S85807 www.lacrossetechnology.com/S85807 Page | 12 Mounting Instructions: TX233TH Temperature/Humidity Sensor Option 1: • Install one mounting screw into a wall. • Place the transmitter onto the screw. Option 2: • Insert the mounting screw through the front of the transmitter and into the wall. • Tighten the screw to snug (do not over tighten). • Mount the temperature/humidity sensor on a north-facing wall or in any well shaded location. Sun will make it read high. • Under an eave or deck rail is preferred. • Be sure the outdoor sensor is mounted vertically to drain moisture. • The maximum wireless transmission range to the weather station is over 330 feet (100 meters) in open air, not including walls or floors. TX233RW Multi-sensor • For most accurate wind speed and rainfall readings, mount the Multi-sensor in an open area clear for 50 feet in all directions. Bubble Level • Mount with the solar panel facing south so the wind direction is correct. See N, S, E W, embossed on the top of the sensor. • Use the bubble level on the top of the sensor to ensure it is level, for accurate rainfall readings. Page | 13 www.lacrossetechnology.com/S85807 S85807 • The maximum wireless transmission range to the station is over 330 feet (100 meters) in open air, not including walls or trees. • Mount sensor vertically. • Cups should be on the top of the sensor. • Attach to mounting surface with screws through the mounting bracket. • The sensor can be mounted from the bottom or from the side. Alternatively: • Insert your own mounting pole sensor. • Tighten screws • Mounting bracket would not be used. Replace Wind Cups: 1. 2. 3. 4. Loosen the screw on side of cups Remove cups Install new cups Tighten screw S85807 www.lacrossetechnology.com/S85807 Page | 14 Replace Directional Vane: 1. 2. 3. 4. Loosen the screw on side of vane Remove direction vane Install new vane Tighten screw Factory Restart: The factory reset will return the weather station to its default settings. This will clear all previous recorded history, so you may want to write down data before taking this step. 1. Hold the LIGHT and ALERTS buttons together for 5 seconds to reset the weather station, clear all records, and return all settings to default. 2. The weather station will fully populate, then return to a normal display and search for outdoor sensors. 3. While searching for the outdoor sensors the Wind Speed, Outdoor Temperature/Humidity and Rainfall totals will show dashes. 4. Once connected to the outdoor sensors (allow 3 minutes) the Wind Speed, Outdoor Temperature/Humidity, and Rainfall will show current readings.
