Remote Temperature Sensor
Compatible Remote sensors
The TX141TH-
B
v2 remote sensor comes packaged with this weather station.
The TX141TH-A, TX141TH-Av2 and TX141TH-B (433MHz) remote sensors are
compatible with this weather station.
Quick Connect
Explanation:
Use the quick connect for a weather station and remote 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 remote 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 remote temperature area will flash.
3.
Remove battery cover from the remote sensor and press and release the TX button to
send the signal.
4.
Wait for 2 minutes for the remote temperature to appear on the weather station.
If the above procedure does not work, please try the factory reset.
Remote Temperature Signal Strength
Explanation:
The weather station will search for the remote 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 Remote Temperature
Explanation:
Dashes mean the connection is lost between the weather station and the
remote sensor.
often resolve the connection.
can cause loss of connection between the remote sensor and the
weather station.
Turn the weather station 90 degrees towards the remote sensor to provide better
reception. This allows more antenna surface to face the remote sensor signal.
Power Requirements
2-AA
power the remote sensor.
We recommend Alkaline batteries for the remote sensor.
You may choose to use Lithium batteries for temperatures below -20°F/-28.8°C.
Inaccurate Remote Temperature Reading
Explanation:
High remote temperature readings are generally a location issue. Low remote
temperature readings are power related or a sensors going bad.
The remote sensor reads the environment where it is mounted. When mounted inside
the home, it will read inside temperature/humidity.
When the remote sensor reads high during the day, but not at night, it is a
positioning
problem.
Look for heat sources such as sunlight, door or window frames or reflected heat.
