LTV-WL1: 2 “AA” batteries

SETUP AND MOUNTING
SETUP: HOW DO I SETUP MY STATION?
Your station is a fully functional standalone station.
1.
Insert batteries into the LTV-TH2i & LTV-WL1 sensors.
2.
Install 5 volt power cord into outlet, and into the station. Remove the insulation tab from the
CR2032 battery in your station.
3.
Let sensor and station sit within 10 feet of each other for several minutes to lock the sensor
signal to the display.
Once the sensor is connected, you can choose to connect to the La Crosse View™ app or
continue to use as a standalone station. You can always connect later if you choose.
MOUNTING: WHERE DO I MOUNT/POSITION MY SENSORS?
LTV-TH2i:
1.
Use the hole at the top to hang your sensor from the back using a nail. Or, insert one
mounting screw through the front of your sensor.
2.
Mount your sensor on a north-facing wall or in any shaded area. Under an eave or deck rail
is preferred to avoid inaccurate readings from the sun.
3.
The maximum wireless transmission range to the weather station is up to 400 feet (121
meters) in open air, not including walls or floors.
4.
Be sure your sensor is mounted vertically, to allow moisture to drain out properly.
Note: Watch sensor mounting video:

LTV-WL1:
•
The sensor will work best when simply placed on a floor. It will begin to detect water at 0.031
inches (0.787mm).
o
If sensor is placed vertically (Ex: hung inside a sump pump) the depth of the water needs to
be at least 0.25 inches (6.35mm) high to trigger the sensor.
Note: The Water Leak sensor will show in the Extra Sensor area.
IMPORTANT:
The metal contacts on the sensor should not be in contact with other metal. This
will cause false WET readings and may damage the sensor.
