V. ADDING REMOTE TEMPERATURE SENSORS (OPTIONAL)
The WS-7168U is able to receive signals from 3 different remote
temperature sensors.
The remote temperature sensor model(s) that you
choose will come with their own set of instructions—follow these
instructions for a complete guide to setting up. Following are some brief
instructions for the basic set-up of remote temperature sensor units with the
WS-7168U. These extra sensors can be purchased through the same dealer
as this unit, or by contacting La Crosse Technology directly. A TX6U will
monitor temperature only, a TX3U will monitor temperature and display the
temperature on its LCD, and the TX3UP will monitor the temperature via a
probe for use in pools, spas, etc.
Note:
When setting up multiple units it is important to remove the batteries
from all existing units in operation, then to insert batteries first into all the
remote temperature sensor units, and in numeric sequence. Second install
batteries into the indoor weather station. Transmission problems will arise
if this is not done correctly and if the total time for set-up exceeds 6
minutes.
A. SET-UP OF MULTIPLE UNITS
1. It is necessary to remove the batteries from all units currently
in operation.
2. Remove the battery covers to all remote temperature sensor
units.
3. Place all remote temperature sensor units in a numeric
sequential order.
4. In sequential order, install batteries (follow the same battery
installation procedures seen in section I. A) of the Detailed
Set-Up Guide).
5. Install batteries into the indoor weather station.
6. Follow the Detailed Set-Up Guide for programming and
operating instructions.
