•Position you station six feet from other electronics and wireless devices. If you suspect RF
(radio frequency) interference, simply move your weather station a few feet.
WHAT IS DISTANCE | RESISTANCE | INTERFERENCE?
Distance:
•The maximum transmitting range in open air is over 400 feet (121.92 meters) between each
sensor and your station.
•Consider the signal path from your station to each sensor as a straight line.
•Consider the distance the station is from other electronics in the home.
Resistance:
•Each obstacle: walls, windows, vegetation, stucco, concrete, and large metal objects will
reduce the effective signal range by about one-half.
•Mounting your sensors on a metal fence can significantly reduce the effective signal range.
Interference:
•Consider electronics in the signal path between the sensors and your station.
•Simple relocation of the sensors or the station may correct an interference issue.
•Windows can reflect the radio signal.
•Metal will absorb the RF (radio frequency) signal.
•Stucco held to the wall by a metal mesh will cause interference.
•Transmitting antennas from: ham radios, emergency dispatch centers, airports, military
bases, etc. may cause interference.
•Electrical wires, utilities, cables, etc. may create interference if too close.
WEATHER STATION READINGS
WHAT IS THIS EXTRA SENSOR AREA?

TROUBLESHOOTING
BAR CODE: WHAT ARE THE BARCODES AND ID NUMBERS
ON MY SENSORS ON MY STATION?
•Did you know that your sensors will “lock” into your station?
•This ensures that the sensor readings are from your sensor and not a neighbors’.
•When you press and release your SENSOR button you will see your Station ID, your
Thermo-Hygro sensor ID, your Wind Speed sensor ID and your Rain sensor ID.
Note: If you have Extra Sensors connected to you station you will also see these ID’s.

18 | Page
•The sensor ID on the station should match your first six numbers on the barcode of that
sensor.
•These sensors will remain locked to your station until you manually delete them.
•The barcodes are also important identifiers for the La Crosse View™ app if you choose to
connect.
HOW DO I DELETE SENSOR ID NUMBERS?
In the rare event you need to replace your sensor, you will first need to delete the old sensor ID
from your station.
1. Remove batteries from your old sensor.
2. Press and release the SENSOR button to view your sensor ID number.
3. While viewing your sensor ID, hold the (-) button for 5 seconds to delete your old sensor ID.
Dashes will show for the ID number.
4. Your station will automatically begin searching for the new sensor.
5. Install batteries in your new sensor and allow up to three minutes for your new sensor
readings and ID to appear on your station.
FACTORY RESET: HOW DO I FACTORY RESET MY STATION?
•A factory reset will delete all sensor ID numbers and if connected, remove all Wi-Fi
connections.
•Basically, this is a great way to return your station to “out of the box” condition.
•This is more effective than removing all power for clearing out the station.
•All history records will be removed, so write down anything you want to keep.
To factory reset your station:
1. Hold the WIND ALERTS and LIGHT buttons together for 5 seconds.
2. When your station resets it will look for all sensors. Allow at least ten minutes to reacquire
the sensors.
Note: If operating connected, you will need to reconnect to Wi-Fi from the app.
WHY DOESN’T THE TEMPERATURE/HUMIDITY READINGS
ON MY STATION MATCH THE WEATHER REPORT?
•Your temperature and humidity readings are from your sensor at your location. Your local
reporting station can be miles away so readings will differ.

TEMP ACCURACY: WHY DOES MY THERMO-HYGRO SENSOR READ
INACCURATELY?
•The thermo-hygro sensor reads the environment. Since your Temperature/Humidity
readings come from the Wind/TH sensor they may occasionally be inaccurate if the sunlight
hits the sensor.
•If this is a common occurrence you can purchase an LTV-TH2 sensor and replace the
Temperature/Humidity Reading from the Wind/TH sensor.
HOW TO REPLACE THE TH READING FROM THE WIND TH SENSOR WITH
AN LTV-TH2?
The new Wind Speed, Wind Direction Sensor with Temperature/Humidity may cause inaccurate
temperature readings in some locations. Because of this, you have the option to remove the TH
sensor reading (from the LTV-WSDTH01) and adding an additional TH sensor to read in the
OUTDOOR area of the display.
1. Press SENSOR button once Station ID will show.
2. Press SENSOR button again ID WTH123 THW SENSOR will show.
3. Hold the MINUS (-) button for 5 seconds while viewing ID to delete ID WTH123.
To add a separate LTV-TH2 sensor:
•After deleting the TH sensor built into the Wind Sensor (ID: WTH123), press the SENSOR
button on the station to view ID, then press the + (PLUS) button to search.
•Press the TX button on the add-on sensor.
•Sensor Icon will show to indicate reading is coming from separate TH sensor.
WHAT DOES A READING OF “HI” OR “LO” MEAN?
•If your outdoor temperature reading shows “HI” or “LO”, check that your batteries are good.
•Overpower or underpowered batteries can cause this reading.
•If batteries are good, replace the outdoor sensor.
•If your temperature is fine but your humidity is reading “HI” or “LO” or dashes, your humidity
may be below 10% Relative Humidity. Your sensor does not read below 10% humidity.
TEMP INTERMITTANT: WHY DOES MY TEMP/HUMIDITY READING COME
AND GO?
•RF (radio frequency) communication may come and go occasionally. This can be normal in
some environments (e.g. moister climates).

20 | Page
•If a sensor goes out, please wait 2-4 hours for it to reconnect on its own. Please be patient
– these stations can reconnect on, after many hours out.
•RF (radio frequency) communication is not always 100% on. Certain temporary conditions
can cause it to go out for a time (e.g. 100% humidity).
If a miss happens:
•If sensor loses connection to the station for any reason, the station will show dashes after 30
minutes.
•The station will search for 5 minutes every hour to reconnect with sensor.
•Be sure you have good batteries. Manually search for your sensor.
Try this:
•Bring your sensor within 10 feet of your station and make sure it is connected to the station.
•After 15 minutes move the sensor into the next room with a wall between the sensor and the
station for 1 hour.
•If there is no loss of signal in that hour, move the sensor just outside.
•Continue moving the sensor back to its original location.
•If you lose connection, look for sources of interference.
HOW DO I CHANGE BETWEEN FAHRENHEIT AND CELSIUS?
•On your sensor, open the battery cover and press the F/C button. This will change the
temperature display on the sensor only.
•On your station enter the program menu to select Fahrenheit or Celsius temperature display
on the station.
WHY ARE MY WIND CUPS NOT SPINNING?
•Check for debris or ice preventing cups from moving.
•Check mounting location. Look for obstructions that prevent the wind from reaching the
sensor.
•In most cases, the wind sensor needs to be 4-6ft above the highest point on the roof in
order to clear nearby obstructions and read accurately.
•A 50-foot clearance in all directions is best.
•Push down firmly on the center of the cups to reseat them.
•Cups are replaceable.
CAN I REPLACE MY WIND CUPS?
Occasionally, a bad storm with hail or debris that will damage your wind cups. These are easily
replaced.
Replace wind cups:
1. Loosen the screw on side of cups
2. Remove cups
