Press the TX button on the outdoor sensor to transmit the RF signal.  

8.

 

Keep the outdoor sensor 5-10 feet from the weather station. 

9.

 

When an RF connection is established, the temperature will appear on the station. Allow the 
outdoor sensor and weather station to sit together for 15 minutes to establish a strong 
connection.  

10.

 

Do not press buttons for 15 minutes. 
 

 

For optimum 433MHz transmission, place the outdoor sensor no more than 200 feet (60 
meters, open-air) from the weather station. 

 

See the section on 

mounting 

and 

distance/resistance/interference 

for details on mounting the 

outdoor sensor. 

 

Outdoor Temperature Sensor 

Compatible Outdoor sensors 

 

 

The TX141TH-

BCH

 outdoor sensor comes packaged with this weather station.  

 

This station can read up to three outdoor sensors. The TX141TH-BCH allows you to select 
channels to use this feature.  
 

Quick Connect 

 

Explanation:

 Use the quick connect for a weather station and outdoor sensor that has 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 TEMP button for 5 seconds. The outdoor temperature area will flash. 

3.

 

Remove the 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. 

 

Factory Restart: 

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 outdoor sensor 

for 3 minutes after batteries are installed or if you hold the TEMP button for 3 seconds. 
 

 

The antenna symbol will flash during reception. 

 

The temperature display will be dashed “---“. 

 

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 a 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.
