LA CROSSE VIEW

Checking Your Station’s Wi-Fi Status

Press the

 SET 

button on the top of the station to view your Wi-Fi Status.

Having Trouble Connecting to Wi-Fi?

The app should guide you through the best method for your Wi-Fi network and router. However, 

if you have trouble connecting, please go to:

 

bit.ly/wifi_questions

 

or scan the QR code. This will 

explain additional connectivity options, including connecting by WPS or contacting our technical 

support team for further assistance.

ALL OK CONNECTED

Your station is connected to your 

Wi-Fi network and its data should 

be available on the station and 

in the app.

SEE APP TO CONNECT

Check the app for notifications.

NO WEATHER SERVICE

Your Internet weather and time 

services are not connecting. 

These should resolve on their 

own, please be patient.

LOST WIFI

Check your router and network 

connections.

The La Crosse View app is required to connect the station to your Wi-Fi network. Download, install, 

and log into your La Crosse View account first.

New User Initial Setup:

 

When first setting up your 

station, the app will lead you through a series of 

instructions to help get your station added into your 

account and connected to your home Wi-Fi network.

Manually Add & Connect Display:

 

After the initial walkthrough, 

stations can be added and connected via the Devices tab in the 

app’s main menu. Simply tap the 

Add Device

 or 

+

 button at the 

bottom of the Devices page in the app. 

1.

Follow the initial app instructions or manually add the display into your account. 

2.

Next, the app will prompt you to use your phone to scan the device ID barcode located on the back of 

the station. Please note, adding a device to your account and connecting it to Wi-Fi are two different 

steps. You can complete either step separately if you have any trouble.
When connected, the station will beep, and time and forecast information should populate on the 

display. The      indicator will also become solid. 

3.

4.

This step is only required if you do not receive the Add Device 

notification within the app.

Prior to mounting/positioning your sensors, make sure your 
station is receiving sensor data.

Upon getting the station connected to your Wi-Fi network, the app will 

explain how your connected sensor should be brought in. Within the next 

15 minutes, you should receive an Add Device notification in your app. 

This is indicated by the Red Cloud and the numbers inside of it. Tap this 

icon to begin adding your sensor into the app.
