bot t e new password and t e webrelay password will work.
•Only one client (computer or smart-p one) can be connected to XW-110 at a time.
•SSID and password cannot be customized (once again t is mode is intended for configuration
only).
•Access point is unsecured and open.
2. W S (Wi-Fi rotected Setup)
T e WPS Push button method, provides a simple met od for attac ing t e XW-110 to a wireless
network wit out needing to use any setup pages. Alt oug using t is met od to connect t e XW-110 to
t e network is simple, you will not be able to access t e XW-110 web server unless you know t e IP
address t at was assigned by t e DHCP sever (router) or unless mDNS services are available on your
device. For t is reason, it is recommended t at you use t is met od of configuration only w en t e XW-
110 units ave been pre-configured to operate in a non-web-server mode or w en you ave full access
Xytronix Research & Design, Inc. Page 9
Installation and Setup XW-110™ WiFi Temperature Sensor Users Manual
to t e DHCP server so you can obtain t e IP address t at was assigned.
To begin, press t e WPS button on your wireless router or access-point. You will generally ave about
two minutes to connect wireless devices to t e network wit WPS. Now remove t e cover of t e XW-110
and press t e “WPS” pus button. After a few seconds, t e XW-110 s ould register itself wit t e router
or access-point. If WPS fails, t e XW-110 will automatically enter t e access point mode.
T e XW-110 will use DHCP to obtain an IP address after a successful WPS association. Additionally,
t e connection information is also broadcast using mDNS. If you need to access t e XW-110 using its
internal web server you will need to obtain t e IP address t at was assigned to t e XW-110 t roug your
DHCP server or router. Alternatively, if using an mDNS capable device, it may be accessed by entering
t e appropriate URL into t e address bar of your web browser:
