FCC Statement X-320M™ User's Manual
FCC Statement
This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the following two conditions:
- This device may not cause harmful interference.
- This device must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired
operation.
Warning
This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device,
pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection. This
equipment generates, uses and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in
accordance with the instructions, may cause interference to radio communications. There is no
guarantee, however, that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does
cause harmful interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by turning the
equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the
following measures:
- Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
- Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.
- Connect the equipment into a relay on a circuit different from where the receiver is connected.
- Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.
Notice
Changes or modification not expressly approved by the party responsible for compliance could void the
user’s authority to operate the equipment.

X-320M™ User's Manual Installation Guidelines (Read Before Installing)
Installation Guidelines Read Before Installing)
- This unit must be installed by qualified personnel.
- This unit must not be installed directly outdoors.
- This unit must not be used for medical, life saving purposes, or for any purpose where its failure
could cause serious injury or the loss of life.
- This unit must not be used in any way where its function or failure could cause significant loss or
property damage.
Security Notes
X-320M™ does not employ a general purpose computer operating system and does not have features
such as telnet, FTP, SSH, nor uncontrolled open ports. This means it is not possible for someone to
‘break in’ to X-320M™ and access other devices on your local network. The simplicity of X-320M™
makes it an inherently secure device. evertheless, as with any device installed on a network,
appropriate security precautions should be observed.
If X-320M™ is installed on the Internet, it is recommended that passwords be enabled for the Control
Page. Passwords should be at least 8 characters in length and use a combination of upper and lower
case letters and numbers. For additional security, a firewall may be used to limit access to selected IP
addresses. Another option may be to set up a Virtual Private etwork (VP ) between the network where
X-320M™ resides and the client machine (web browser, another, ControlByWeb™ product, etc.).
Final Installation Notes
This ControlByWeb™ product supports connection to 10 Mbps and 100 Mbps networks. Although 100
Mbps networks are faster, the amount of data transferred to and from this device is very minimal and
little, if any, performance increase will be gained by setting it to 100 Mbps. There are advantages,
however, to operate this device at 10 Mbps. At 10 Mbps, less power is required, the unit runs cooler, and
the lifetime of the product will be extended.
Any changes to the Ethernet settings will require a removing and re-applying power to X-320M™.

Introduction X-320M™ User's Manual
Section 1: Introduction
X-320M™ contains a unique combination of dedicated meteorological instrument functions as well as
general purpose control capability in a compact, cost-effective package. Like all ControlbyWeb products,
X-320MTM is designed to operate through a web browser; no driver required, no subscription, no remote
server, no script programming.
A variety of weather sensors can be leveraged by X-320MTM for casual or scientific purposes. A list of
compatible sensors is available from Xytronix Research and Design, Inc.
For those using X-320MTM with the Davis Instruments Integrated Sensor Suite (ISS), an adapter kit is
available which facilitates connections to the Davis sensors and enables the Davis temperature and
humidity sensors so they can be used by X-320TM.
X-320MTM comes pre-installed with a weather station interface. Once the desired instruments are
connected and basic network parameters are configured, the users can immediately see a user-friendly
weather station on any HTML 5 browser.

Figure 1.1a - Example Meteorological Station Setup

X-320M™ User's Manual Introduction
With proper configuration of Ethernet gateways, X-320MTM can be viewed through an Internet connection
at remote locations.
In addition to standard weather information, users can leverage the sophistication of X-320MTM for some
of the following functions:
- Data logging.
- Email or SMS text alerts on exception conditions, such as
freezing temperature.
- Trigger alarms using remote relays on other
ControlByWeb products based on weather conditions,
such as high wind.
- Disable irrigation system with high wind or rain.
- Expand X-320M with remote analog input capability
allowing instruments to be located elsewhere on the
network.
- Password-protected interface.
- Automatic time synchronization through TP service.
- Using the Remote Services interface, data from multiple
X-320s and other ControlByWeb products can be
aggregated under a common server.

Introduction X-320M™ User's Manual
1.1 X-320M™ Features
Frequency Input 1)
130 kHz maximum input, 0-5 V.
Wind sensors such as the RM Young 5103 use a frequency signal that is proportional to the wind
speed.
Analog Input 4)
24-bit analog measurements from 0-5 VDC.
Common analog sensors include wind vane, pyranometer, barometric pressure, humidity, and
temperature.
Also configurable as “digital” inputs with programmable switching thresholds for use with such things
as lightning detectors.
Digital I/O 2)
Programmable as outputs or inputs with selectable pull-up and pull-down resistors on inputs.
Pulse counter and pulse rate, 250 Hz max.
Inputs are compatible with switch-type wind speed sensors, and tipping bucket rain sensors.
Outputs can be used for irrigation and pump control.
Remote Relays 2)
Control relays on other ControlByWeb products based on input conditions. Useful for remote control
of alarms, irrigation systems, or equipment protection applications, such as cutting power during
lightning activity or turning on heating equipment in freezing conditions.
Remote Analog 4)
Expand sensor capability with up to 4 analog inputs from another device such as an X-320™ or
Analog Module.
Temperature or Humidity Digital Sensor Inputs 6)
Monitor any combination of temperature or humidity sensors up to 600 ft away. Wall mount and
sealed sensor probes are available for use with indoor and soil temperature applications.
Real-time Clock
Manual or TP capability.
Logging
Configurable logging for attached meteorological sensors.
System logging of device operating parameters and events, such as power reset and TP requests.
Email Notification
Send email alerts based on any sensor conditions, such as high wind, low temperature, or lightning.
