Projection Alarm Factory Restart
Explanation:
The factory restart returns the projection alarm and outdoor sensor to an “out-of-the-box”
state and often resolves an issue.
Factory Restart:
1. Remove all power (batteries and AC) from outdoor sensor and projection alarm.
2. Press one of the buttons on the projection alarm at least 20 times to clear all memory.
3. Verify that the projection alarm is blank before proceeding (some lines are painted on the screen and
will show with batteries out).
4.
Leave unpowered for 15 minutes
(very important).
5. Insert the AC cord into the wall outlet then into the projection alarm.
6. Insert fresh batteries into the outdoor sensor.
7. Press the TX button on the outdoor sensor to transmit RF signal.
8. Keep the outdoor sensor 5-10 feet from the projection alarm.
9. When RF connection is established, the temperature will appear on the station. Allow the outdoor
sensor and projection alarm 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 330 feet (100 meters,
open air) from the projection alarm.

Outdoor Temperature Sensor
Compatible Outdoor Sensors
The TX141-
B3,
TX141-B or TX141 outdoor sensor comes packaged with this projection alarm. These
sensors are
not
interchangeable. Be sure to check the model before ordering.
The TX141B
(all versions),
and TX141-A (433MHz) outdoor sensors are compatible with the
projection alarm sold with the TX141-Bv2 sensor.
Quick Connect
Explanation:
The quick connect is used for a projection alarm and outdoor sensor that have been
working but lost connection due to interference or low batteries. This is not a thorough factory reset.
1. Bring the outdoor sensor and projection alarm together inside and place the units 5-10 feet apart
with nothing between them.
2. Hold the
+/TEMP
button on the projection alarm. 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 projection alarm.
If the above procedure does not work, please try the factory reset.
