MOUNTING
Most of the ENVIROMUX Temperature and Humidity sensors are intended for indoor use only. These sensors can be mounted
in any position but include a keyhole slot on the back to enable quick wall-mounting if des ired.

If you have purchased an ENVIROMUX Sensor with a DIN rail clip for DIN rail mounting, see the drawing (page 2) for instructions
to install the sensor to the DIN rail.

E-STHS-LCDW
The E-STHS-LCDW is a Temperature and Humidity sensor built into a large wall-mount LCD display with 2” character height for
easy viewing from a distance. There are two key-hole slots on the back, 4-1/2” apart, for hanging the sensor o n the wall. A
template has been provided to make placement and hardware location easy. There are also two brackets (with screws) that can
be mounted to the sides. These are provided for an alternate method of mounting.

Mounting Instruction
Using Side Brackets
1. Mount one side bracket to each side of the sensor with the screws provided.
2. Position sensor and mark top of keyholes.
3. Drill two 3/16” diameter holes where top of keyholes were marked.
4. Insert wall anchors (provided) and start the mounting screws.
5. Hang the sensor on the screws and snug down the screws.
Using Rear Keyhole Slots
1. Position template at mounting location and mark top of keyholes.
2. Drill two 3/16” diameter holes where top of keyholes were marked.
3. Insert wall anchors (provided) and start the mounting screws.
4. Screw in until head of screw is approximately 1/8-3/16” ” from the wall.
5. Hang the sensor on the screws.

CONNECT SENSORS
RJ45 Sensors
The temperature and humidity sensors for the E-16D/5D/2D and E-SEMS-16(U) Enterprise Environment Monitoring Systems have
RJ45 connection ports. Connect each sensor to one of the female connectors labeled "RJ45 Sensors" on the ENVIROMUX using
CAT5 cable. The male RJ45 connectors should snap into place. (See page 12 for wiring specification and pinout.) The CAT5
cable that connects the sensor to the ENVIROMUX can be up to 1000 feet in length (except for E-STHS-LCDW, which is limited to
150 feet).
Note: It is very important to locate the temperature and/or humidity sensors away from ventilation so urces and fans.
Note: Shielded CAT5 cable
is required between the
sensor and the ENVIROMUX
to maintain CE compliance
of the sensor.
Figure 3- Connect Sensors using CAT5 cable with RJ45 connectors
Application Note:
When connecting temperature and humidity sensors to the E NVIROMUX, the web interface will identify the sensor accordingly for
the type of sensor it is. The status bar and configuration page will enter the maximum and minimum range that this type of
sensor can display if used with the ENVIROMUX, not necessarily the operating range of the sensor itself. The various
temperature and humidity sensor models offered by NTI have varying ranges of performance ca pabilities, as indicated in the table
on page 11. Be sure to match the sensor installed to the operating range of the environment it will be expected to work in. Using
a sensor outside of its intended temperature range may result in damage to the sensor.
Figure 4- A portion of the sensor configuration page
This is the range the ENVIROMUX will
display, not necessarily the range the
sensor will work within. See
specifications for the sensor being
installed for the proper operating
environment.

E-STHS-PRCIND100-Pxx
The E-STHS-PRCIND100-Pxx is a precision wide-range extreme environ m ent sensor th at includes a probe-type temperature
sensor attached to the aluminum case with a special extreme-environment cable. The cable length is defined by the “xx” in the
“Pxx”. When installing this temperature sensor, the temperature sensing probe and attached cable are the only porti ons of the
sensor that can be exposed to the full extreme environment that this sensor is rated for (-40 to 212°F (-40 to 100°C)). The
aluminum case and the components therein are rated for -40 to 185°F (-40 to 85°C) and must be located in an environment within
that range. Most CATx cables are rated 32 to 140°F (0 to 60°C).
Note: When mounting the temperature probe, be sure not to obstruct the holes in the probe tubing as this will adversely
affect the sensor’s ability to sense humidity.
Note: The E-2D/5D/16D must be running firmware version
2.18 or later to support this sensor.

humidity ±4% RH (30°C). It includes two touch-sensitive buttons. One to control the LCD display illumination, and the other to
cycle the display mode between temperature in degrees Fahrenheit, temperature in degrees Celsius, and percentage of humidity.
The E-STHS-LCDW includes slots on the back for hidden mounting hardware and two brackets for alternative mounting from the
sides.
To use the MODE button, touch and release to cycle the display from Degrees F. to Degrees C, and to percentage of Humidity,
and once again to return to Degrees F. The display will hold the mode set, each time, until MODE is touched again.
To use the LIGHT button, touch to illuminate the display for 5 seconds. To keep the display illuminated, touch and hold the
LIGHT button for at least 6 seconds. Touch and release again to have illumination stop after 5 more seconds.

To mount the sensor, use the hardware provided to secure the sensor to the wall (see pages 2- 3). Once it is mounted, connect
a CATx cable between the RJ45 connector and the ENVIROMUX monitoring system.

NTI ENVIROMUX TEMPERATURE/HUMIDITY SENSOR ATTACHMENT
The cable from the ENVIROMUX will attach to the sensor at the RJ45 port on the bottom of the E-STHS-LCDW.
The E-STHS-LCDW will be powered by the ENVIROMUX Monitoring System through the CATx cable. We
recommend using CAT5/5e/6/6a cable (minimum 24 AWG) up to 150 ft (45.7 m) long.
Note: If a longer cable is used (up to 1000ft), the MODE button will not work when the display is illuminated by pressing
the LIGHT button.
Note: The CATx cable from the E-STHS-LCDW to the
E-xD cannot exceed 150ft.
If longer than 150 foot cable is used, the MODE
button will not function when the backlighting is ON

Cable Restraint Assembly Procedure
The E-STS-O Outdoor Temperature Sensor includes a water-tight cable
restraint to be applied to the Cat5/5e/6/6a shielded cable to be used to connect the
sensor to an

1. Insert the seal ring into the housing.
2. Strip the CATx shielded cable jacket (6mm-7mm O.D.) approximately ½” and insert the cable through the sealing
nut, screw nut, and housing. (Note: Heat shrink tubing can be applied to cable to increase the O.D. of the CATx
cable to 6mm-7mm.)

3. Terminate the CATx shielded cable with an RJ45 connector.
4. Set the RJ45 connector into the housing such that the snap handle is in the notch.

Sensor Calibration
All temperature/humidity combination sensors and humidity-only sensors are factory-calibrated and are not designed to be
calibrated in the field. In the event recalibration of your sensor is desired, please contact NTI for an RMA to return your sensor.
Sensors within warranty will be recalibrated at no charge. Normal labor charges will apply to sensors out of warranty.
Power Consumption
All of our temperature and temperature/humidity sensors operate at 5VDC and dr aw between 10-56mA (the highest being the ESTHS-LCDW).
Accuracy
The reported accuracy of these sensors is based on an environment of moving air. In a stagnant air environment, the sensor
may read higher than actual temperature

RJ45 Sensor Cable
The CAT5 connection cable between the ENVIROMUX and connected external sensors is terminated with RJ45 connectors and
must be wired according to the EIA/TIA 568 B industry standard. Wiring is as per the table and drawing below. The sensors
that connect to “RJ45 Sensor” ports (E-16(U)/xD) are all designed to use cables wired to this standard.
