BATTERIES

Half of all warranty issues can be resolved with fresh batteries of the appropriate

voltage.

We suggest name brand alkaline batteries.

Use batteries dated at least six years in advance of the current year. Batteries

dated earlier than six years from now may still work, but may be unstable in

performance.

Alkaline batteries manufactured this year will have an expiration date 10 years

in the future. Battery technology has improved and batteries will maintain

voltage longer in storage. However, the environment the batteries reside in for

the 10 years can deplete the power.

Good name brand alkaline batteries make less noise, which reduces the chance

of RF (radio frequency) interference from the battery compartment. A minimum

voltage of 1.48V for each battery is necessary for proper performance.

WEATHER STATION FACTORY RESTART

The factory reset will return the wind speed station to its default settings. This will

clear all previous recorded history, so you may want to write down data before

taking this step.

1. Hold down both the LIGHT and ALERTS button together for 5 second. This will

clear all recorded weather data and reset the station's settings back to default

2. The weather station will fully populate, clear all records, then return to a normal

display and search for outdoor sensors.

3. While searching for the outdoor sensors the Wind Speed, and Outdoor

4. Temperature/Humidity will show dashes.

5. Once connected to the outdoor sensors (allow 3 minutes) the Wind Speed, and

6. Temperature/Humidity will show current readings.

7. In the absence of wind, this reading will show 0.00.

Dashes = Not connected to sensor

Zero or current readings = Connected to sensor.

BATTERY CHANGE

THERMOHYGRO SENSOR

DASHES SHOWN FOR OUTDOOR TEMPERATURE/HUMIDITY

Dashes means there is lost connection between the display and the outdoor

sensor.

Batteries are the most common problem.

Distance/Resistance can cause loss of sensor signal. Avoid having more than

one wall, window, tree etc., between the display and the sensor. UV coated

windows may actually reflect the signal. Stucco walls will absorb the signal.

It may be helpful to orient the weather 90 degrees towards the sensor for better

reception.

Sensors operate best when elevated at least 6 feet.

Remove the batteries from the sensor for 2 minutes. Replace the batteries in the

Thermohygro sensor and after 5 minutes press and hold the TEMP button for 5

seconds. Wait 10 minutes. If the unit does not receive a reading from all the

sensors, please try the factory reset.

INACCURATE OUTDOOR TEMPERATURE/HUMIDITY

The thermo-hygro sensor reads the environment. When the sensor reads high

during the day but not at night it is a mounting problem.

Side-by-side test: Bring the thermo-hygro sensor in the house and place it

next to the Wind speed station for 2 hours.

Compare indoor and outdoor temperature. The temperatures should be within 4

degrees to be within tolerance. The humidity should be within 14% to be within

tolerance.

If the sensor reads correctly when next to the wind speed station then try a

different location outside.

Look for heat sources such as sunlight, door or window frames, or reflected

heat.

OUTDOOR READINGS ARE STUCK OR OFL

Check batteries.Overpowered or underpowered batteries can cause this

reading.

Replace sensor.

INTERMITTENT SENSOR READINGS

RF (radio frequency) communication may come and go occasionally. This can be

normal in some environments (e.g. moister climates).

If a sensor goes out, please wait 2-4 hours for it to reconnect on its own. Please

be patience – these stations can reconnect on, after many hours out.

RF (radio frequency) communication is not always 100% on.

Certain temporary conditions can cause it to go out for a time (e.g. 100%

humidity).

If a miss happens:

Hold the TEMP button for 5 seconds to search for sensor.

La Crosse Technology, Ltd. Page 5

The units try for 20 minutes to reconnect. After 20 minutes, the sensor stops

trying for an hour (to preserve battery life). After the 1-hour break, the sensor

will start another 20-minute re-connect cycle.

Distance/Resistance can cause loss of sensor signal. Avoid having more than

one wall, window, tree etc., between the display and the sensor. UV coated

windows may actually reflect the signal. Stucco walls will absorb the signal.

