temperature are displayed. The minimum records will display for 30
seconds before returning to the normal display mode.
2. Press
the
IN
button again (once while “MIN” is still displayed, twice
otherwise). “MAX” appears above the indoor temperature and the LCD
will flash, indicating that the maximum temperature and humidity, and
the time and date of occurrence of the temperature are displayed.
3.
While “MAX” is still displayed press the
IN
button again to return to the
current data display. Or you can wait 30 seconds, during either the
minimum or the maximum readings, and the unit will automatically
return to current data readings.

minimum records will display for 30 seconds before returning to the
normal display mode.
2. Press
the
OUT
button again (once while “MIN” is still displayed, twice
otherwise). “MAX” appears above the outdoor temperature and the
LCD will flash, indicating that the maximum temperature and the time
and date of occurrence are displayed.
3.
While “MAX” is still displayed press the
OUT
button again to return to
the current data display. Or you can wait 30 seconds, during either the
minimum or the maximum readings, and the unit will automatically
return to current data readings.
C.
RESETTING THE MIMIMUM AND MAXIMUM RECORDS
1.
All the Indoor records (minimum and maximum) will be reset after the
IN
button is pressed and held for 5 seconds.
2.
All the Outdoor records (minimum and maximum) will be reset after the
OUT
button is pressed and held for 5 seconds.
V. ADDING REMOTE TEMPERATURE SENSORS (OPTIONAL)
14
The WS-9153U-IT is able to receive signals from 2 additional temperature sensors.
The following are instructions for the set-up of temperature sensor units with the WS-
9153U-IT. These extra sensors can be purchased through the same dealer as this
unit.
1.
Remove all the batteries from the receiver and sensor(s) and wait 60 seconds.
During these 60 seconds, press any button 20 times to discharge any excess
power.
2.
Insert the batteries to the first temperature sensor.
3.
Within 30 seconds of powering up the first sensor, insert the batteries to the
Weather Station. Once the batteries are in place, all segments of the LCD will
light up briefly. Following the indoor temperature and humidity, time as 12:00,
and calendar will be displayed. If they are not shown in LCD after 60 seconds,
remove the batteries and wait for at least 60 seconds before reinserting them.
4.
The outdoor temperature from the first sensor (channel 1) should then be
displayed on the Weather Station. If this does not happen and the signal
reception icon is not shown, after 2 minutes, the batteries will need to be
removed from both units and reset from step 1.
5.
Insert the batteries to the second sensor as soon as the outdoor temperature
readings from the first sensor are displayed on the Weather station.
NOTE: You must insert the batteries into the second sensor within 10
seconds of reception of the first sensor.
6.
The outdoor temperature from the second sensor and the "channel 2" icon
should then be displayed on the Weather Station. If this does not happen after 2
minute, the batteries will need to be removed from all the units and reset from
step 1.
7.
Insert the batteries to the third sensor as soon as the "channel 2" icon and
outdoor data are displayed on the Weather Station. Then within 2 minutes, the
channel 3 outdoor data from the third sensor will be displayed and the channel
icon will shift back to "1" once the third sensor is successfully received. If this is
not happen, user shall restart the setting up from step 1.
NOTE: You must insert the batteries into the third sensor within 10
seconds of reception of the second sensor.
IMPORTANT: Transmission problems will arise if the setting for multiple
sensors is not followed as described above. Should transmission problems
occur, it is necessary to remove the batteries from all units and start again
the set-up from step 1.
VI. VIEWING AND OPERATING WITH MULTIPLE REMOTE TEMPERATURE
SENSOR UNITS
1.
To view the temperature of a different remote temperature sensor unit,
press and release the
CH
button. A shift from one “boxed” number to the
next should be observed in the OUTDOOR LCD.
2.
To view the Minimum/Maximum temperature: first select which remote
temperature sensor to read data from (indicated by the “boxed” number),
then press the
OUT
button. Pressing this button once will display the
minimum temperature, and the date and time the data was recorded.
