11. Synchronizing the receiver to the sensor signal:
In case the sensor signal is lost, press and hold the channel key for approximately 5 seconds and the receiver will
synchronize to all sensor signals. When the units are synchronized, the data will be received again and the receiver will
return to normal operation mode.
12. Resetting recorded data:
To reset the minimum and maximum records, press and hold the min/max key for 3 seconds. Doing this will reset all
minimum and maximum indoors and outdoor records to their current values.
13. Cleaning and Maintenance
•
Clean the housing and screen of the receiver only with a soft damp cloth. Do not use abrasives or solvents
•
Ensure the sensor is operating by checking the sensor’s LCD and change the batteries to all units on a regular basis
•
Do not immerse any of the units in water
•
If you have damaged this product, do not attempt to make any repairs. Please take this unit to a qualified technician or
call La Crosse Technology Technical Support for assistance.
14. Problems & Solutions:
Problems Solutions
No outdoor data is displayed on
the receiver LCD
•
Check the batteries are correctly inserted into the sensor(s) and the data is
displayed on the sensor’s LCD
•
Reduce distance between receiver and sensor(s) until the signal is received
High shielding materials
between the units (thick walls,
steel, concrete, isolating
aluminum foil and etc.)
•
Find a different location for sensors and/or receiver
•
The transmission distance under optimum conditions is 80 feet. Although the
signal may travel through solid surfaces or objects avoid possible interfering
sources where possible
Interference from other sources
(e.g. wireless radio, headset,
speaker, etc. operating on the
same frequency)
•
Find a different location for the sensors and/or base station.
•
Using electrical other devices operating on 433MHz signal can also cause
interference with reception. Quite frequently interferences are of a temporary
nature. If there are wireless headsets, remote babysitters or other devices
operating on 433MHz in your house or in the vicinity, their switch-on time is mostly
limited. Furthermore most of these devices allow the setting to an interference-
free frequency.
Loss of transmission signal from
the sensor to the receiver
•
Press and hold the channel key for 5 seconds to synchronize the receiver to the
sensor again. If there still is no signal, then change the sensor batteries and
synchronize the units again or relocate the sensor until the signal is received.
Poor contrast LCD
•
Check and adjust the LCD contrast setting on the receiver
No reception or low batteries in
sensors or receiver.
•
Check the low battery indicator on the receiver LCD and change batteries if
required
Data shown on the sensor’s
LCD is different to the data
shown on the receiver’s LCD
•
Data shown on the sensor(s) LCD may not always correspond to that shown on
the receiver because the data displayed on the sensor will be the most recent
data measurement and needs to be transmitted to the receiver for updating.
