CHECKING FOR 433MHz RECEPTION. La Crosse Technology WS-9031U

TO EXIT THE MANUAL SETTING MODE

To exit the manual setting mode anytime during the manual setting modes, press the SNOOZE key anytime or wait for automatic timeout. The mode will return to normal time display.

BACK-LIGHT

The back-light is automatically switched ON when any keys are pressed. The back-light will be switched on for approximately 10 seconds before automatically switching OFF. However, if the SNOOZE key is pressed and held down, then back-light will remain ON constantly until the key is released.

ABOUT THE OUTDOOR THERMO-HYGRO TRANSMITTER

The range of the Thermo-hygro Transmitter may be affected by the temperature. At cold temperatures the transmitting distance may be decreased. Please bear this in mind when positioning the transmitter. Also the batteries may be reduced in power.

CHECKING FOR 433MHz RECEPTION

If the outdoor temperature and humidity data is not being received within three minutes after setting up (the display shows “- -. - °F” and “- -%” on the outdoor section of the Weather Projection Station after 3 attempts during normal operation), please check the following points:

1.

2.

The distance of the Weather Projection Station or transmitter should be at least 6 feet (2 meters) away from any interfering sources such as computer monitors or TV sets.

Avoid placing the Thermo-hygro transmitter onto or in the immediate proximity of metal window frames.

3. Using other electrical products such as headphones or speakers operating on the 433MHz-signal frequency may prevent correct signal transmission or reception. Neighbors using electrical devices operating on the 433MHz-signal frequency can also cause interference.

Note:

When the 433 MHz signal is received correctly, do not re-open the battery cover of either the transmitter or Weather Projection Station, as the batteries may spring free from the contacts and force a false reset. Should this happen accidentally then reset all units (see

“Setting up”

above) otherwise transmission problems may occur.

The transmission range is around 65-82 feet (20-25 meters) from the transmitter to the Weather Projection Station (in open space). However, this depends on the surrounding environment and interference levels. If no reception is possible despite the observation of these factors, all system units have to be reset (see

“Setting up”

above).

POSITIONING THE THERMO-HYGRO TRANSMITTER:

Each transmitter is supplied with 2 wall mounting screws and plastic anchors.

To wall mount simply:

1. Secure the wall base onto a desired wall using the screws and plastic anchors.

2. Insert the transmitter to the wall base.

Note:

Before permanently fixing the transmitter wall base, pace all units in the desired locations to check that the outdoor temperature and humidity readings are receivable. In event that the signal is not received, relocate the transmitters or move them slightly as this may help the signal reception.

CARE AND MAINTENANCE:

•

Extreme temperatures, vibration and shock should be avoided as these may cause damage to the units and give inaccurate forecasts and

• readings.

When cleaning the display and casings, use a soft damp cloth only. Do not use solvents or scouring agents as they may mark the LCD and casings.

•

•

•

•

Do not submerge the units in water.

Immediately remove all low powered batteries to avoid leakage and damage. Replace only with new batteries of the recommended type.

Do make any repair attempts to the units. Return it to their original point of purchase for repair by a qualified engineer. Opening and tampering with the units may invalidate their guarantee.

Do not expose the units to extreme and sudden temperature changes, this may lead to rapid changes in forecasts and readings and thereby reduce their accuracy.
