The "+" markings on the batteries must lineup with the diagrams inside the battery compartments. Inserting the batteries incorrectly may result in permanentdamage to the units. During the setup process, place the wireless display and the outdoor sensors on a surface with 5-10feet between each sensor and the display. Only use Alkaline Batteries, rechargeable batteries may not work. Note: Donot mix old and new batteries. Do not mix alkaline, standard, or rechargeable batteries.1. It is important to allow sufficient light to reach the solar panel while activating the windsensor. Make sure the lights are on in the setup room and the solar panel is facing a 60Wlight bulb or brighter. Ensure the panel is not covered, then remove the black protective foilon the solar panel. Remove the tape covering the reset hole. Use the provided plasticreset rod to gently press the reset button once in the hole on the bottom of the sensor.2. Insert two "AA" size batteries into the rain sensor with the correct polarity.3. Insert two "C" size batteries into the thermo-hygro sensor with the correct polarity. Allow allsensors to run for two minutes.4. Insert three "C" size batteries into the wireless display with the correct polarity.NOTE: Every time the wireless display receives data from the sensors, the wireless iconswill blink once and then return to solid if the last transmission was successful. A windspeed or rainfall amount that reads "0" does not mean reception failure. It means that there was no wind or rain at thetime of the last measurement. The thermo-hygro sensor syncs with the wind and rain sensors and sends all outdoorsensor data to the display. The thermo-hygro sensor tries for 4 minutes to sync to the wind sensor and then 4 minutesfor the rain sensor. If not successful within 4 minutes, the thermo-hygro sensor will stop looking for the other sensors.5. Setup troubleshooting: If the sensor data fails to display for any of the outdoor sensors within 10 minutes, (“- - -“ isdisplayed), remove the batteries from all units for 1 minute and start the Setup procedure again at Step 1.Mounting the sensors and placement of the wireless display:IMPORTANT: Ensure that all of the sensor data can be received at the intended mounting locations before you drill mountingholes. The outdoor sensors have a wireless range of 200-feet. Keep in mind that the 200-foot range equates to an open-airscenario with no obstructions. Each obstruction (roof, walls, floors, ceilings, etc.) will reduce the range.Outdoor TemperatureOutdoor HumidityRainfall AmountIndoorTemperatureIndoor HumidityWind DirectionWind SpeedForecast Icon andWeather TendencyArrowsWind ChillTime and DatePressure History GraphBarometricPressurePress Reset Button onBottom of Wind Sensor(Solar Panel Must FaceLight)Product Registration:lacrossetechnology.com/support/register
