The SHT30 Combined Humidity and Temperature Sensor is an integral component of the PIERRE smart home system, delivering precise climate monitoring to ensure optimal comfort. This sensor measures both humidity and temperature, providing real-time data that enables automated adjustments to heating, cooling, and ventilation systems.
- By continuously detecting fluctuations in room climate, the SHT30 sensor plays a crucial role in maintaining a comfortable home environment. It communicates with the PIERRE controller via a wired setup, using a Cat.6 SFTP cable for reliable and accurate data transmission. For installations over distances greater than 15 meters, a differential module may be necessary to maintain data integrity. Proper wiring, particularly regarding polarity, is essential to avoid sensor damage and ensure accurate operation.
Integration with the PIERRE smart home system facilitates seamless automation of climate control. Once connected, the SHT30 sensor can be configured through the PIERRE Partner application, allowing it to interact with other smart devices in the system. This setup enables automated adjustments based on real-time temperature and humidity readings, leading to improved energy efficiency and enhanced comfort.
Overall, the SHT30 Combined Humidity and Temperature Sensor is essential for creating a responsive and efficient smart home environment, offering precise climate monitoring and automated control to keep the home at the ideal temperature and humidity levels.

What color mean what on Controller LED?
Green – Online:
The controller is online and connected to the network, functioning as expected.
Red – Offline:
The controller is offline, indicating a disconnection from the network or that there is no internet access.
Light Blue – AP Mode:
The controller is in Access Point (AP) Mode, meaning it is broadcasting its own network, allowing devices to connect directly to the controller for setup or configuration.
Dark Blue – AP Mode with Pierre Partner:
The controller is in AP Mode, and it is actively being managed through the Pierre Partner system. This mode is used for more advanced setup or partner-level configuration.
Purple – Searching for IP Address:
The controller is attempting to obtain an IP address from the router or network. It is searching for an internet connection.
Orange – Firmware Update:
The controller is in the process of downloading a firmware update, ensuring that the system stays up-to-date with the latest software and features.
These LED color indicators provide essential information about the controller’s current status, making it easy to monitor its connection, operation mode, and maintenance activities.
Has this Humidity and Temeprature sensor been added to the configuration?
If not: Add it in the Pierre Partner application.
Are cables GND, +5V, SDA, SCL properly connected?
If not: Pay attention to the polarity, if you reverse it, the sensor will be damaged. (Must be +5V)
Are the SCL and SDA checked?
If not: If it doesn't work, try swapping the SDA and SCL pins.
In which cases should Input and Output be added to the same Controller?
If one Input has influence on the Output they both should be added to the same Controller.
For example in situation when one Motion sensor triggers a Lamp they should be add to the same Controller for best performances.
Humidity sensor comes with a pre-installed cable. Can these also be connected from the junction box to the Pierre hub with UTP or shielded F/UTP cable?
Yes, sensors that come with their own cable can also be connected to the PIERRE system. You connect the sensor’s cable with UTP or S/FTP cables, using quick connectors (Wago) or soldering.
How should the sensors be wired?
Each sensor (motion, light, contact, etc.) should be individually wired to the PIERRE control cabinet in a star pattern.