15
Pressing this button a second time (while “MIN” is still displayed, otherwise
press the button twice) will display the same data for the maximum
recordings.
6.
To reset the Minimum/Maximum readings, it is necessary to select which
remote temperature sensor you wish to reset. Press and hold the
OUT
button for 5 seconds, the records for the selected remote temperature
sensor unit will be reset.
MOUNTING
Note:
Before permanently mounting ensure that the Wireless Weather Station is able
to receive WWVB signals from the desired location. Also, extreme and sudden
changes in temperature will decrease the accuracy of the Wireless Weather Station,
and changes in elevation will result with inaccurate weather forecasting for the next 12
to 24 hours. These changes will require a 12 to 24 hour wait before obtaining reliable
data. To achieve a true temperature reading, avoid mounting where direct sunlight can
reach the remote temperature sensor or Wireless Weather Station. While the remote
temperature sensor is weather proof, avoid submersion in water or snow. We
recommend that you mount the remote temperature sensor on an outside North-facing
wall. The sending range is 330ft—obstacles such as walls, concrete, and large metal
objects can reduce the range. Place both units in their desired location, and wait
approximately 15 minutes before permanently mounting to ensure that there is proper
reception. The Wireless Weather Station should display a temperature in the
OUTDOOR LCD within 4 minutes of setting up.
I. THE REMOTE TEMPERATURE SENSOR
The remote temperature sensor can be mounted in two ways:
•
with the use of screws, or
•
using the adhesive tape.
A. MOUNTING WITH SCREWS
1) Remove the mounting bracket from the remote temperature
sensor.
2) Place the mounting bracket over the desired location.
3) Through the three screw holes of the bracket, mark the
mounting surface with a pencil.
4) Screw mounting bracket onto the mounting surface. Ensure
that the screws are flush with the bracket.
5) Insert the remote temperature sensor into the bracket.
B. MOUNTING WITH ADHESIVE TAPE
1) With a nonabrasive solution, clean and dry the back of the
mounting bracket and the mounting surface to ensure a
secure hold. The mounting surface should be smooth and
flat.
2) Remove the protective strip from one side of the tape.
3) Adhere the tape to the designated area on the back of the
mounting bracket.
4) Remove the protective strip from the other side of the tape.
16
5) Position the remote temperature sensor in the desired
location, ensuring that the Wireless Weather Station can
receive the signal.
Note:
The adhesive tape is not intended to be used as a permanent mounting
solution. Only use the adhesive tape while you are positioning the Weather Station
and thermo-hygro sensor.
Note:
Mounting with adhesive tape is not recommended as a permanent mounting solution.
Only use the adhesive tape during set-up process.
II. THE WIRELESS WEATHER STATION
The Wireless Weather Station can be mounted in two ways:
with the table stand or,
on the wall with the use of a wall hanging screw (not included).
A. USING THE TABLE STAND
The Wireless Weather Station comes with the table stand
already mounted. If you wish to use the table-stand all that is
required is to place the Wireless Weather Station in an
appropriate location.
B. WALL MOUNTING
1) Remove the table-stand. To do this, pull down on the stand
from the rear and rotate forward.
2) Fix a screw (not included) into the desired wall, leaving
approximately 3/16 of an inch (5mm) extended from the wall.
3) Place the Wireless Weather Station onto the screw using the
hanging hole on the backside.
4) Gently pull the Wireless Weather Station down to lock the
screw into place.
TROUBLESHOOTING
NOTE: For problems not solved, please contact La Crosse Technology.
Problem:
No reception of WWVB time signal.
Solution:
1) Wait overnight for signal.
2) Be sure Weather Station is at least 6 feet from any electrical devices, such as
televisions, computers, or other radio-controlled clocks.
3) Remove batteries for five minutes, reinsert and leave the unit alone overnight
without pressing buttons.
4) If there are still problems, contact La Crosse Technology
