Connect to Wi-Fi - Stat Temp v2
Setup Your Device
- Unbox your Stat Temp monitor and sensor(s).
- Place the sensor in its desired location.
- Plug the device into power with the supplied power cord.
- Turn the device on by sliding the power switch into the up position.
Before you connect your monitor to Wi-Fi, here is some important information to consider:
- Does the web connection require users to enter information on any kind of captive portal/login page? This can block our devices from successfully authenticating. This will require IT involvement.
- Our Wi-Fi devices only support 2.4GHz networks. These devices will not connect to 5GHz networks. If bandsteering is enabled on your network, you may need to disable it.
- Confirm these ports are open:
- TCP Port 8883 outbound (MQTT over SSL), destination address: iot.stattemp.io, IP addresses 54.173.251.106 and 3.221.75.93
- Port 123 (NTP), host: pool.ntp.org

Wi-Fi Connection Troubleshooting
This guide is designed to offer assistance in resolving any Wi-Fi connectivity issues you may encounter with your device. Whether you are experiencing problems with the ESP BLE Prov app or facing connectivity issues after successfully pairing the monitor, this guide is here to help.
| Issue: | Recommended Action: |
|---|---|
| App Error - Device could not be scanned. Please try again. | Check to ensure the QR code being scanned is the correct code. The monitor display should say "Let's connect to Wifi". If the QR code says "Download app", press the black button on top of the monitor to proceed to the correct QR Code If the correct QR code is displayed, close the app on the phone and re-open it to scan again. If neither of those QR codes is showing, you will need to perform a factory reset. Directions for that are below. |
| App Error - Failed to get device version information with error: Encryption is insufficient. | When this error occurs, it means that the device you are using will no longer work to connect to Wi-Fi. This is temporary but it is unclear how long it takes to resolve itself. The quickest way to get connected is to try downloading the app to a different device. |
| App Error - Security applied for communicating with device does not match configuration setting | Delete the app from the phone and re-download it. Then try to connect to Wi-Fi again. If that does not correct the error, a reset on the phone may be required. • IOS - press the volume up then the volume down buttons, then hold the power button until the apple symbol shows, then release the power button. When the phone restarts, try to open the app and connect to Wi-Fi. • Android - press and hold the power button for up to 20 seconds and wait for it to restart. If that does not work, hold down the volume up and power buttons at the same time for 20 seconds. When the phone restarts, try to open the app and connect to Wi-Fi. |
1004 - Network Connection Issue No cloud icon or WiFi bars |
This indicates there is a network error. If first setting up the device, the password could have been entered incorrectly. You will need to do a factory reset and try to reconnect the device. Directions below. If this monitor was previously connected to the WiFi network, there may have been a network change. Contact your IT support team and provide them with the Firewall Requirements listed below and the MAC address from the sticker on the monitor's back. |
1005 - Network Connection Issue No cloud icon, but has WiFi bars |
The monitor is connected to the network but cannot establish a connection to the server. This is usually caused by firewall restrictions. Contact your IT support team and provide them with the Firewall Requirements listed below and the MAC address from the sticker on the monitor's back. |
| 100c - Network Connection Issue | This is a common error that can happen if the monitor is running on battery. When the monitor takes its next reading, it will reestablish connection and send the reading to the web portal. |

Our Stat Temp hardware allows for an alternative method of network provisioning that does not require a separate application. This method is specifically useful in the following circumstances:
- IP information must be manually configured
- The wireless network utilizes Enterprise authentication/encryption
- Connecting to a hidden network that is not broadcasting its SSID.
- You have a large number of devices you are deploying
