Outdoor Temperature Sensor
Compatible Outdoor sensors
The TX141TH-
Bv2
outdoor sensor comes packaged with this weather station.
The TX141TH-A, TX141TH-Av2 and TX141TH-B (433MHz) outdoor sensors are
compatible with this weather station.
Quick Connect
Explanation:
Use the quick connect for a weather station and outdoor sensor that have
been working but lost connection due to interference or low batteries. This is not the same
as a thorough factory reset.
1.
Bring the outdoor sensor and weather station together inside, and place the units 5-10
feet apart with nothing between them.
2.
Hold the HEAT/DEW button for 5 seconds. The outdoor temperature area will flash.
3.
Remove battery cover from the outdoor sensor and press and release the TX button to
send the signal.
4.
Wait for 2 minutes for the outdoor temperature to appear on the weather station.
If the above procedure does not work, please try the factory reset.
Outdoor Temperature Signal Strength
Explanation:
The weather station will search for the outdoor temperature/humidity sensor
for 3 minutes after installing batteries or after holding the HEAT/DEW button for 3 seconds.
The antenna symbol will flash during reception.
The temperature display will be dashes “---“.
If synchronization fails once, the antenna will lose one bar.
If synchronization fails twice, the antenna will lose two bars.
If RF (radio frequency) reception fails five times, the antenna symbol will show without
bars.
The antenna will show full display with successful RF (radio frequency) reception.
Dashes show for Outdoor Temperature
Explanation:
Dashes mean the connection is lost between the weather station and the
outdoor sensor.
often resolve the connection.
can cause loss of connection between the outdoor sensor and the
weather station.
Turn the weather station 90 degrees towards the outdoor sensor to provide better
reception. This allows more antenna surface to face the outdoor sensor signal.
Power Requirements
2-AA
power the outdoor sensor.
We recommend Alkaline batteries for the outdoor sensor.
You may choose to use Lithium batteries for temperatures below -20°F/-28.8°C.
Inaccurate Outdoor Temperature Reading
Explanation:
High outdoor temperature readings are generally a location issue. Low
outdoor temperature readings are power related or a sensors going bad.
