IMPORTANT NOTES ON SETUP AND OPERATION
•
Important Notes on set-up and operation the Solar Temperature
Transmitter should be placed in a dry area.
•
The Solar Temperature Transmitter consumes solar power and internal
rechargeable batteries.
•
Fog and mist will not harm your but direct rain must be avoided.
•
The Solar Temperature Transmitter has a range of 330 feet (100 m). Keep
in mind that the 330 feet is in open air with no obstructions and that radio
waves DO NOT curve around objects. Actual transmission range will vary
depending on what is in the path of the signal. Each obstruction (roof,
walls, floors, ceilings, thick trees, etc.) will effectively cut signal range in
half.
MOUNTING
THE TEMPERATURE TRANSMITTER
The Solar Temperature Transmitter can be mounted onto a wall with the use of
screws
MOUNTING WITH SCREWS
1.
Remove the mounting bracket from the Solar
Temperature Transmitter.
2.
Place the mounting bracket over the desired location.
3.
Through the two screw holes of the bracket, mark the
mounting surface with a pencil.
4.
Screw mounting bracket onto the mounting surface.
Ensure that the screws are tight against the bracket.
5.
Insert the Solar Temperature Transmitter into the
bracket.
Example: A wireless Weather/ Temperature Station with a 330 feet (100
m) range is mounted on an interior wall, so that the signal has to pass
through one interior wall, one exterior wall, and across the 10 feet (3 m)
width of the room between the 2 walls. The first wall will reduce the range
to 165 feet (50 m), and the second wall will reduce the range to 87 feet
(26.5 m). Factoring in the 10 foot room, this leaves a maximum of 77 feet
(23.5 m) of remaining signal range.
Table standing or others
With the mounting bracket installed at the bottom or the top of
the transmitter, user can place it on any flat surface.
This allowance is typically enough for a frame wall with non-metallic siding;
however certain materials can reduce range even further. Metal siding,
stucco, and some types of glass can reduce signal range by as much as ¾
or more, compared to the ½ reduction typical of most obstructions. It is
possible to receive a signal through these materials, however maximum
range will be much less due to their tendency to absorb or reflect a much
larger portion of the sensor’s signal.

To start the operation, first, press the reset button on the Solar
Temperature Transmitter. Normally, all segments of the LCD will light up
briefly. The code number and the security code (for example, “20”) will be
displayed sequentially. Next, the battery voltage will be shown on the
LCD, it should be higher than 2.4V in order to maintain the normal
operation. The instant temperature can be read on the transmitter, and
the transmitter starts the transmission of signal.
Within 2 minutes of the start up of transmitter, insert the batteries to the
Temperature Station. Once the batteries of the Temperature Station are
in place, all segments of the Temperature Station’s LCD will light up
briefly. The indoor data will be first displayed on the Temperature Station,
and then the outdoor data. Following the indoor temperature and the time
as 12:00 will be displayed on the Temperature Station. If they are not
shown in the LCD of Temperature Station after 30 seconds, user should
reinstall the batteries of the Temperature Station again. Once the indoor
data is displayed user may proceed to the next step for receiving outdoor
data.
After the Temperature station is powered up, it will start receiving outdoor
data signal from the Solar Temperature Transmitter. During the process,
the signal reception and re-synchronization process will try the following
frequencies: 903MHz, 915MHz and 927MHz. If this does not happen after
5 minutes, the batteries of the Temperature Station should be removed
and reset the Solar Temperature Transmitter from step 1.
In order to ensure better reception and transmission, this should under
good conditions be a distance no more than 330 feet (100 meters)
between the final position of the Temperature Station and the Solar
Temperature Transmitter.
Note: Before permanently fixing the remote temperature sensor
wall base, place all units in the desired locations to check
that the outdoor temperature readings are receivable. In
event that the signal is not received, relocate the remote
temperature sensor or move them slightly as this may
help the signal reception.
MAINTENANCE AND CARE
The Solar Temperature Transmitter measures and transmits signal about
every 8 seconds when its battery voltage is higher than 2.4V.
After the batteries of Temperature Station have been installed, the
Temperature Station will search for the signal of Solar Temperature
Transmitter for duration of few minutes. If the connection process is failed,
user shall make sure the units are within range of each other, or restart the
transmitter starts up procedure again.
• Extreme temperatures, vibration, and shock should be avoided to prevent
damage to the units.
• Clean displays and units with a soft, damp cloth. Do not use solvents or
scouring agents; they may mark the displays and casings.
• Do not submerge in water.
• Immediately remove all low powered batteries to avoid leakage and damage.
• Opening the casings invalidates the warranty. Do not try to repair the unit.
Contact La Crosse Technology for repairs.
IDLE MODE
This mode aims to reduce power consumption of the transmitter. Under this
mode, the transmitter turns off LCD, stops the transmission of signal, checks the
battery voltage and detects the solar cell condition. The IDLE mode happens:
•
if the battery voltage is lower than 2.4V, “LO” will be displayed on the LCD
for a short while (around 2 seconds) before the transmitter enters into IDLE
mode.

Note: Detailed set-up procedures of the Temperature Station and the Solar
Temperature Transmitter refer to the main operation manual of
Temperature Station.

Note: The transmitter will check and charge up the internal rechargeable battery
automatically, when it detects the battery voltage rises up to 2.5V, the
LCD turns on and the transmission of signal starts again.

STOP MODE
It is the most energy saving mode. Under this mode, the transmitter turns off
LCD, no transmission of signal and no checking battery voltage. The transmitter
shows “StP” on the LCD for a short while (around 2 seconds) before it enters this
mode. The STOP mode happens:
•
if the user covers the solar cell for 10 seconds and presses the reset
button.
•
if the transmitter is placed in the dark environment for 24 hours.