Check batteries. This is our primary warranty issue.

SENSOR DRAINS BATTERIES QUICKLY

Test a new set of alkaline batteries. Write down the date of installation and the

voltage of the batteries.

When the batteries fail, please note the date and voltage again. This is helpful in

determining the problem.

Check the distance and resistance between the sensor and Wind speed station.

Sensors at the end of the range may work while batteries are fresh but not after

they drain a bit.

Check for leaking batteries, which may damage the sensor.

HUMIDITY SHOWS OFL BUT TEMPERATURE WORKS

The humidity low range is 10% RH. If your local humidity is below 10%, you

will see this reading.

Complete a restart with fresh batteries.

Replace the sensor.

FAHRENHEIT/CELSIUS

Enter the program menu to select in Fahrenheit (ºF) or Celsius (ºC).

WIND SPEED SENSOR

WIND CUPS SPINNING SLOW OR NOT SPINNING

Check for debris or ice in cups.

Check mounting location. Look for obstructions that prevent the wind from

reaching the sensor.

In most cases, the wind sensor needs to be 4-6ft above the highest point on the

roof in order to clear nearby obstructions and read accurately.

A 50-foot clearance in all directions is best.

Push down firmly on the center of the cups to reseat them.

Cups are replaceable.

REPLACE WIND CUPS

Replace wind cups:

1. Loosen the screw on side of cups

2. Remove cups

3. Install new cups

4. Tighten screw

Note: The screw in the wind cups will fit on the flat side of the metal stem on the

sensor.

WIND SPEED IS 0.00

Check that the wind cups attach to the sensor. Occasionally they can come off.

Check that the cups seat properly by pushing on the center of the cups.

Check that the cups spin freely.

WIND SPEED IS INACCURATE

Check the unit of measure (MPH, KM/H or M/S).

Check to see if the Wind speed station receives the same repetitive wind speed

recording from the sensor multiple times.

Confirm the direction is working correctly.

Check that the cups turn freely.

Check for obstructions that prevent clear wind flow to the cups.

Check mounting. In most cases, the wind sensor needs to be 6 feet or more

above the highest point on the roof in order to clear nearby obstructions and

read accurately. A 50-foot clearance in all directions is best.

It is helpful to send pictures of the sensor mounting, if you need to contact

customer support.

La Crosse Technology, Ltd. Page 7

Check that your batteries are fresh in the thermo-hygro sensor and the Wind

speed station.

•The maximum wireless transmission range to the weather station is over 330

feet

•(100 meters) in open air, not including walls or floors.

•Mount the sensor vertically, to allow moisture to drain out properly.

•http://bit.ly/TH_SensorMounting

DISTANCE/RESISTANCE/INTERFERENCE

Distance:

The maximum transmitting range in open air is over 330 feet (100 meters)

between the sensors and the Wind speed station.

Consider what is in the signal path between the Wind speed station and the

sensors.

Consider the distance the Wind speed station is from other electronics in the

home.

Resistance:

Obstacles such as walls, windows, stucco, concrete, and large metal objects can

reduce the range.

When considering the distance between the sensor and the Wind speed station

(330 feet, 100 meters open air) cut that distance in half for each wall, window,

tree, bush or other obstruction in the signal path.

Closer is better.

La Crosse Technology, Ltd. Page 10

Do not mount the sensors on a metal fence. This significantly reduces the

effective range.

Interference:

Consider items in the signal path between the sensors and the station.

Simple relocation of the sensors or the Wind speed station may correct an

interference issue.

Windows can reflect the radio signal.

Metal will absorb the RF (radio frequency) signal.

Stucco held to the wall by a metal mesh will cause interference.

Transmitting antennas from: ham radios, emergency dispatch centers, airports,

military bases, etc. may cause interference.

Electrical wires, utilities, cables, etc. may create interference if too close.

Vegetation is full of moisture and reduces signal.

Dirt: Receiving a signal through a hill is difficult.
